Let's Read That Again...

I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, um, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq and everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uh, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future.

What Planet?

Many stressful days here at the Knowledge Planet have led to little time for blogifying reflections on the day. Instead, I am left with this hilarious and enjoyable little bit thanks to my dear friend, Jason Paul Yakelis. Enjoy!

Stuck in an Airport and You Can't Get Out of It

It's 8:42PM. I'm stuck in Logan Airport here in Boston, my flight to Philadelphia is 2hrs late and I'm going to miss my connecting flight to Harrisburg... the cost of living in a city near many places but precisely nowhere (in realitive terms for my friends in the non-East Coast U.S.)

Since I am in a holding pattern, I have decided to share good pictures that should be shared, brought to you with some (hopefully) clever captions


The way I will remember that day...


Now THAT is what I call atmosphere!

One picture I will always remember... Man do I love those two or what! I'm gettin' choked up now... excuse me...


Watch for older businessmen running off with young girls

And despite airport delays...

The dude abides

I just got the word. The delay has been pushed further. I may get out of here sometime after 11PM. Here's hoping you're safely where you want to be.

Another edition of "Cool Things on the Web"

Today, I found some particularly cool stuff you gotta see...

Check out http://www.dontclick.it, a study in our propensity to click on things, even when told repeatedly not to

Also, http://www.stumbleupon.com - they make a plugin for Firefox that gives you essentially a smarter "I'm Feeling Lucky" button

Finally, check out my new super-cool Facebook profile. As my sister says, Facebook is the IT place

Life is too short not to travel

Married life is good and interesting things are on the horizon at work. My golf game is bad, but my home is comfortable and wonderful. I have much to be thankful for, though I wish I could get my spiritual life worked out. Work dominates my off cycles as its the primary thing going on right now. Thus, I post the following pictures to remind myself and my loyal readers that the world God has made is very beautiful and life more than the labor one finds to do.

Enjoy.

Music is good for your soul

My brother John turned me on to this guy... a great example of good acoustic guitar and the power of the Internet to empower both the I and the We.
