Thanks for all the fish.
Since I basically never post and, with a couple of exceptions, just seem to be using this as a RSS feed for my web comics, I am turning off my account here. It won't actually die until my current year runs out in October, but I won't be checking any more. Feel free to keep in touch via email or Facebook. Thank you for the past decade to anyone ( Read more... ) -
WARNING: Contains theology
I have always considered, when the Bible says that God created the world, that He created all space and time. And therefore He exists outside of both. I think that His name reflects this as does Jesus' statement of 'Before Moses was, I am.' Depsite standing there talking to the Jews, He also exists before Moses was around at the same instance ( Read more... ) -
Sick of Divorce
I wish they would just change the vows from 'death do us part' to 'as long as it isn't inconvenient'. Might as well be up front about it all.
I do not believe in love at first sight, though I do believe in lust at first sight.
I don't care how old fashion it sounds, there is a reason for courtship taking a year or two. -
Asians Are Special
We were just doing the 2010 Census. Interesting detail about race (ignoring the Hispanic mess): If you are Black or White, just check your box and move on. But if you are Asian, are you Chinese? Japanese? Cambodian? Fiji, maybe? Why they need to know what area the Asians come from ( Read more... ) -
Dealing with Borders Digital Audio Books
My father asked for MP3 books for Christmas. After much searching, I finally found a site I thought I could trust that would let me download some MP3s. After I had selected and purchased the books and got to the download page, you bother to mention that I need special software to use this MP3 file. Special software for MP3s? This reeks of a scam, ( Read more... ) -
Laugh of the day
I'm signing up for a corporate AMEX card. They want a password. The description follows and, mind you, this includes a 4-level strength meter, so you know when it is a good one ( Read more... ) -

A few days ago after Liddy was called up before Congress, I thought about delurking and doing a quick rant about the absurdity of beating up Liddy. Of course, by the time I actually had spare time at home to do it, I had moved to the 'why bother' phase. Catching up on the last comics shows that xkcd has my back at least on one of the points. -

Cool! I just noticed that Studio Foglio has WHAT'S NEW with Phil & Dixie online now! They're doing regular posts just like for Genius Girl. Um, wait, since January 2007? Why didn't someone else mention this to me earlier?!?!? -

Ok, so having a police light in your car if you are not a LEO is probably illegal. But what about a laser pointer that alternates between red and blue light? If you had a slow car ahead of you blocking the fast lane, you could aim it for a second at its rear view mirror. The driver would have a brief impression the light, panic and get over, ( Read more... )
