Re: Poll: Putin and Ukraine

Honestly, the port and buffer against NATO seem like the only legitimate claims from a secular perspective. We can argue all day over what NATO was intending but I listened to his speech on weapons and it was a fairly logical case for invasion. De-nazification? Yeah right… To be fair, Ukraine has o...

Re: MennoNet and Genealogy

This past week, I've started digging into my genealogy for the first time. I'm using FamilySearch.org and its sub-site RelativeFinder.org Wife: has anyone else read the privacy policy or the terms of service on family search? It’s kind of an odd seeming website and makes me wonder what the Mormons ...

Re: "Give to whomever asks you": voluntary speeding fines

Wife: it seems like something somebody should at least mention to the local police, because even if it doesn’t have legal ramifications, somebody’s boss might not be too happy, and it might not even be the employees fault.

Re: Thinking about shaving my head... sort of...

Wife: Point out to your wife that if you look absolutely horrible, you will look more normal within a week or two. Try doing it when you’re sick or not planning on going anywhere anyway, like when all the Mennonite guys started growing out their beards during Covid.

Wife: Does anybody have any recommendations for free to low cost online resources or DVDs or classes for learning/practicing ASL? I want to brush up on it as well as teach my children so they can communicate with one of their relatives. Looking for something clean and ideally a Christian curriculum ...
