This blog used to be the reactions of a reader of the conservative Catholic journal First Things to the many fine articles to be found therein. Now it's just another minor blog of staircase wit, from just another minor blogger who doesn't realize that blogging is dead. About the only notable thing about me is that I am a Christian conservative who loathes creationism in all its forms. Enjoy your visit.

Remembering the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, pt 1
In the weeks immediately following this terrible disaster, I searched YouTube for Japanese citizen journalism videos of the events. As technologically advanced as Japan is, they weren't hard to find. With the aid of Google's translation service, I was able to figure out what was going on in most of the vids, and repost them to my LiveLeak account. Over the next few days, I'd like to share several of them with you. In case the embeds don't work, just double-click on them to go to LiveLeak and watch there.
