Firing a kiln, at least my old kiln, can be nerve wracking. New kilns are often computer controlled, complex tools that can be programmed to raise, hold, and lower temperatures at will, in almost infinite

variety. My kiln has exactly one switch with four settings, one of which is “off”.

In a bisque firing, the first firing, mechanically and chemically combined water are driven off and clay that can be slaked down, becomes the more permanent ceramic. The bisque firing also burns off

any organic matter that Read More

Old Jasper Blankenship went out to hunt deer the other day, the same way he’s done for decades now.

Deer season has changed a lot for Jasper over the many years he’s been at it. As a kid, he couldn’t wait until he was old enough to get a license, because he wanted to bring a buck home to show his family. Not just any buck, either, but a big one.

As a middle-aged man, he turned to the technology of hunting and wanted to learn about the newest Read More

Fr. Glenn: A Universally-Accepted Virtue

by

Fr. Glenn Jones

Well, the election’s (finally!) over and—as with every presidential election for the last several cycles—the results are being contested and accusations of shenanigans are a’flyin … both ways. Yet, wherever power is to be had, we know all too well that temptation to corruption is an ever-present specter, no matter the person or position. For we who are a bit older, the Watergate scandal is perhaps the most memorable—the image of a president resigning because of it … boarding Marine One for that one final flight in disgrace.  Since then … hanging chads, collusion accusations, Read More
