I have NO IDEA what is going on in my life, so this is bits and pieces of what's occuring. Tuesday, May 24, 2005. OK, So, I put In A Bid On The House I Want. Well, here I go, I've started the bidding process on the house of my dreams. Here's a recap of the description: it's in East Nashville, about 6 blocks from the beautiful Shelby Bottoms Park, walking distance from 5 Points, the main area of shops, galleries, bars and restaurants. Hopefully, I'll have an answer in the next day or so. Links to this post.

Faith and Culture: May 2005
http://faithandculture.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 27, 2005. Slice 'em and dice 'em; they're still people. Yesterday’s online version of The New York Times. Carried an editorial titled, The President’s Stem Cell Theology. The title is interesting for what it tells us about The Times. Despite its frowning on President Bush’s alleged religious stance on the issue, it is the paper itself which seems to want to argue this issue only on theological grounds. Rising sentiment for the policies of Stalin never made them right, despite what many in thi...

Just some random ramblings from my head. Monday, November 07, 2005. In theory, you could push fiber (-optic networks) up to 150 trillion bits per second - a rate that would deliver the text of all the books in the U.S. Library of Congress in about a second." - unfortunately, the U.S. greatly lags behind the entire rest of the world in fast network access:. Broadband lines per person in 2004: South Korea - 25; U.S. - 12. Annualized rate of broadband growth, 1Q2005: Turkey - 263%; U.S. - 34%.

Just some random ramblings from my head. Friday, July 07, 2006. I'm almost embarrassed to mention this, but I hadn't seen this before . but they have photos of Mars weather! In particular, "dust devils" or mini-tornadoes. This photo is from the Tau Beta Pi link (see previous post), the original is at NASA's site:. Http:/ photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/PIADetQuery.html and search for 'dust devils'. Posted by: jbp4444 / 10:38 AM. I didn't know this either! Links to this post:.

Just some random ramblings from my head. Wednesday, July 27, 2005. Space Shuttle is Aloft Again . And a piece of foam insulation breaks off again. It's a good time to remember the danger that still surrounds space flight and the courage of the men and women who are flying in our Space Shuttles. Recent memories of the Columbia, and Challenger, don't even tell the whole story. Apollo 1 was destroyed on the launch pad. Several Soviet cosmonauts also were lost on various Soyez missions:.

Just some random ramblings from my head. Tuesday, July 18, 2006. From Ed Nisley at Dr. Dobbs Journal:. Here's a useful number: with electricity priced at $0.12 per kilowatt-hour, an always-on device dissipating 1 watt costs $1 per year. That wall-wart cell-phone charger that you leave plugged in under your desk costs $5 per year and your fancy LCD panel burns $8 a year when it's turned off.". Touch one. If it's warm or hot to the touch, then electricity must be going through it. Links to this post. I don...

Just some random ramblings from my head. Monday, August 29, 2005. My sister's blog got hit with some blog-spam (not sure if there's a new name for that or not). The problem, of course, is that since it is free to sign up for a blogger account, anyone can do it including spammers. And if you shut down one spam-username, they'll just start a new one (since it's free). Posted by: jbp4444 / 4:04 PM. Links to this post. Stupid People and the DMV. Seem stupid, but I really just can't. Yes folks, that's what I ...
