ChuckChat Scores Adam Savage of Mythbusters

I haven't listen for about a month and just removed him from iTunes this week, but some how Chuck Tomasi of ChuckChat - Technorama scored an interview with Adam Savage (the goofy one) on Mythbusters. (no Kari Byron unfortunately) 

 

So I added him back and am ready to listen to what hopefully will be an interesting interview and of course the several Godaddie and GotoYourRoomMeeting (I know they are wrong, but I don't want to advertise for free) ads that will be spread throughout his show. 

 

As for me breaking with the third podcast I listened to, well... lets just say I can look at digg.com and read the stories to my self without having ads for domain name and online meeting companies three days before they read them to me.  Sorry Guys, but you aren't that interesting...  But congrats on Adam Savage and I might forget to remove you from iTunes for weeks this time.

I AM HETEROSEXUAL!

After the recent annoucment by a member of the Houston Coments about her sexual orientation, I figured I needed to make a proclamation too. 

 

It seems that in our world if we cannot declare in the mass media our personal preference including sexual orientation we cannot be happy. So to fulfill my personal need for happiness, I am declaring today to the whole Internet that I AM HETEROSEXUAL!

 

Wow!  You know what, I don't feel any happier... Perhaps happiness isn't something gleaned by making a public proclaimation.  Of course, I was extremely happy when I proclaimed my love and commitment to my wife when we were married just over four years ago. 

 

That proclaimation though was a convenant before God and man to my wife. A convenant is something that bids and when you bid something before God... well... TV Shows get cancelled, Leagues go under, paper fades, but a Covenant before God lasts a lifetime. 

 

Proclaim what you wish, seek recognization as you choose, but nothing matters if you don't honor the convenant you have made.  In the end the mass media doesn't matter and happieness is fleeting, but my commitment (covenant) to Brandi will last a lifetime. 

 

I will try once more:  I AM COMMITTED TO MY WIFE AND WILL REJOICE IN THE LORD WITH HER ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE!

iDon't Believe it!

As I browsed through engadet today, I came across the following story iBelieve, 250 sermons in your pocket.

 

 

It appears that the iBelieve is a lanyard for the iPod Shuffle that creates a cross that can be worn to show off religious devotion (or in Barry Bond's case to make his head look smaller). 

 

The problem is (besides the fact that I don't own a Shuffle, nor would want a cross lanyard) is that you cannot seem to order it (no price on the cart) and the site quotes 2 Jobs 3:15 (a non-bible verse, but an obvious reference to Steve Jobs).  After some research (Internet Whois), I discovered that the iBelieve was the creation of a Scott Wilson of STUDIO_MOD who appears to be some kind of designer / artist. 

 

Though the iBelieve could be a cute fashion statement about your religious affiliation.  I think in the end it was a funny stunt, and not something we will see on TV at the next sports press conference or around the halls of the local mall.

 

'Anti-Bacterial Soap' - Brandi was Right!

It appears that Brandi might be right.  She has often expressed her concern over Anti-Bacterial Soap, which is almost impossible not to buy these days, when we run low on bath or hand soap. 

 

I have partially agreed with her, but am a bit pragmatic about the issue when it comes to buying soap.  If it the only kind they sell, we are going to have to buy it.

 

Well, based on this Yahoo Article:   Experts Refute Anti-Bacterial Soap Claims, it appears I will be digging and shopping a little harder to avoid the Anti-Barterial fare.

Exporting The Simpsons...

I recently discovered that 'The Simpsons' are being exported and in the process are converting to Islam...  Seem a little odd with Homer...errr... Omar's dedication to beer, bacon, and donuts?  Well, rest assured he has turned over a new leave and has dedicated himself to 'Soda' in lieu of Duff and has dropped bacon all together.  Many other changes seem to have occurred to make 'The Simpsons', Al Shamshoon. 

 

Here is a video courtesy of AOL and ABC News about 'The Simpsons' conversion experience...  The Simpsons' Exported to Arabs -- Minus Bacon, Beer

 

My only question is what happens to Krusty (Jewish), Apu (Hindu) and Ned & Rev. Lovejoy (Christian)?  As a show that is irreverent to Christianity and other religions, how can 'The Simpsons' become devote Muslims?

I found this awhile back, but I have just started to listen and wanted to share it with everyone.

Ravi deals lots with Worldview which is perfect assistance for my Biblical Worldview class.

 

Is Skype a virus?

I have been running Skype on my laptop and wife's laptop for months (it almost seems like a year). It started with a request to limit long distance charges between the US and China. Though Skype wasn't the right answer, I wanted to stay on the cutting edge of VOIP on the desktop.

Of course with the recent article, "Can Skype be a good corporate citizen?", I am rethinking having Skype running.

The question is does anyone of the millions of Skype users realize that they might be sharing network and system resources to make phone calls work for the vast Skype user group. As for me and my laptop, I will be uninstalling Skype for the time being.

iPod Video!

Less then a single month of releasing the unbelievable iPod Nano, Apple has released a iPod that supports Video. The happy news is that I didn't have enough disposable income to purchase the Nano immediately and now I can get the newer iPod with video. Instead of just carrying my music, audiobooks, podcasts, and pictures of the kids. I can also carry video of the kids and maybe a favorite show.

When will I get my hands on the iPod.... I just don't know.
