Blogimus Maximus: Can I speak to the manager?
http://blogimusmaximus.blogspot.com/2006/05/can-i-speak-to-manager.html
Late Antiquity's Finest Blogger. Sunday, May 21, 2006. Can I speak to the manager? I can't remember when and how my opinion of the Iraq war changed, but it wasn't helped when I dug up a statistic that should not exist. I was reminded of it by a blogger. Who noted the first Canadian woman to die in Afghanistan. But when the mere shock is over, the question that follows in my mind is: "who's giving the orders here? The reputable-seeming bishop has really just got back from a dinner of roasted children, the...

Blogimus Maximus: January 2005
http://blogimusmaximus.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Late Antiquity's Finest Blogger. Monday, January 31, 2005. Well, the job is officially over. You know what that means: plenty of sleep tonight! Yes, long-term thinking was never my strong suit. Anyways, there's a blog. At Disputations about free will.oh, wait, that's a blog about the smallest pistol in the world. Sorry, but I had to link to it anyway - who can pass up this gem, which Steven Riddle rightly characterizes as a work of genius? KEEPS BAD BOYS AWAY. Kinda like my blog. Free will is certainly a...

Late Antiquity's Finest Blogger. Tuesday, May 31, 2005. In Middle English; this became "an adder"). But this is of little use to anyone but an Old or Middle English scholar. The real meat of etymology is in breaking down the compound. The vast majority of such words in English are still. In other words, we find ourselves using all sorts of complicated words, of whose meaning we have only the vaguest inkling. What, after all, does "complicated" really mean? Such are the dangers of learning words from cont...

Blogimus Maximus: July 2005
http://blogimusmaximus.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
Late Antiquity's Finest Blogger. Friday, July 29, 2005. You know, it strikes me that we talk about this or that event being "probable" or "likely" or the reverse, without necessarily considering what that means. I guess the best way to illustrate this is to ask, "what's the probability of a coin landing heads-up? What laws govern such circumstances, and how much do I understand of them, either explicitly or through an intuition born of experience? Posted by Charles Wynn permalink. Thursday, July 28, 2005.

Blogimus Maximus: February 2005
http://blogimusmaximus.blogspot.com/2005_02_01_archive.html
Late Antiquity's Finest Blogger. Tuesday, February 08, 2005. I suppose I won't be blogging during Lent - I mean, this is my first Lent as a Catholic, and it'll be enough of an effort anyway without wasting all this time blogging. Do I have anything to post in my last two pre-Lenten days? Fast, it was hardly so obvious that there was something terribly wrong with breaking that one "little" rule. If fasting was no longer seen as integral to Christianity, not-fasting would logically not be seen as un-Ch...

Albertus Minimus: Back out of hospital
http://albertusminimus.typepad.com/albertus_minimus/2006/04/back_out_of_hos.html
Just like St Albertus Magnus only, er, not so great. And not a saint. But apart from that. To keep you going. Farewell CCAM. We won't miss you. Well, he's back. Here we go again. Back out of hospital. All the stars of heaven's field. God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Islam and its discontents. It all ends in failure. It's all binary to me. It's the culture, stupid. One, holy, catholic, apostolic. Our furry, scaly, feathery friends. Out of the mouths of babes. The category when no other category will do.
