Ink Smudges: February 2008
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 05 February, 2008. Two thousand feet of rock. The rector of my parish has, literally, laid out a challenge for the congregation during this season. He has asked us to build a labyrinth. In the meantime, Chuck wants us to turn the field into a place for prayer. The more I think about it, the more I think it's a great idea. For those of you unfamiliar with San Antonio, it's dry, rocky country. There are stones. Can find a rock or two. or five, or ten. If you'...

Ink Smudges: two thousand feet of rock--finished!!!
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2008/06/two-thousand-feet-of-rock-finished.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 26 September, 2008. Two thousand feet of rock- finished! This post has been overdue since March. Better late than never). It took a lot of work, but. we have a labyrinth! Here's how it started: with an empty field. We staked out the widths of the paths with string and flags, and asked the congregation to come put a rock next to one of the flags. People of all ages helped, with rocks big and small. Come walk with us! What a great project! A long blog silence.

Ink Smudges: January 2008
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 28 January, 2008. The Golden Compass review. I've been asked to renew my series (called "margin smudges" in our parish newsletter) in which I review and comment on books I'm reading, and specifically to start with Philip Pullman's. Is the first of a three-volume work entitled. It's a thoroughly enjoyable film. The Sydney Morning Herald. To [Pullman], the loss of sexual innocence is not a tragedy; it’s the springboard to a productive and virtuous adult...

Ink Smudges: October 2007
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 31 October, 2007. The Lord has given us a son. We're going to call him. Mom and baby are still in the hospital. Pictures to follow when I get a chance. And a cool story or two. Links to this post. 18 October, 2007. Death of a preacher man. One of my seminary classmates died yesterday. That's one of those things you know is going happen eventually, but it's never welcome news when it gets to you. His name was Bill Wiseman. My feedback to him was this: in the...

http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2008/12/non-spiritual-ranting-and-oscar-goes-to.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 17 December, 2008. Non-spiritual ranting: and the Oscar goes to. Then there was the presentation of the awards themselves. Just like today, there would be little clips from the movies that had been nominated, and then that moment of tension while the envelope was opened: “and the winner is…”. Do you want to know the best movie of 2005? It may even be the best science fiction movie ever made. Okay, enough waxing rhapsodic. I’ll bet you a nickel you can...

Ink Smudges: Tony Dungy's book
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2010/02/tony-dungys-book.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 02 February, 2010. This was my monthly article for the parish newsletter in September of '08. Forgot to post it here, and it seems timely given the Colts are playing this Sunday. As we head back into the school year and the beginning of football season, this month’s margin smudges are in the pages of some light reading appropriate for this time of year:. Quiet Faith: The Principles, Practices, and Priorities of a Winning Life. Thoughts on this years matchup?

Ink Smudges: November 2007
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 09 November, 2007. New Daddy Brain = no blog posts. There are some things in life that affect you whether or not you see them coming. The syndrome I cheerfully call "New Daddy Brain" falls into that category. You know the symptoms: heavy-lidded eyes, rumpled clothing, coffee mug permanently attached to left hand (regardless of how hot or how empty the mug is), a tendency to wander into rooms and then look around in bemusement, wondering why you're there.

Ink Smudges: More thoughts on college football
http://schereschewsky.blogspot.com/2009/12/more-thoughts-on-college-football.html
St Sam used a typewriter; I use a fountain pen. 11 December, 2009. More thoughts on college football. I wondered out loud at this time last year if this would be the year I quit caring about college football. Turns out I was right. Watching the Javelinas was like that this year. Okay, maybe we didn't make the first down and we have to punt, but Markeith made his block, did you see that? Second, let's just call it what it is. The BCS is not a playoff. It's a. Last year was a mess. Nine teams with a re...
