If cynicism is a disease, have you caught it, or has it caught you?

Quote of the Day:

I grew up with the religion of ‘Star Wars,’ frankly. That’s when I realized there is something bigger out there … and it’s called the Force.

People have a lot of different beliefs, and at the end of the day, we all have deeply held beliefs that probably don’t make sense to anyone else.

  1. King Arthur and Camelot
    Saw the first 2 episodes of the new King Arthur / Camelot show on Channel Four (U.K) the other night: once you get past the naked bums and boobs of both sexes in every 4th scene, it has some good settings, especially the Castle Camelot.

    Some of the dialogue is quite poor but on whole, an enjoyable two hours on a wet Sunday evening. I therefore await with interest to see if it degenerates into a remake of Monty Python’s Holy Grail!

  2. Roman dodecahedron
    Maybe it was used to play a game? toss it in the air, see which of its sides is facing upward.

    Maybe Romans were the first D&D geeks in the world 😉

    1. i think
      it was used to confuse Pythagoras’ students if any started misbehaving in his Mystery schools 😉

      that’s what my philosophy professor would have done…

    Re: The new politics of climate change

    There is so much contradiction and so many possibilities that it is difficult NOT to suspect that some portion of climate change to be purely political.

    Beyond that, many chemtrail theorists are now claiming that if it weren’t for an effort to purposely create an artificial climate change, we’d be realizing the first stages of a mini ice age.

    Sounds crazy, I know but there is evidence that is far more inconvenient than carbon emissions…

    “Researchers from the National Solar Observatory (NSO) and the Air Force Research Laboratory have collected a number of observations of the solar interior, visible surface and corona (the sun’s atmosphere), and all the data points to an incredibly lazy sun in the near future.”

    This kind of data (you should read the whole article) lends itself to those conspiracy theorists who are now saying that, not only is global warming so much political cow-pie, it is being created by those long-reported aircraft contrails (or chemtrails).

    Fascinating subject but, who and what can you believe?
