Last night I spent some time watching the heavyweight boxing title fight. Boy! Was it boring. Wladimir Klitschko was simply using his size 6 feet 7 inches to jab his opponent Sultan Ibragimov who is a mere 6 feet. When I watch boxing, I like to see how fighters adjust to each other and how courageous the fighters are. The Sultan was merely outsized however I did see that he had more heart to at least make the fight competitive. Glass chin Wlad was nothing more than an overgrown bully who didn't show any skill but rather dominated his opponent with his size. The heavy weight division is currently composed of boxers who are simply...medicore. It was a waste of my time. I still think Samuel Peter has the most promise. Till next time...zzzz!

For Valentine's Day, I bought a bag of chocolates for each kid and a large box of chocolates for my wonderful wife Michelle. Chocolate has a special place of endearment in the Moses household. You will always find some chocolate or something that contains chocolates. You name it and we have it like chocolate ice cream, chocolate syrup for Seth's sudden cravings for chocolate milk, chocolate chip mint ice cream for Ms. Tabitha, chocolate cookies, and on and on. I bought all of these chocolates at a Lindt store which is at the Rio in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Everyone in the family including myself and Patricia were enjoying the creamy chocolates for dessert after we had our Valentine's Day dinner. The dinner consisted of french fries, chicken strips and nuggets, a double cheeseburger and a McChicken. Yup That's right! We had McDonald's for dinner. I still haven't opened my bar of chocolate which is a Chili flavored dark chocolate. I will probably dig into...

For the last week and a half, I have been driving to Shady Grove metro station and then taking the red line metro to Metro Center and switch over to the blue line metro. I take the blue line metro to L'Enfant Plaza Metro. This trip takes me around 90 minutes. Other than being away from my family for 3 hours and getting up at 5 am, I have been enjoying my commute. The metro trip is a blast since I sit in the seat and ride the Metro. I have don't have to worry about getting stuck in traffic, or make rude hasty judgments who is good driver and who is not. I have also started to enjoy my job. I do a lot of technical stuff like doing analysis on the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) or write Java code or XML. It's been good. I don't have to worry about deadlines. The thing I realized is that you have to be motived with your work or will hate it. This is important when you work as an employee with the US Government since US Government officials are assigned hi...

This morning the Moses family went to Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC. I wanted my son Seth to see dinosaur bones and my daughter Tabitha to see the Hope Diamond . While we enjoyed the whole day, I was amazed how Smithsonian, a US Government Institution, pushes the concept of evolution. There was an Evolution Theatre and various kiosks which were showing plant, horse and other evolutionary ideas to young minds. I don't believe that evolution is a scientific fact but it merely a scientific theory which has alot of holes. While I was going through the exhibit, I was amazed how God created so many types of animals. Animals that are large, small. Animals that fly, walk on land and swim. In the end, I was glad my children saw the animal bones and that they were young enough NOT to understand the evolutionary propaganda which you (if you are work in the US) and I pay for through our tax dollars. There is something wrong with that pic...

As many of you know, I started my new job three weeks ago. At my previous job, I use to get at 8:30am and leave my house at 9:30am. I would start working from 10:30am to 8pm. At my new job, I get at 5 or 5:30am and I start working from 7:45am to 4:00pm. As you can see I am morphing (not my choice) from a late night animal to an early bird. Chirp, Chirp...wait it's too early. Where is my Starbucks ?

I am currently in Oklahoma and life here is quite different. Some of things that are different in Oklahoma: People are "super" nice. Traffic is sparse Gas is cheap Housing is cheap Handful of high rise building in the downtown area Sales taxes is around 8% University of Oklahoma fans are everywhere *yuck* If we are to move here in a few months then I could see why Lord wants us to move here. Saints here having been praying for people who can speak Spanish since the church is in a Latin neighborhood and they want to do outreach in the community. I don't speak the language but Michelle can. I have been praying that she uses it before she forgets it. The meeting also needs young families. The couple I am staying with are great. They have opened up their home and they truly have the gift of hospitality. I pray my wife and I can open up our home for other saints when they are in need of a roof over their heads. Anyway that's all for now.

As I was listening to the Sunday School today from the book of Joshua , I was struck that everyone in the room loves Jesus Christ. In our meeting, we have toddlers like my daughter Patricia, who is almost 1 year old, to Brother Garnes who is in his mid-nineties. We have East Indians, like myself, Palestinians, Americans, like my wife Michelle, West Africans, Chinese, Caribbean folks, a Armenian and a Romanian. We are a mini United Nations (UN). Unlike the UN where nothing significant is accomplished, we as believers fellowship in Christ. We are also united in Christ. I was thinking about Br. Garnes. He has lived through World War I, II, Korean War, Vietnam War and the Gulf war. He may not understand today's generation and how they think or how they dress. He may not know what a blog is or what is so special about Facebook.com . I don't know how people thought during World War I, II and the other wars. Yes I can get a feel for it by reading history books. I might k...
