So, sing that headline to the tune of London Bridge. But then, maybe you scratch your head and wonder, “Nothing is a waste of time? What does that mean? Has Tony gone off the deep end? I can think of plenty of things that are a waste of time.” Yep. I said it. And I stand by it. So, I’ll … The rest of the story…

I watched a video, on a YouTube channel, where the artist calls himself “The Virtual Instructor.” And that particular video was about how drawing on the right side of your brain helps you draw better. You can click or tap the links, below, if you’d like to watch his suggestion. It’s based on the book, “Drawing On the Right Side … The rest of the story…
I just watched a video about wolves re-introduced into Yellowstone (The park. Not the show.) And the video producers showed how much those wolves changed the ecosystem. Yes, nature is amazing. And connected. But here’s how the person who shared the video described it… “🦩Ecosystem restoration hinges on supporting nature 🍁create a balance⚖️; biodiversity richness and ecological integrity With more … The rest of the story…
It was rainy day in Colorado. Just about this time of year, it was a cool mid-spring rain. But then the sun came out. And you should’ve seen the vivid full spectrum rainbow that popped out. That happens a lot in Colorado. What colors are in a full spectrum rainbow? Violet. Indigo. Blue. Green. Yellow. Orange. Red. And the seven colors are typically listed from the … The rest of the story…
This might be breaking news to some. But there are differences in opinions for why you can see fossil gaps in the strata around the world. Yeah, I’m not sure why someone would disagree with the idea that those gaps imply (at the very least) we not have gotten here through an evolutionary process. About 8 years ago, I called … The rest of the story…
In your own mind, do you think you can truly understand the universe? And I mean all its vastness, emptiness, and mysteries? I don’t believe you can. Because, in your own mind, there’s a tendency toward imagination. Imagination is great. I love to use it to create word pictures. But, when you spend too much time in your own mind, … The rest of the story…
The very first six days of creation existed, first, in the mind and imagination of God. And you can find reasons, all around this beautiful blue planet, to be amazed. From the sea creatures to birds to dinosaurs to man and woman. And it all took place in only 6 days. From God’s imagination to the end result creation. I … The rest of the story…
Imagine if you had the same kind of underwater “gear” as gills in fish. And imagine how much easier it would be to explore the waters on your next beach vacation. Or what you could find in local lakes and ponds. Well, stop imagining. Because humans DO the same “gear” as gills in fish. In fact, they’re not called something … The rest of the story…
When you peer deep into the world of microscopic life, it almost looks like science fiction. But it’s definitely non-fiction. And the story, of life, going on down there, was written by a brilliant author. Yes, there IS a story to even the microscopic life. Because it’s life. And there is NO life without a story. Because life requires information. … The rest of the story…
I didn’t decide to call my blog and podcast Rhyme and Reason just because I thought it sounded cool. It’s because those words represent what I call the poetic style of God. And God’s poetic style can be found all around you. There have been plenty of times when I wrote or talked about how poetic the Bible is. But … The rest of the story…
If you love butterflies (and you should), you’ve probably heard of the amazing annual Monarch butterfly migration. 3000 miles those tiny, fragile wings have to flutter. And how and why do they do it? Is that Monarch butterfly migration just a mysterious coincidence? Yeah, right. As I write this, it’s February 5, 2022. And I discovered that, on several calendars, … The rest of the story…
It’s so cool how we have the tools to peek into the microscopic world of chromosomes and DNA. Just think about that for a second. Because some of the most brilliant minds who ever lived on planet Earth were only able to imagine those things. But now you and I can just type a few words into a browser and … The rest of the story…
He said this. “The universe appears to be, like, 13.8 billion years old. Earth is about 4.5 billion years old. In another half billion years, or so, the sun will expand. And probably evaporate the oceans. And make life impossible on Earth. Which means that if it had taken consciousness 10% longer to evolve, it would never have evolved at … The rest of the story…
Convergent evolution. Mash those two words together and what do you get? Convolution. I’m sure that’s not what so-called evolutionary scientists want you to do with those words. But, just for fun, I’m gonna do it. Because my wife and I share a common ancestor. But we don’t share that common ancestor with our pets. That’s just silly to think. … The rest of the story…
Hmm…let’s talk about a big bang. Sounds like fun. Right? I mean who doesn’t like the bang-up sound of a drum? Not Todd Rundgren. In fact, he wrote and sang a song about it back in the 80’s. I don’t want to work. I just want to bang on the drum all day. And I don’t want to play. I … The rest of the story…
There’s first-hand information. And there’s second-hand information. And those can both be eyewitness accounts of something. But then there’s mutual information. And, in a way, it’s an eyewitness account of something (or someone) even more important. I know. My description of mutual information sounds cryptic. But it’s because I first wanna share a little information I found in a social … The rest of the story…
A few years ago I wrote about a protoplanet named “Vesta.” And how it might have some clues about how life on Earth might have formed? Scientists discovered some areas of impact on what they call a “minor planet.” And the scientists said this impacts show collisions with carbon rich asteroids. Then, they emphasized that carbon is the essential building block … The rest of the story…
What do supernova remnants and stars have in common? Oops. When I say “stars,” I mean the so-called Hollywood stars. What do they have in common with supernova remnants? Well, nothing, really. Except that I’m talking about them both right now. And that’s because, in my serpentine sense of irony, I found a connection. It’s sort of a polar opposites … The rest of the story…
One week from today is Christmas 2021. And in just about every part of the world there are Christians who will celebrate the birth of Jesus. But have you ever stopped to think (or even thought about it without stopping) how that celebration is unique to humans? No animals, birds, fish, or reptiles can be found putting up Christmas trees. … The rest of the story…
Newsflash! You are not an accident. So, don’t believe or trust anyone who monkeys around with the facts. Because they have an agenda that leads to eternal loneliness and torment. It should bring you JOY to know you are not an accident. Because if you’re just some sort of trained ape, what hope do you have? But maybe you wonder … The rest of the story…
