Stephen Colbert Is Right About Bears

Anyone who watches The Colbert Report with any frequency knows of the man’s hatred of the Ursine’s.  They regularly top The Threat Down as the #1 threat.  It seems his thinking isn’t all that far off if…you are are a child, and you make fun of bald people. Image via Wikipedia The Christian god apparently [...]

Why Are People Religious?

Here is part two of my series about atheism.  If you remember from my introductory post I am exploring my ideas of atheism and how best to state my position.  I figure one good place to start is to figure out why people are religious.  Here is my take. Basically I see two reasons people [...]

Keeping It Real Vintage

I found this vintage Dungeons and Dragons commercial from the 80′s.  I was way into D&D back then and it seems odd that I don’t remember this commercial at all. I find it interesting that they make it out to be such a family game.  I can’t imagine ever playing D&D with anyone in my [...]

What Am I Watching: Brazil

Eido Test

So I wrote a EidoGo SGF Viewer plugin for WordPress. It’s not quite ready to go yet but I will release it once I get it done. Below is the highly famous “Blood-Vomiting Game”. Updates to come.

Site maintenance items…

Working on cleaning the blog up a bit. Nothing too major. Moved the “Software” category to being under “Computers”. Added a “Scripting” category under “Software”. Also cleaning up some bad links, properly categorizing some old posts, etc. Not much to see here, move along.

The Economy Sucks…

…but I think I know where to look for help in fixing it. I received this in email from a friend a while back. An old Indian chief sat in his hut on the reservation, smoking a ceremonial pipe and eyeing two U.S. government officials sent to interview him. “Chief Two Eagles,” asked one official, [...]
