  • I Cried When I Watched Babe …

    I wonder how swine flu will change how people look at the movie Babe.  I remember when Babe was playing in some Asian country the consumption of pork went down.  Looks like this swine flu is the real deal.  I just wonder when they’ll start declaring duct tape and plastic wrap alerts!    Man, I want some bacon right now.  It’s also funny because folks are going after this one Senator because they voted against included some stimulus money for flu pandemic preparations.  The Senators point was is it really stimulus worthy or should it just go into the normal budget which it really should go to.  Oh well, people always want to point a finger so this is a convenient one.

    For those who use Facebook, looks like they’re gonna start allowing third-party sites access to your Facebook data.  Not sure I agree with that but that’s gotta be some form of revenue for Facebook so I can see why they would do that.  Not that I use Facebook but I guess I should start to lock it down.  Lock it down.

    Looks like drifting isn’t just for car drivers going around turns anymore.  I thought it was interesting study only because it really does show where peoples focus is at.  This quote was pretty interesting:

    “It suggests that what leads people to leave their faith is that, somehow for some reason, it isn’t meeting their needs,” Green said. “Religion becomes less plausible to the person.”

    Why does it always have to be about us?  Our needs?  Doesn’t that just make us humans sound like flakey, whiney, selfish fleshbags?  Not that I’m the perfect example but come on is this really surprising news?  It’s like being told about this great vacation place called Disney World while currently being in D.C.  But you only make it as far as South of the Border because the journey is too long and well South of the Border isn’t that bad.
