Don’t Boar Me
Anæsthesia is something that makes everybody nervous. For many of us, it’s not the fear of death that bothers us, although I’d be lying if I said that wasn’t present. No, it’s the fear of mockery that makes the thought of undergoing anæsthesia nearly unbearable.
But seriously, folks. In this case the dentist actually profits from his […]
Renaissance Man
Of all the people who you would not expect to be completing a Ph.D. in Astrophysics, I suspect that someone like Brian May would be at the top of the list (was that awkwardly worded or what?). Nonetheless, there he is, dealing with some unfinished business nearly thirty years later.
He is a guitarist, and a damned […]
Harry Potter Spoilerama
Annoying plot points:
Why would Voldemort leave his last remaining Horcrux so vulnerable that the near-squib Neville Longbottom could kill it with a single blow while his head was on fire?
After protecting the locket Horcrux with so many spells, enchantments, ghouls, ghosts, poisons and charms (not to mention on an island in the middle of a […]
It’s Good to be Home
Getting everything moved here was easier than I thought it would be, even though I had to upload old posts from two different platforms and two different sites.
I wondering if I should try to do a crossword, but I think I’ll save that for the main site. No comics either, but I think I’m the […]
Settlers Wanted
I’m looking for a few intrepid souls who are willing to try out blogging on a Wordpress platform at my new site.
I think you’ll find that you can do so much more with Wordpress that you’ll wonder why you ever used blogger in the first place.
As you can see here, you can easily upload your […]
Neglect and the Next Big Thing
I know that I have been shamefully neglecting this site. That’s because I’m a bad, bad man.
Anyway, I recently came across Surface, which Microsoft is touting as the Next Big Thing.Â
I’m not convinced. I see applications in banking, sure, and maybe a few other areas where they already use touch screens (would you like fries […]
I Can Resist Anything But Temptation
You just don’t see headlines like this every day.
Sorry, I Can’t Resist
The senator, while denying his intoxication, could not explain his nudity.
Stuff
I finally broke down and got some reading glasses today. To be accurate, my wife bought them for me. I guess she just got tired of my bitching about not being able to read stuff. It’s amazing what that woman can find for $2.
New survey up. Just one question, so it shouldn’t tax your patience […]
A Burning Ring of Fire?
Hell. Go to Hell. Hell on Earth. A hellish experience.
Is there a Hell?
For an atheist like me, the answer is a straightforward no.
But, I have to ask, can any decent person believe in Hell?
I don’t think so. I cannot say that anyone who would worship a deity that would consign the majority of their fellow […]
