Sitting along the South China Sea

Yesterday, I was sitting along the South China Sea and thinking about a book that I read earlier this year called The Promise of Trinitarian Theology and one of the passages was about the richness of God's being and how everything in turn because God is Trinity is different in life. We no longer can look at things the same.......

Thoughts on Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas

My thoughts? I think that he is brilliant! I've made myself read through Plato and other philosophers and it's downright fascinating how Thomas can quote from them and then in turn relate it to Christian theology and doctrine without blinking an eye. Aquinas is fascinating in many respects both as a philosopher himself and a theologian and it's hard to distinguish the two. So, should you read Thomas Aquinas?? The answer is yes!

Final Cut Pro X

Final Cut Pro X is the most awful software I've every used in my life! I've been a Final Cut Pro user since version 1 and before that I was a Premiere user on the Mac. I've never seen such a goof up piece of garbage! Sure you can edit with it and make sense out of your movie scenes/clips, but it's a far cry from being a professional app. Along with Final Cut Pro X Apple has discontinued Apple Color, which with all it's faults was a great program(along with Shake). So, which leaves me no option but returning to Adobe or Avid, because Final Cut Pro 7 is almost outdated as an editing app!


The bottom line is that most professionals have left Apple to the kids and iPhone junk! Apple in my mind has turned to less creative stuff and its materialistic junk. Creative professionals need a company that will stand behind them and Apple has turn out to be not that type of company. So bye, bye Apple!!

Back from Hong Kong

Hong Kong was lovely, but the people there are down right stinking rude. They will cut in front of you in a coffee line, make fun of your chinese, etc. Lovely city, but crappy people(character). Lovely country though of old and new.
