I was going to make a quick post on the new Batman movie, but that can wait. Watching the movie made me think of other things. Earlier post is in Bold print, newer thoughts are in the regular type. Things like if doing good makes things go bad, are you still doing good, are you […]

Yesterday, and part of today, I spent cleaning house here on my blog. I didn’t see any use to keeping the “Tag Clouds” on my page, I never used them, and they didn’t really help me find past blogs. So I threw the clouds out, and put in Categories instead. Then I noticed I wasn’t
A little bit of sports trivia. The only bit of major pro sporting news yesterday was Baseball’s All Star Game. Today outside of that last game that really counts for yesterday’s scoreboard, there is no major pro sporting event going on.

There are also a number of other coffee places that are national/international brands. Even the likes of McDonalds are starting to sell
I thought today was going to be a real downer. Work seemed endless today with barely a break for lunch. If things could go wrong, they all waited for today. But with some luck, I had a much better late afternoon/early evening. As told earlier, I went to a movie. I went with not 1

Well I just saw the movie, now I’m going to explore some the science (or lack of it) involved in this journey. In Jules Verne’s original book, the center of the earth is a large cave like area with some sort of electro magnetic field producing light. Same in the movie. Current Science views the
