An update on the inquiry into viable atheism here on theo.wrymouth.com

        

It is almost poetry:

I had got a dream to make my organization, nevertheless I did not earn enough amount of cash to do that. Thank heaven my dude proposed to take the loans. Therefore I used the college loan and realized my dream.

That is all.

        

Priests Should be Required to be Fathers — a new post on Wryligion muses on my son, his head injury in a baseball game, my feelings of grief and fear for him, the nature of God's sacrifice, and the assertion that priests should be required to be fathers.

I should start this out, in deference to Debbie by telling a bit about her, as I knew her. I met Debbie when she was dating my brother and I liked her right off. She had a wicked sense of humor, silly and profane, piercing and insightful. She could give as good as she got and took crap from no one. She loved her family and she loved kids and she took people to her heart. She was a generous spirit. Down to earth and idealistic. Flawed and deeply, richly, human.

Funny how "a few minutes" is now defined as "90 or more" in the computer age.

        

6-spotted. Spring is here.

Well, World Maths Day has been such a success that my students had trouble getting on the clogged servers this AM. Sad, really. Then one of my students noticed that he could edit the .html code on the login page and save it as a new .html page. Load the new page and "ta da!" — we get in. Of course he gets a prize! :)

        

World Maths Day is underway, and addictive as ever! The 2010 version has been revamped, with the rules now providing a more "level" playing field (500 games per contestant for individual prizes; as many games as you want to contribute to the record). The actual day is easily the longest on record, as each year the World Maths Day planners make World Maths Day 48 hours long!

Someone hit my website searching for "World Maths Day Cheats." What kind of person feels the need to cheat on a free, fun contest?

Egad.

        

Compare this 1-square-foot patch of desert dirt, after the rainy season, to all of Mars. Pictures from Mars have impressed me with their total lifelessness. It may turn out that life is rare in the Universe, not because of any "wasted space" but more because that much Universe is needed just to make one planet with life on it.

        

It's not much, barely anything. But I'll take what I can get:




SEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeee-More!
