Super Recursive Epistemological Exemplum »

The little man opened the door and stepped into Schmidt’s office.
“Who let you in here?” asked the surprised Schmidt.
“I just did,” the little man said, pointing to the door.
“But that’s my bathroom,” Schmidt said, rising from his chair.
“No matter,” said the little man. “In a moment, you won’t care. Because I am about to give [...]

Atheism! »

I personally think that Atheism is sort of a silly concept as the core of the belief is that there is no power of any kind behind any of what is going on – thus the universe has just gone on forever – nothing made it – it has just always been here. This, to [...]

A Letter From Lincoln »

Yesterday I did a piece on how poor of a communicator I am. ScanJack made a comment that I find to be deadly accurate:
“I like the letter writing idea. I would suggest as a good primer, people read the letters sent home by Civil War and WW1 soldiers. Can anyone being passed out of high [...]

My Inability to Communicate »

It has become obvious to me that my ability to communicate degrades with each passing moment. I used to think that I communicated well – people seemed to understand what I was trying to say – regardless of the chosen delivery mechanism. As the world has evolved vastly in the amount of communication platforms being [...]

Why Even Vote? »

Regardless of where your political beliefs alight you upon the fairy princess-endorsed spectrum of political party affiliations, please read the letter that I recently sent to the (dis)h-o-n-o-r-a-b-l-e Missouri House of Representatives. In summation, you may feel this topic is of a “lesser importance” but hold on one cotton-pickin’ second… the Republic only works when [...]

The Wikileaks Post I want to Read. »

I am actually excited by this announcement. Why?
“Releasing the bank details of 2,000 “high net worth individuals” and companies could reveal huge potential tax evasion, The Observer reported on Sunday.” This makes me giddy especially when I read about how Google has been hiding billions of dollars using the Denmark scheme.
and
“Both American and British firms and [...]

“WWJD?” (What Would Jenny Do?) »

“I do believe sadly it’s going to take some diseases coming back to realize that we need to change and develop vaccines that are safe. If the vaccine companies are not listening to us, it’s their f___ing fault that the diseases are coming back. They’re making a product that’s s___. If you give us a [...]

Business Advice »

In my travels throughout the business world I have encountered many people far more successful than me. In those travels some of those people have been nice enough to pass on some of their knowledge that they have gained through various means. I am still not what I consider to be a successful person, however [...]

2011 – Things to Expect? »

In recent times – like over the last few weeks – some various bits of news have been reported on from a multitude of disparate sources.

The Price of food is expected to rise significantly this year. Link.
The Price of Oil is expected to rise significantly this year. Link.
Import Prices are going up, that means that [...]

Die-offs… The End is Nigh »

A floating skein of BB authors were recently sighted citing the recent spate of animal die-offs. So here is my damn post.
Here’s a list of the current primary recorded cases . Yea! There is now a Google Map. Here is a more responsible account of recent deaths (from National Geographic).
It is my understanding [...]

Violence is not the Answer »

A relatively reoccurring theme in the good old U S of A these days is how much Joe Citizen is not so happy with the Politicians that are running this here shindig. It is the right of every American to think that way as the founding fathers of this great country not only believed in [...]

If you can’t spell “Dialectical” we’re taking your kids away »

The cognitive behavioral process of thinking everyone is just like you is a fundamental, yet erroneous attribute required of humans to exist around other humans. We have evolved to leverage our neocortex-enabled social abilities as a strategy for successfully surviving within the Homo sapien-dominated world. This is even with “social assembly code” that is extremely [...]

Something Creepy is Afoot in Arkansas »

A few days ago some birds, lots and lots of them, 4000 is the guess, just fell out of the sky dead in Arkansas. At least it wasn’t poison.
Today some 100,000 fish showed up dead in a river in Arkansas.
Now I am not one to draw a pattern normally but two major events of wildlife [...]

“Nuke em – From Orbit” – Aliens »

Happy New Year! Apparently North Korea has decided to ring in the new year with the threat of nuclear war. Am I the only one that is tired of Kim Jong Stupid and his inbred brood of crazy? China has to have finally figured it out haven’t they? Their weird cousins to the east are [...]
