50Fifty: November 2010
http://50fifty.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 30, 2010. TSA vs. The World. So everyone is getting their proverbial undergarments in an unfortunately uncomfortable position over the somewhat new ruling that every person flying into, out of, within, or over the U.S. must submit to either a backscatter (full body x-ray-like scan) or a "pat down" of the entire body (including genital region). Apparently this is completely unacceptable to most Americans. Is that really a tough question that needs a pros vs. cons list? In the end, this c...

50Fifty: March 2009
http://50fifty.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 09, 2009. No, Really, Who Does. Quick side-note (or pre-note, or whatever): Even if you don't give a damn about the Watchmen. Phenomenon, skip to the end of this post where I critique a strange Asian alcohol ad. Megan and I went and saw Watchmen. Novels written today) in 2 days and was, at that point, even more. Excited for the movie. If you haven't read Watchmen. Don't worry, all this setup is going somewhere. Opinion. Many would disagree with me). Or any of the Riddick. Yeah, I loved it.

Saturday, November 14, 2009. Go and take a ride to a shop in Grant Park. I have three options at this point. 1) Apologize profusely (to who? I don't know) about not posting enough and follow said apology with pathetic reasons why; 2) Continue on like nothing happened and there was no extreme break in continuity; or 3) Acknowledge a break in time and then do a catch-up post. And some of it nearly made me cry (as in, 'I have to stop reading this now or I will be tearing up in the middle of the office').

Friday, December 10, 2010. A Probably Unnecessary Analogy. Film where everything is white, no shadows, no horizon. Now imagine that at a certain point in life you are given a setting. Partially designated by you, and partially designated by your life decisions up to that point. Some people would end up with a cubicle, an ancient computer, and lots of motivational posters featuring kittens all dressed up like humans. You get the idea. Don't worry, this is going somewhere.I think. Let's use a generic offic...

Monday, January 10, 2011. Here We Go Again. I'm not going to get into a big rant about it, but I wanted to say a couple things about the Arizona shooting. This unfortunate situation is not a soapbox for:. Liberals to denounce crazy conservatives. Gun-control supporters to reiterate desire for stricter gun laws. Groups like the WBC to spout more hateful "it was God's will" crap. Anyone to say universal health care would have stopped this preemptively. That might be nice for a change. At the ungodly hour of.

50Fifty: August 2009
http://50fifty.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 10, 2009. I need a break from reality for a bit. Moving, changing jobs, starting a new company, preparing for a wedding, trying to save a ton of money, giving up friends, and cramming my brain full of info for licensing for a new job is finally taking a toll on me. I just want to get away from it all for a bit. Written by the doppelganger of Grant. At the ungodly hour of. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Chrissy's World O' Polaroids. The Good Ol' Days.

50Fifty: September 2009
http://50fifty.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 08, 2009. This I believe: I believe there is a God. Penn (from Penn and Teller) recently had a short segment on NPR where he explained his belief that there is no God. It is well written and makes one think, “Yeah, that sounds good. 8221; But at the same time, he words things in such a way that it belittles belief in God without directly attacking it. Just as an exercise in fairness I am going to rebut some of the hidden arguments here. This all starts out accurate and straightforward.
