Here's tonight's sermon

It was preached about 5 years ago, but's its still worthwhile.  Here's Pastor Deacon Fred from Landover Baptist Church preaching to a bunch of atheists:

Yes, Landover Baptist is a parody/satire website, but they've done it right on, and this is worth the laugh.  Now, if he were only in the Chosen Attire (Full Pirate Regalia) and he were preaching about The Noodly Master.

Can you tell?

As you can see from the depressing shade of grey in the sky, I have today off. And my boss hasn't called me in.

If you've ever wondered about.....

Star Trek vs. Star Wars Vs. Babylon 5 vs. Farscape etc.  This won't solve your problems, but it does show all the ships to scale with each other.

But did they have car insurance?

OK, I am currently watching Walking With Cavemen on the Science Channel, and I have to think, would Australopithecus Afarensis use Geico?  And why is the gecko in those damn Geico ads looking a lot like the mascot in SuSE?

Avast, ye scurvy land-lubbers

It be International Talk Like A Pirate Day, one of the holiest days in the pastafarian faith (Ramen).  Splice your main brace, shiver yer timbers, & buckle yer swash.  It's time to go out on the 7 seas and plunder.  But first, get yer pirate name here.  This year, I'd be Iron Roger Rackham.

If you thought American sports fines were stiff

The check out what FIA did to McClaren.  They lost all their manufacturers' points and they were fined $100 million.  When I last had the chance to track Formula One, the average fine was about $10,000.  Before today, the stiffest fines I had seen issued were from the NBA (word to the wise: don't piss David Stern off, even though he is a roody-poo, candy-ass pile of monkey crap).

Happy Anniversary

Voyager is now 30 years old.  I was only a child when they encountered Jupiter and Saturn, and didn't really pay attention to it.  Until I saw the National Geographic articles.  I've been fascinated with space exploration ever since then.

So I get a day off today

And Western Washington gets record-breaking rainfall.  It's all a conspiracy between my boss and The Weather Channel, I tell you....
