Yo Gabba Gabba meets Jimmy Eat World

This is fun, and a bit trippy actually. Zach the drummer for Jimmy Eat World blogs here. I don't know Zach, but we have some mutual friends I think. One day maybe I'll be able to share a beverage with him and he can tell me what it's like to fly through the sky on the back of a house pet.

This is old school. You've probably seen this. But I can't have a Sad and Funny Videos without adding this. We've all done something like this actually. So I suppose it makes it more Funny than Sad.

Greenspan

I never had the patience to listen to Greenspan all those times he has appeared before Congress. Frankly, I'm not a numbers guy and I get lost with the economic jargon very quickly. But it's very interesting to listen to him here. Where he is invited to share his opinion on the current economy. Frankly, I would love to see more of him. There are few people in the world who understand the global and US economy like this man does.

i laughed a lot

To quote Brant,
"This video again demonstrates a Kamp Krusty postulate: There's a fine line between "touching and inspiring" and "this will haunt me the remainder of my days."

Juan Williams

You don't have to like Obama to appreciate the moment do you? The emotion of Juan Williams as he talks is what stands out to me and the meaning it seems to have for him in a moment of something akin to vulnerable. As followers of Christ, regardless of your political stance, or lack there of, can we recognize this as meaningful and important for us all? I keep watching this video over and over.
Tell me what you think.

on Biden

I personally don't know who I will vote for in November. Chances are you will never know who i choose. But Biden is such an interesting choice for VP to me. I know the criticisms. But I have been a Biden fan for a long time.

Do you remember this in the debates? I thought Obama's and Biden's answers were memorable.

More on T. Boone's Plan

I confess I know little about the systemic implications of his plan. I'm sure he'll benefit from it. I'd love to hear your thoughts and incite. Here's more on his plan.

The Atheist Nightmare??? um....

Saw this on Andrew Sullivan last week. I have words, but I'll refrain, and let you draw your own conclusions.



Andrew then has a reader post this.

Here's what a reader says

The banana in question is a Cavendish Banana, which actually are asexual offshoots of larger, bulkier banana plants. These supermarket mutants bear little resemblance to their progenitor, the wild banana, which is a green oval-shaped thing full of large seeds and liquid (see above). The domestication of the wild banana began between 5000 and 8000 years ago, and only after thousands of years of farming and breeding (one can call that evolution if one wishes) did they even begin to slightly resemble their celebrated yellow hue, curved shape and 'natural' wrapper.

Christian apologetics has certainly deteriorated over the centuries. From Saint Thomas Aquinas and Rene Descartes with their long treatises to washed up child stars with poorly constructed 'common sense' appeals in only 800 years. The fruit, I suppose, has fallen far from the tree.
