I don’t think I’ve done one of these yet, or recently at any rate. So here’s a Wordle for this blog:
So, what conclusions can one draw from the word frequency? I’ll leave that to a brave commenter.

The faith of Christ is the faith of the common man. An intellectual has to overcome his own precious precociousness to understand it. Even those who mock the faith by calling it a “meme” pay homage to its enduring power and infinite appeal. It is a model that explains as much of the universe as …

With the exception of numerous jokey references to the gravel tones of the ubiquitous voice over man, I don’t think film trailers get much love in comparison to the rest of the cinematic offering.

Thursday 6th of May is going to to be an important day in my life. It’s the last day of my anti-depressant use. There was also some kind of election, but that’s possibly for another day. The past two weeks have been among the most personally productive of my life, especially when the necessity of …
