Winter Wonderland

Yesterday at work, people told me the weather report did not look good for today. I was warned that the agency might be closed due to the weather. But it was bright and sunny and didn't look at all threatening. Still, after the 7th person who told me it did not look good, I looked it up online and saw that they were right ( Read more... )

All this talk of snow days makes me jealous! We've been in the 40s for the past couple of weeks, so we've got next to no chance of a snow day.

Although this is probably good, because last time we had snow the Seattlites all demonstrated their ineptitude driving in it. I barely missed one major accident because someone didn't know how to drive in this snow..

I want a snow day! I heard the freezing rain during the night. But hence my job goes on. Roads where fine, fun part was getting the ice off my car. I made it on time and left at my normal time.

I used the morning to watch Zeitgeist. I really wasn't that impressed. It was just an hour long zerg rush (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=zerg+rush). I was able to smack down a lot of the history/mythology bs--Jesus was not born in Decemember ("and lo there were shepherd abiding in a field"), Ixion wasn't a God, but a man who had sex with a cloud and got hit with a thunderbolt, historians of the time of Jesus were patronized by the rich and powerful. Why would they bother writing about a slave religion which pissed off their patrons?--and I'm sure that people with more experience in the field could punch holes in the 911 structural stuff (here's one: http://www.snopes.com/rumors/pentagon.htm... )

I get that you're able to find lots of stuff in that movie that just doesn't ring true. I do agree that the logic is faulty, esp. re: religion. Obviously, most christian scholars will disagree w/ some of those details, as did I. but I thought enough of the similarities were there to make it interesting ( ... )
