Why Now?

I've heard people often ask, "why now?" when things aren't going so great.
I say, why not now? If not now, then when? It's gonna happen anyway, right?

Less Than Two Month Until World Cup 2010

I just finished watching a soccer match in the Spanish league and during the half-time saw an ad for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

It's like a month long vacation for me. This year it will be from June 11 through July 12. Also, this will be the first time Africa is the host continent. South Africa probably
won't win the whole thing, but I don't think that is the point. The fact that
South Africa is hosting I think is prize enough for them and all Africans.

Although, it wouldn't hurt to make it to the Round of 16.

Being Afraid of God

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Whether you believe in Him or not.

Ooh La La iPad

Ok, so my cousin just got the iPad and I thought to take it for a spin.
Well it does live up to the hype. It's very slick to view and intelligent as well.
It's smart enough to anticipate and transition for text to symbols to text
when typing it's for example.

The typing takes a bit to get used to but you have to approach it
"drunken style". Just imagine typing with the first three or four fingers on each hand.

Until the next time. Oh, did I mention spell check on the fly?

Another Civil War?

Over the last couple of weeks I've listened to news reports, podcasts, etc. about how the passage of the health care bill has pushed political discourse to the edge of chaos.

The Left blames the Right. The Right blames the Left, and the Middle blames the media. There is a real danger of the fringe, with the proper combination of accelerants (rhetoric, hyperbole, and vitriol), becoming the mob.

The last civil war caused much of the social as well as economic fabric of the United States to be utterly destoyed. I pray our elected leaders consider how they might together heal the bruise before it becomes a sore.

When It's Time To Get Out Of The Way

When your boss is younger than you, you're no longer in charge.
When your president is younger than you, your generation is no longer in charge.

The Easy Solution To The Health Care Debate

For those in Congress who don't want health insurance reform now; they should give up their health insurance, now, to someone who doesn't have health insurance now.
