Nielsen’s Nook

It’s easy to make people watch — just blow up a car, slit someone’s throat. The hard part is making them watch while also making them think about what exactly it is that they’re watching.

Well… Whew.  We’re back…  Nielsen’s Nook is the same blog all 3 of my readers have come to love. :-)  Now it is hosted at Slicehost (a dedicated VPS), which means you should notice a much faster, snappier presentation.  I got so tired of the sluggishness of my old shared host (and their gestapo antics — “comply or die you lowly customer”).

I’ll be back with more Nook posts soon.  My study in Romans continues…

If you are reading this, you have found us at the new (and we hope improved) Nielsen’s Nook.

Please note the new URL: http://nielsensnook.com

Happily I am free of blogger. With the new additions they have been doing with the “beta” (trans - doesn’t work) version of blogger, I have not been able to access my blog consistently for some time. So we are on to Word Press.

Please let me know what you think about the new blog and features (especially if something does not work).

The picture in the header is one I took as we were leaving our old apartment. That little dandelion is growing out of a minuscule hole in the concrete and if that was not miraculous enough, it was growing around the tire that had almost ended its life. That is the picture of my life, being lived as it were as the existential dandelion.
