" This is Colonel John Konrad, United States Army. Attempted evacuation of Dubai ended in complete failure. Death toll... too many..." I sit here in shame. A wall surrounds my deepest thoughts, as it does my mission. I make my morning coffee to see a city in chaos. » Continue Reading

Online, Orthodoxy has grown! Okay, so this is good. It's good that the Holy and Righteous Church is expanding online. But, it also gets into the hands of the wrong people. People will listen to wolves in the hide of a sheep like, say, Brother Nathanel. He's an 'Orthodox' monk who posts online about Jews, and how the Jews control the World, or whatever. He spreads hate on his platform. Then, you ha... » Continue Reading

"The earth rejoices and the heavens are glad, O venerable Saints of America, praising your labors and lives, your spiritual fortitude and purity of heart. By driving away a multitude of demons and enlightening many people with the light of the Orthodox Faith you have confirmed our land. Rejoice, O mountains of Pennsylvania, Leap for joy, O waters of the Great Lakes, Ris » Continue Reading

I sit here, remembering what I've done. My throne, my chair. I look at the medals I have ordained on my rotting desk. I am taken back to the place I never want to go back to. A old Polaroid, Iraq, Two-Thousand and Four. Fallujah. Two men, one of them me, in a vest and helmet. Desert Camouflage. The other man, the same way. Mixed camo. We were positioned on a building near a road. » Continue Reading

I know about the Rodney King riots of 1991. Sure, maybe justified, but the beating of a random trucker almost to death, destruction of thousands of dollars of property, and in turn, ruining community relations between one people and another (Koreans and African-Americans) wasn't really worth it in the long run. I don't think the ICE riots are worth it. It's terrible what the current administration... » Continue Reading

One of the main aspects of Cambodia that I admire is their music. Their wedding music involves several Khmer instruments, instruments like the Chapei Dang Veng, the Roneat Ek, and the Tro. I think the wedding music is one of Cambodia's most outspoken form of traditonal music, with percussion patterns that of Indian traditional music, hypnotic and uniform, with the Chinese-like fiddle music. It ma... » Continue Reading

Yesterday, I found out about reports that the Egyptian Government wanted to close St. Catherine's Monastery, the oldest Orthodox monastery in the World for tourism purposes. If there was any Orthodox Christians who are still fuming over the possible eviction of the monks at St. Catherine's Monastery, it turns out those had no merit, as it was later found that the Egyptian court ruled the monastery... » Continue Reading

I remember middle school fondly. Sure, a few crappy teachers here and there, but it was a fun time. It's where I learned how to play the drums. However, what I will miss dearly, along with my friendships and the memories there, was my music taste then. It may sound weird, but it was back when I kind of cared about electronic music as a whole. There was a lot of techno and Aphex Twin that shaped my... » Continue Reading

If I ever have an opportunity to go to another nation, it would be Cambodia. Despite it's reputation for, you know, creeps wanting to get their rocks off... I want to visit for it's culture, for it's landmarks, for it's history. I've found Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos as very interesting countries. Independence Monument, » Continue Reading

On a cold, gloomy day, Theodoros, after a hard day of building a camp with his brothers-in-arms, lied down onto his ramshackle sleeping bag. As he drifted away from sleep, he uttered out in solemn prayer, " Into Thy hands, O Lord," he said, "I commend my soul and body. Do thou thyself bless me, have mercy upon me, and grant me life eternal. Amen." He soon drifted off into the sea of sleep. He had » Continue Reading

Today, I was talking with a friend online. We were talking about crappy American towns, exploring them in Google Street View, and joking around. We had came across a church in Ohio, where it was one of these churches with no icons, no paintings, an ugly cross and no pews, just cushioned chairs. On top of that, it was one of those churches with a rock band. Drums, with a shield to muffle the sound.... » Continue Reading
