Dancy Dancy
So, Thursday night was spent with two awesome friends, Beth and James, and we learned 3 medieval dances with fabulous people from the SCA. I liked the Black Alman; it was march-y and easy to keep track of, unlike Grimstock. Oooowweee but Grimstock is a rough-and-tumble, spiteful little English country dance. There was another one, an Italian one ( Read more... ) -

Cirque Berserk
WOW. Wow. All I can say is "Wow." Last night I took my bestest friend in the whole wide world to go see Cirque Berserk up in Los Angeles.

Transhumanism Now!
ME: Well, that's one of the big arguments that transhumanism faces: where is the soul? Is it housed in the body, or solely the mind?
Kev: Yeah, but if we could clone without all the damn politics, then I could put my mind/soul into a new body every 50 years and live forever.
ME: Yes, but what if the body holds the soul? Even a clone with no ( Read more... ) -
