Shortly after EscapePod got started a whole host of short story podcasts popped up, but most of them didn't last very long. In some cases like, Variant Frequencies this was sad.
What we have Learned Today
Whenever I have an experience like I did this morning, The Vegitales song pops in my head.
Some Thoughts about NFP from an NFP teacher
I could talk a lot here about how NFP is not "Catholic Birth Control," and how what we teach encourages couple to be open to life, but first of all that kind of sounds like sour grapes even to me, and second of all that is not what I want to talk about. Besides you have probably heard all of that before.
Writing Challenge For The Space Minded.
As Douglas Adams reminded us, "Space is big…" To travel across the distances needed to get anywhere meaningful will take us a long time. Even our nearest planet, with our current technology, is going to cost of several months time.
