I’m sick of so-called pro-family NFPO’s
Wednesday, February 28th, 2007
Today, I received my last official e-mail SPAM from AFA (America Family Association). I’m officially removing myself form their forsaken, over hyped, hyper-reactive, illogical, insecure, anti-societal stronghold. This last e-mail was the straw that broke the camel’s back, hammered the nail on the coffin, whatever idiom you wish to apply on this. My response to them can be read below:
My goodness! It’s a documentary. Documentaries are made to be informational, theory or factual based perceptions of societal hot-topics. This is a scientific discovery that in no way slams my belief in Christ. I can choose to believe in it (or watch it for that fact) or not. Please try to focus on things that really matter. The greatest threat to Christianity is disbelief, not information. Christ and god are real, thus no amount of information, science, etc can curtail that belief in Christ. The fact you are trying so hard to combat this belittles the concept of "faith" and belief in god based on faith. Perhaps a better approach, rather than attempting an information coup, would be to offer your rebuttal through well produced Christian focused documentaries and such. Just because someone takes the initiative to produce a documentary about hard evidence and vague theory, doesn’t make them the anti-christ.
Incidentally, my e-mail bounced back due to a "Account has reached the allocation limit"
PS: I have decided to allow comments on this one, as I know many of you will have something to say to this.

Kyle Bone Anti-Shirt

Thanks to Kyle Bone’s (bone-ay) anti-shirt, I was able to finish the night laughing my head off, and so should you.

“Wax on…wax off” has just taken an entirely new meaning

Sent from a work associate as a counter to one of those “80’s” flashback links.
I can’t believe they were able to pull all the old cast members together for this. Amazing!

For Sale By Owner
Sunday, February 11th, 2007
Following over a year of construction, 3 loan extensions, stressful nights, deep conversations, and a lot of hard work by Skowronek Builders, the McMillan Farms house is finally to the point we can get rid of it (hallelujah!) Even though the original plan might have been to actually move into the behemoth, the construction costs, added interest due to delays, and housing prices have put this puppy officially out of our league. So we’ve officially decided to sell our dream home. Though we won’t be able to enjoy it, I’m sure some lucky family out there will.

Sad Realization : Vista User Account Control
Saturday, February 10th, 2007
So much to say about Windows Vista’s User Account Control (which I’ve disabled on all my Vista boxes) has to be the most bloated, irreverent, obtrusive security methodology I have ever seen in an Operating System. However much I loath Apple and it’s hypocritical marketing tactics, I have to admit, they hit it right on the head with this one.

Pachelbel Rant

It’s late and I’m tired. Somehow I managed across this rant by Rob Paravonian. I think many of you can relate to the humor behind his rant on Pachelbel Canon.
