Music Reccommendation

 I know I'm born in the 21st century, but there's an awful lot of music that I like that isn't from this century. Sure, I enjoy movie soundtracks. Who doesn't? However, sometimes I don't want to listen to Lord of the Rings, Narnia, or Pirates of the Caribbean. I turn to, most often (at any rate), to one of the groups listed below. This is a list of all the bands/artists I enjoy listening to, 20th and 21st century.


Newsboys (original and current)

Audio Adrenaline

Keith and Kristyn Getty

DC Talk

Johnny Cash

Third Day

Weird Al Yankovic

Carmen

Nickel Creek

Andrew Peterson

3 Heath Brothers


Comment on your favorite band or artist, whether it be on this list or not.

On Flags

A Short Commentary on the Flags of the World Have you ever noticed why there's not really any flag of any nation on the globe that has any purple on it? This is because when countries were forming early on, the color purple was expensive (same reason only emperors of Rome only ever had purple clothing, because purple dye from the shellfish in Tunisia was expensive.). Now, that is understandable, but what about the countries that have flags now that have no purple? Well, some people just aren't creative. And we can agree that the USA has the best flag EVER?! Scotland's is interesting (maybe I'm just biased, being of Scottish stock m'self), but look at Ukraine's:     How boring is that?! A yellow stripe and a blue stripe. Nothing. Else. Italy, Ireland, Germany, these country's flags have one thing in common: They are boring, because nobody really thought about the design. (In my opinion, at least.) Now I know that the colors often mean something, but still, on...

Knights Templar

  The Arrest of the Knights Templar This post is a little late in coming.       There isn't many people who don't know about the Knights Templar. Two weeks ago, an anniversary pertaining to this holy order of knights was on the calendar, though not many people might know about it. This was the date of the arrest of every single French Templar in the Order.      The Order of the Knights Templar was founded in Jerusalem in 1118, or 1119. The exact date is uncertain. Its full name was the Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon. The name varies as to which source you use. In the beginnings of their history, they were called the Poor Fellow-soldiers of Jesus Christ, then later on, the Knights of the Temple of Solomon. The names were merged later on, and the simplified version was the Knights Templar.      First off, the Templars were very strict, but through their tough and frugal ways of living, became basically the shock troo...
