Steve Jobs and the flying helmet, and why we don’t pray

I had the strangest dream this morn­ing. I was walk­ing down a wide stone side­walk (about 20 feet wide), like that in a park, lined with trees, that led up to a large build­ing.  When the wind blew, I rode it up into the air, as high as 20 feet, and for dis­tances of up to about 40 feet.  I’d put out my arms and turn, almost like a dancer, enjoy­ing the lift, and land­ing at the same gen­tle pace that I took off at. A woman behind me mar­veled, and I told her it was easy, she just had to relax and spread her arms out.

Book Meme

OK, I am learn­ing to hate these, but of course, I love them.  “Memes” are a techy geeky word coined by arch-Darwinist and athe­ist Richard Dawkins, who cre­ated the word to rep­re­sent “repli­ca­tor of cul­tural infor­ma­tion that one mind trans­mits (ver­bally or by demon­stra­tion) to another mind.”  In com­mon eng­lish, now we use them to talk about our­selves.  So here’s the book meme.

Personal DNA

Blog Rodent did his pes­onal DNA test, and I took it too.  I dis­agree with the con­clu­sion that I like to social­ize rather than stay home, but what is also inter­est­ing are my high mas­cu­line and low fem­i­nine rat­ings.  Now I can relax that I’m not gay ;).  Here’s my results.

McKinney is enjoying the attention

Like Cindy Shee­han before her, Cyn­thia “Slappy the Squir­rel” McK­in­ney is enjoy­ing the spot­light so much that she refuses to leave.

She con­tin­ues to take up time for her­self which the Democ­rats could be using to push their lat­est plan or attack Bush. McK­in­ney would rather make all the rounds appear­ing on any show that will take her so she can non-apologize again, while blam­ing Bush for 9/11.

Just like with Shee­han (in the last few months) few Democ­rats want to sup­port McK­in­ney, but none will really take her to task or tell her to stop. They are par­a­lyzed by their own PC mess.

But the real rea­son I posted this was because I wanted a chance to post a pic­ture of Slappy the Squir­rel and remem­ber the good ol’ days of Ani­ma­ni­acs. I loved that show.

Where are You Politically?

Poly1 Pre­vi­ously, I took a bunch of polit­i­cal quizzes, and pre­sented the results, which seemed to indi­cate that I was a bit cen­trist.  I retook one of them, and it looks pretty much the same (see image below).  What is really inter­est­ing about the OKCu­pid polit­i­cal test is the nice set of back­grounds you can put your results against.  Check these out, and go take your own test!
