Yes, even us rightwingers like Moleskine!

And organic milk, Whole Foods and even Mini Coopers (yes, I’m thinking that it might be my next car — preferably the nightfire red). What’s this confession all about? Well, apparently, Glenn Beck freaked out the lefties by being spotted using a Moleskine. And evidently, Moleskines are the domain of the left:

Glenn Beck is a racist who is encouraging people to harm liberals. The fact that he likes moleskines is shocking to me. They are associated with liberal minded, intellectuals. Not the people he appeals to. This makes me almost want to thow away all my moleskines and never use them again.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I’ve been using them for years! I love my Moleskine notebooks and used them throughout the years at Westminster (I like the Moleskine Squared Notebook), they are great for taking notes. I also carry around the smaller Moleskine Square Notebook Pocket. I’ve had it since 2004. I’m currently using the grid notebooks for writing a Bible study (the Gospel of John). I love the pocket in the back, very convenient to store my index cards with to do lists and questions I need to answer. (BTW, when in public, I don’t use my notebook with an Apple computer, but I do use it with my iTouch, which has an ESV Bible app).
I like Moleskins so much, I even bought the ESV Moleskin Bible (the ESV Journaling Bible), but was bummed it didn’t have a back pocket for notes.
BTW, the Field Notes linked to in the article looks tempting (I like that they’re made in the USA), if they make it to a Barnes and Noble or Borders near me, I might buy them as well. Sorry, lefties but you guys can’t have the cute notebooks to yourselves, they belong to us as well :-)

One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1.   She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life.  A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments. The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others. Through it, I have seen people reach out

The print is too small in the Journaling Bible, I’m finding. Besides, I don’t write in Bibles.
Myself, I don’t use moleskines but, instead, as my short-term memory becomes less reliable, I carry around just a pocket-sized spiral tablet for keeping temporary reminders.
One of the BHT guys wrote this, which isn’t too different than praying for someone’s death? -
“I’ve been saying lately that the pharmaceutical industry should advertise on Glenn Beck’s show in hopes that liberals will boycott their products.”

hm, i thought that advertisers were pulling their own commercials from beck’s show (because he’s an idiot) without any pressure from consumers.
