Religulous! God's be darned, gosh...

In about 30 minutes, I'm going to plop my butt down in a soda-stained (and, pardon the snark, God-knows what else) movie theater seat to watch Religulous, Bill Maher's lampooning documentary of our silly world's major religions. I'm especially looking forward to anything to do with Scientology of course, because that religion is HI-Larry-US!! Thetens begone! (sorry Tom Cruise!) LOL! I'm just hoping some Bible-thumper from Focus on the Family (affectionately known as Poke-Us-In-The-Fanny among irreligious friends here in the Mecca of Christian Fundamentalism, Colorado Springs) is there to tell me I'm going to "H" "E" double hockey-sticks (Hi Sarah!) for contributing to this atheist/comedian/Jew's bank account! Of course if the Fundie is a hot young thing, I might decide to make it my mission to deprogram her instead of seeing Bill's movie. But hey, since I've already bought the ticket, I'm sure Bill being his sexist self would forgive me. LOL! Oh my, the layers of irony are nearly infinite, I tell you!! Peace be upon you my friends... going to get some of God's food -- popcorn, and wash it down with equally Holy High Fructose Corn Syrup! Yay!

The Continuing Rise of the Machines

Funny things, PCs. My $400 laptop runs circles around my $2300 Sony Vaio (2.8 GHz P4, 1GB RAM) because it is 5 years "younger." Amazing shit. I bought a little USB HDTV ATSC receiver and enjoy beautiful over-the-air HD broadcasts on my laptop... for shits and grins, I plugged it in to my Sony, and it was as if I'd asked it to solve Pi to 3 million decimal places! LOL! It did a decent, albeit, hitchy job of displaying standard definition channels, but HD? Nope. Ah, Moore's law continues, no longer is it clock cycles, but it will be again, and then it will be architecture change again (multiple cores for now), ad infinitum ... until we accidentally build SkyNet. I'm guessing in 10 years, a run-of-the-mill PC will have the computational power of some of the "supercomputers" of today. I know, not a stretch. I'm just trying to get my head around the software that will be inevitably written to bog down that much CPU/Memory horsepower, because those damn d...

Pleading for the future...

"I am pleading for the future; I am pleading for a time when hatred and cruelty will not control the hearts of men." - Clarence Darrow. Keith Olbermann again cuts through the bullshit and talks about what many of us fear... and how to prevent it. If only we'd listen to reason. I know, what a concept. Yes, of course he's a partisan!! How the hell could you not be in this starkly obvious election? This election is hopefully not a premature referendum on the maturity of the proverbial hearts of men.

Happy Days! Opie, Richie, Fonzie, and Andy for Obama

See more Ron Howard videos at Funny or Die This video is simple sweet nostalgia for me! I grew up watching the Andy Griffith Show , an innocent and sweet black and white (double meaning I was of course unaware of at the time) show about simple times, and apparently devoid of the undercurrent of racism and the raging debate of Vietnam occurring in our country at the time ... or so it seemed. The morality plays within most of the episodes often, at least, subtly touched on the issues of the day and all the while simultaneously and deftly, taught tolerance, and held up to, albeit good natured, ridicule the intolerance and destructive division occurring in our country at the time. In a way that only sweet southern gentility could have pulled off. Floyd the Barber would approve this message. For me personally, The Andy Griffith Show was a serendipitous coincidence and weird connection to Hollywood because it's make-believe town of Mayberry , North Carolina was modeled after my father...
