Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. Here you will find different musings and descriptions of the various happenings in my life. Anything from political and religious opinions to fantastical writings that have absolutely nothing to do with anything important. Some days I may write about my educational adventures and others I may be writing about the rising price of gasoline, you just never know. So, if this is your cup of tea or if you are just looking for the entertainment of reading other people's thoughts, I welcome you and invite you to subscribe to my blog (look for the link in the sidebar). Thank you for your visit and please feel free to invite your friends!

seasonal people

Ok, I know that there are many among you who are what I would term as “seasonal people.” By this I mean that you are attuned to and anxiously await certain seasons whether it is because of the warmth of summer, the cold of winter, hunting season, fishing season, the flowers of spring or the colors of autumn. It is because of this that I am posting the following online counter which shows to you the different seasons and exactly how much of the current season has occurred percentage-wise. Here’s the linky:

Hope you like this countdown! I’m looking forward to Fall already!!

“I’m PC and I’m Mac” expanded

My wife loves these commercials and I’m glad to see that they have finally included Linux into a version of these commercials even if it is a “knockoff” of them. Here’s the linky:

PC, Mac…. meet Linux

I especially like the third one.

Rosie has finally lost it….

Did you check this out on The View?? I can barely listen to the drivel coming out of this lady’s mouth lately. Here’s the clip:

Rosie’s “The View” interview

Now anyone who knows me knows that I don’t agree with Prez Bush’s policies when it pertains to the middle east and Iraq. I am not against the troops though and to misrepresent them as terrorists is tantamount to treason. When this whole war started I stated to some very close friends that it would turn into another Vietnam Conflict and time is definitely proving my point. Not only are we now struggling to keep the peace in the Iraqi state but we are backing a government that is not being supported by a large portion of the Iraqi public, not being effective in social re-structuring, not pursuing effective measures to ensure the safety of both it’s private and public figures, not having an effective and definitive plan for our troop withdrawal in a timely manner. The current establishment now realizes that what we have allowed is a political vacuum in Iraq that will, eventually, turn into a full blown civil war once we leave the area. There is virtually no way around this simple fact. Of course this is strictly my own opinion and it really does not amount to much of anything at all. Feel free to comment if you will.

What can I say about this???

It’s funny! That’s all that I can say to describe it.

Looking for a music video to put on your blog?

You may wish to try this site, there’s lots of artists listed here and they all seem to be from YouTube or Last.FM Here’s an example featuring Metallica…..

I’m not certain as to exactly why I’m so attracted to Metallica’s style of music but I’ve always enjoyed it. The pounding of the drums and the screech of the guitars are literally music to mine ears so to speak. Hard, driving music always seems to charge up my system if you know what I mean. Maybe it’s my past catching up with me again and trying to take over (no worries there m8s, I’m comfortably in the grasp of the Lord). Of course, heavy metal is only one genre of music that I enjoy (just ask my wife). There are others that I like just as much, take for example the following clip of Eric Clapton’s Knocking on Heavens Door:

But I digress, I was merely going to point you to a site where you, the reader, could find links to many different artists and some of their videos. I truly hope that you enjoy these and here’s the linky:
