This afternoon, I’m going to meet Bucky Covington of American Idol fame. Not that it’s going to be the highlight of my life, but it’s still pretty cool. I have to say, working where I do has some undeniable benefits. I’ll be sure to post a photo when I get back.

I’ve used Movable Type as my blogging software for several years now, but I’ve never taken advantage of Trackbacks before. A few years ago, Trackbacks were being heavily abused by spammers, much like commenting systems have been (in fact, the abuse of Trackbacks was probably partly due to increased protection against comment spam). I’ve always…

It’s about time! This is a huge step in the right direction for non-theists. I completely agree with Herb Silverman, president of the Secular Coalition for America, who says that, “the only way to counter the prejudice against non-theists is for more people to publicly identify as non-theists. Rep. Stark shows remarkable courage in being…

I just watched today’s episode of The Show, which was made by stringing together short videos made by sports racers from around the world (including me!). It was a nice sentiment, but it made me kind of sad. The Show has been a lot of fun and Ze’s quirks and humorous points of view have…

The five year old grandson of a woman whose blog I read recently fell out of a fifteen foot high window, landed on a woodpile, and walked away without a scratch. On her blog, she wrote, “Praise The LORD”. Her evidence that God exists: Her five year old grandson fell out of a fifteen foot…

The U.S. Mint has struck 50,000+ George Washington dollar coins without adding “In God We Trust” to them. Now the coins are worth fifty to sixty times their face value. Does anyone else find it humorous that the value of the money went up when the presence of God was removed?

The previous version of ALLO (v4) was designed to display only the most recent post, regardless of how many posts had been written that day. It was a decision I made for aesthetic reasons, but because of it, I had the tendency to put off posts if I had already posted once that day. The…

Today at work, I went upstairs to fill up my water bottle. On the way to the water… Thing (I don’t know what to call it), I passed by the mail slots. I glanced at my slot, expecting to see nothing (as per usual), and was quite surprised to see a small manila envelope with…

My shaver broke today. Well, it may have broken on a different day, but I didn’t know about it until I tried to shave for work this morning. I use an electric shaver and have ever since I started shaving. I’ve never used a razor before, and frankly, the thought of rubbing a blade around…

FOX’s new show, Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader, premiered on Tuesday night with mind-boggling ratings. Last night, it kicked butt again, and fingers are crossed for yet another ratings bonanza tonight. I predict that the show won’t last, however. At least, not unless some changes are made very soon. The basic problem is…
