Economic Left/Right: 2.75 (Right of Center)
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.79 ("Libertarian" of center)
Take the Test
Some of the questions were a little weird, the last one specifically: "It's fine for society to be open about sex, but these days it's going too far." I can strongly disagree about the first clause and strongly ...

I haven't gotten any new albums for quite a while, but this last week I got two.
Matthew Talamini gave me the Thrice album: Vheissu, and I won Bob Dylan's new album: Modern Times from the Coudal Partners contest (thanks google). They didn't tell me which question I won it on ...

So, I lost my iPod... it will either turn up, or it was stolen, or it will be stolen, where ever it is lost at, or something else that I haven't though of yet.
Until then, I consider my new iPod nano a business expense, since I use it (or will, ...

I saw this online somewhere:
a religion that doesn't preach tolerance for all is evil and immoral themselves...
Is it just me or does that sound kind of intolerant towards evil and immorality?
If you don't agree with me there, you have to agree that this statement is intolerant towards that "religion that ...

For the first time in a while I'm looking forward to some movies coming out...
Fearless starring Jet Li
Casino Royale starring Daniel Craig (looks like a different feel for a Bond movie? Maybe just wishful thinking, couldn't be worse than Pierce though...)
The Departed starring Jack Nicholson, Mark Whalberg, Matt Damon, and ...

First Post
I was thinking today, and what I really meant when I was whining about my brother giving me a hard time about my question is that Google is only as good as the sites it returns, and just because a site is at the top of the list doesn't ...

...an open letter to the world. (Inspired by this post)
What follows are the unedited ravings of a pro-life lunatic.
• The best we can expect from a non-theocratic government (i.e. everything but the kingdom of God) is justice. (And we should expect that.)
• Reconciliation only occurs between the living.
• "Social Justice" ...

The site that prompted this post was the Texas Rangers home site. Before they started advertising crappy ESPN content on their page, it was my favorite homepage for a sports team that I follow.
Ok.. there are things more annoying, ...

I liked the first one... the second one is scattered and boring. Maybe it will be better once the second half shows up, but I cannot comprehend why such a shoddy movie is breaking so many records.

Very cool speech. Makes me want to read Prey.
He shows that we don't know anything about the environment, and that people who want to fix things and are more concerned with causing us to act than with knowing what action is best.

I really hate shaving. I usually shave once a week, and hate every second of that torture. One day (or, I should say: "Three days") I tried shaving every day. That lasted about three days.
So, I read some article that claimed to tell me how to shave. It had all ...

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby, I compare you ...

Well, when youre sitting there
In your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folks that you know
Well I hope you wont see me
In my ragged company
You know I could never be alone
Take me down little susie, take me down
I know you think youre the queen of the underground
And you can send ...

I am not a fan, not a fan at all.
This is a technique in digital (I'm assuming, maybe you can do it film-wise) photography where you take a picture at 3 or 4 different exposures (i.e. changing the size the aperture opens while the picture is taken) and combine them ...

Recently, in my job, I have been given the opportunity to spend quite a bit of time at a really nice health club. 2 days a week I get to workout (cardio machines/weight machines/etc.) and 2 days I get to swim (pool, sauna, steamroom, whirlpool).
My brother is "teh expert" on ...

...from Chef Boyardee:
Apparently "add your own Mozzarella" is required to get anything resembling the picture on the front
To understand the directions, or to connect the instructions to the visible outcome, the chef must lay aside quaint "literal" definitions of words such as "contain," "cover," "twelve inches," and "cheese."

I've been catching up on John Siracusa's Blog Fatbits, which is a great blog for nerdy macheads like myself. I really enjoyed this little tidbit:
Any viable solution must work within the (often inconvenient) bounds of reality.
That's something just about everyone can be reminded about all all the time.
