Welcome to the blog of Connor Boyack, a 20-something web designer, political economist, and budding philanthropist.
I'm changing the world, one byte at a time.
photo credit: e-magic I rarely watch TV. Sometimes when I quilt I’ll turn on the TV to see if there’s anything on other than the normal degenerate filth. In the past few weeks I’ve seen some commercials that a car company is using to promote their vans which have flip-down TV screens, allowing you to [...]
photo credit: Megan Troyer While reading The Peacegiver by James L. Ferrell, I was impressed by part of an insightful conversation between two main characters in the book. They were discussing the topic of entitlements, as one of the characters, Ricky, felt he deserved to be loved and supported by his wife with whom he [...]
Some of you may have seen this letter circulating the internet already, but I received it yesterday for the first time. The letter, be it real or fictitious, makes an excellent point. We are giving away handouts to illegal immigrants at an alarming rate, depleting the reserves of resources intended for our own citizens. Perhaps [...]

(Victor Hugo, via Quoty) Our words, like our deeds, should be filled with faith and hope and charity, the three great Christian imperatives so desperately needed in the world today. With such words, spoken under the influence of the Spirit, tears can be dried, [...]
As the old adage goes, “Hindsight is always 20/20″. So often in life, I think we (or maybe it’s just me?) grow frustrated when we don’t get what we want, when we want it. We ask the Lord for things we desire (as we are counseled to do) yet wonder why He holds out on [...]

Gun control advocates naturally use such tragedies to their political advantage in an effort to enforce further gun control, citing the weapon as the cause of the crime. The media [...]
A few months ago I had the opportunity to visit a different ward where the Bishop gave a great talk, one sentence of which I wrote down to preserve in memory: The ultimate level of adoration is emulation. Powerful words.
photo credit: Daquella Let’s not kid ourselves. In a presidential election, our vote means nothing. Even in more local elections, whether it be for state or city government, our vote represents a very small portion of the total number of votes being cast on any given issue. The number of times an important issue has [...]
photo credit: nshepard The Washington Post reports on a recent bill signed by the Governor of Maryland: Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley signed into law yesterday a measure that would circumvent the Electoral College by awarding the state’s electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the most votes nationwide. The bill… makes Maryland the first [...]
