Ouch.. not my ribeye

Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.

-Albert Einstein

I would just like to remind everyone that Einstein was not a nutrionist.

Josh Groban Singing at the Emmy’s

After listening to Paulson and Greenspan the last 72 hours I needed some joy in my life.

At least I got a smile out of this one:

Intelligence

“Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.”  – Salvador Dali

Jon Gibson

I love Jon Gibson’s music.  It seems to me he’s been working on this last album for way to long though.

Jon, we’re ready already.

Democrats vs Republicans

“O God, make the bad people good, and the good people nice”

-Prayer of a little English Girl (From ‘What’s so Amazing about Grace?’ by Philip Yancey)

Liberal has become such a negative word. From dictionary.com:

1. favorable to progress or reform

Anybody who wouldn’t want ‘progress’ is foolish. Let’s face it, the United States was founded on ‘progress and reform’. The reality is that ‘liberal’ has taken on a new meaning. An almost ‘if it feels good, do it’ mind-frame. I’m reminded of the recurring theme in Judges “In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” It’s the ‘liberals’ support of pro-choice and so called ‘gay-rights’ that have fundamentalist Christians so radically against so-called ‘liberals’.

Then we have those who claim to be a ‘social-liberal and fiscal-conservative’. This is sort of the easy way out of a discussion, but fundamentally impossible. You can’t support social programs without paying for them. If you’re a social-liberal you have to be willing to open you wallet.

If you’re pro-life, be pro-life. Being anti-abortion and pro-death penalty is not pro-life, it’s anti-abortion. Starting wars based on lies and fear is another issue altogether, I’m not even going to get into here.

Churches get to work, if you were fulfilling the call of Christ there would be no need for the social welfare programs in this country.

“The world is sleeping in the dark, that the church just can’t fight, ’cause it’s asleep in the light’ – (Asleep in the Light, by Keith Green)

“O God please, make the Democrats good, and the Republicans nice”

Evolution

“When Nature has work to be done, 
she creates a genius to do it.”

Attributed to both -Ralph Waldo Emerson and -Leonardo Da Vinci

Problem with Company Leaders

“strong charasmatic leaders can all to easily become the de facto reailty driving a company…  people worried more about the leader, what he would say, what he would think, what he would do than they worried about external reality and what it could do to the company “

 - Jim Collins “Good to Great”

McCain-Palin Anagrams

I love anagrams.

I had to check the McCain-Palin ticket to see what exactly could be derived from names… the results:

McCain-Palin = Panic in Calm

on the other hand:

Obama-Biden = Bob Idea Man

Did Phelps really win?

I was stoked to watch Phelps win the 100m butterfly.

Today, Yahoo reports ‘Photo’s prove Phelps won 100-meter butterfly’.

I thought that was old news?  Was there really a controversy?

I reviewed my DVR a few times at the different angles shown on TV.  I knew it was futile.  At best I was recording it at 29.97 frames per second.  Far too slow to catch an ‘out-touch’ of .01 second, in reality maybe it was closer than the .01, They don’t measure thousandths of seconds, it could have been .001, we’ll never know.  Even my new HD Sony HDR-CX7 will only record up to 60 fps.    Maybe next time Phelps can try to win in a little over .03 seconds so we can actually watch the ‘out touch’.
