Being a really big Farscape fan I think this could be a good thing for Stargate SG-1:

While being vain and seeing how my site ranked in Google, I happened across a niffty little game called BlogShares. Seems that the object of the game is to trade shares of blogs, just like you would trade shares of companies on the Stock Exchange. Of course, being someone who loves to find things I can waste time on, I quickly signed up.

So far I have bought 1000 shares of my own blog, and a few shares from two other blogs. I am also on a quest to buy all the shares available for my friend Kevin’s blog (PolarLava). That way I can control his every thought, HA HA HA HA HA [evil tone]!

Thomas Jefferson wrote this after the passage of the Sedition Act in 1798… “A little patience and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt… If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake.”

Something to ponder in our own time as we become subject to such things as the Patriot Act.

Ok, I can understand why Christians would be greatly offended by a play portraying Jesus as gay, but just make your statements and boycott the play. Hell protest in front of the theater for all I care. But can you really prosecute for Blasphemy, even under English law?

This is the most beautiful picture I have seen returned from the Cassini probe thus far, in my humble opinion:

It appears that complaints to the FCC are on the rise with almost 240 complaints in the year 2003. Compare that with the 350 complaints lodged in 2000. That’s quite a difference. But it would appear that the increase in complaints is being caused almost completely by a minority group with a political agenda. The group is called Parents Television Council (PTC). Nice to see that the minority once again gets to set policy for the majority. When will these people learn to change the channel? Better yet, stop using the TV as a babysitter!

I’d like to know when I can expect my computer to grow into a nice big pumpkin:

Today is a very good day. I have been given a promotion at work and an opportunity to build a new development division. As of today I am officially the Director of Open Source Development.
