We’ve all seen it. The beautiful fantasy landscape of some distant planet sporting several large moons. But…is it feasible in reality?
Recently I was watching yet another Discovery channel show about what the Earth would be like without the moon. The answer was scary and pretty desolate. The reason is because of the tides and how [...]
What effect would 2 moons have on a planet?
Fort Hood Shooter did a disservice to Muslims
No one is sure exactly why Nidal Malik Hasan opened fire at Fort Hood and killed 12 people. He is in stable condition and I assume at some point he will talk. I hope sincerely that this was NOT religion motivated. Though because he is Muslim and is shown in surveillance video wearing Muslim garb, [...]
Are Angels Really Aliens?
So I watched this show on History Channel talking about how there are worldwide accounts that could potentially be alien interactions. For instance, golden “airplanes” found in Mayan tombs, the Nazca Lines, stories in the Bible describing “angels” who with the nimbus around their heads could have been aliens in space suits. Cave paintings of [...]
How Did the Craters on the Moon Get on the Near Side?
The same side of the Moon always faces Earth. There are meteor scars ALL over the surface. So if the Moon is relatively close to the Earth and the same side has always faced us, how did all those meteorites hit the Earth-facing side? The Earth would’ve been in the path of collision. Did the [...]
Was Hitler a Population Control Caused by Group Conciousness?
Tom and I were talking the other day about evolution and how wars were effective means of controlling the population in Europe (and for that matter Stalin in Russia ). So here is my thought: What if the group consciousness gave rise to Hitler and other dictators who then led the population into massive wars?
There [...]
What if the Red Sea Really *DID* part?
We watch a LOT of science shows. Discover, History Channel, Nova Science Now, The Universe…..my 5 year old already knows most of her planets. A while back I watched a show on Discover about how Noah’s flood really happened. Now, I saw a previous show that postulated the Noah’s Ark story was a ripoff of [...]
Waiting for retail therapy – at Circuit City
So I get up this morning with good intentions. I’m going to work like a fiend and get tons of stuff accomplished. It was like a sign from God….even Lydia was yanking on my hand telling me to go work (because she wanted to watch cartoons and when I’m not working I’m usually [...]
Blowing sunshine
I’m a web developer by trade. Some days, it’s uber cool….playing with all the techie toys, the less computer-literate bowing down in homage and awe at my incredible electronic prowess. But some days…it just sucks. There are lots of reasons why. Working too hard on projects that take too long and don’t pay enough. Trying [...]
May your days be filled with catnip and joy
Havoc: a funny name for a tiny tabby cat who was skittish, but loving. Who would come when you called her, but didn’t like to be held long (she preferred a choice seat on your shoulder, the better to look around). When she was a kitten, she would run the Indy 500 around [...]
8 Reasons Why Marijuana Should Be Legalized
<Disclaimer: I do not smoke marijuana. Nor would I even if it was legal. >
Today I came across a video on YouTube about LEAP, which is an organization of law enforcement officials who want to legalize certain drugs. Now, the commentary was provided by Fox News, which in general makes me twitch – Fox News [...]
