Bush Gets the Boot

What's Your Favorite Planet? Mine's the Sun!

Cuz Pluto's been disqualified.

The History Channel had an interesting show about the sun tonight. The Sun-quake looked particularly nasty: two mile high waves traveling at 250,000 miles an hour! Cool stuff...I bet there's people out there who would try to surf it.

There was also a show about the mythology of Star Wars that was quite interesting. Check 'em out if you get a chance!

Tacos Rule!

Dubya is right...tacos do rule.

I actually bought some new clothes today. You have to understand, this is quite an accomplishment for me-I never buy new clothes. But, I'm going on vacation so I thought I'd splurge. Also, I aquired a new Jim Harrison print yesterday, so...also cool.

inFamous

Dictionary.com defines "famous" as "having a widespread reputation, usually of a favorable nature; renowned; celebrated."

KFC, however, seems to have a slightly different definition: they proudly proclaim the merit of their "famous" bowls. I have not tried one of these, but it basically consists of mashed potatoes, corn, chicken, cheese, and gravy (or as my brother Josh says, everything that they were able to salvage from the trash). My problem with this whole thing is that they have the nerve to call them their "famous" bowls. Is KFC famous for their bowls? How often have you heard anyone say that they're going to KFC to pick up a bowl? When you thing of Kentucky Fried Chicken, what comes to mind? Call me crazy, but I think of...fried chicken.

You cannot arbitrarily decide that something is famous. Something is famous when it is well known. KFC is NOT known for their bowls! Hence, they do not have famous bowls! Oh, well...thanks for tuning in once again to the most famous (or is it infamous?) blog on the internets.

What's a Robit?

Nothing like starting off with a shameless plug. Hans and I were talking about blogging and he mentioned that he posted not too terribly long ago. So go check out "What's a Robit?"

Anyway, it's been several months/years/eons since I've put anything on here and even longer since I put anything worth reading. So, since I don't write anything worth reading, I thought that I'd recommend something of value:

Wow, this guy's an even bigger geek than I am. That's quite an accomplishment! Be sure to check out his book, Brainiac, while you're at it. Good reading!
