"But don't take my word for it"

2009-02-13T15:20:57-06:00

"If you can not be happy being alive and in existence, happy today, you will never be happy. Happiness is not in the future; it is in the fleeting moment. You can not find happiness in other people or things. Happiness has always been there and always will be, you only have to relate it to your own existence. " -Dr. Deszo Benedek

Hint: A trip to the park would be nice this Valentine's Day

2009-02-09T16:45:27-06:00

Here's to I love you!

the park
First, lovely weather has been about as of late. Second, I'm not one much for the celebration of Valentine's day -- rather I think we should celebrate love EVERY day! No, I'm not in want of diamond rings and heart-shaped boxes of candy with red or pink glitter to boot, rather a daily reminder in the form of one kind phrase - I love you!

When I started using the InterWEBS

Well.. I'm unfamiliar with screeds and Usenet ... so I think that makes me a newer convert.. My family got the "WORLD WIDE WEB" when I was about 12.. so... I guess that makes me a user of 10 years. Unfortunately, I was more concerned with what time my friends were going to be in the chat room than Tolkien. It's the sad truth.

My fear of kids these days!

2009-02-04T15:55:05-06:00

The only thing we have to fear is Fear itself!

And kids are the future.. SO fear=kids=future.. if A=B and B=C, then I believe A=C -- that doesn't seem correct..

But no, seriously, people should take responsibility for their own actions.. and that is a dying art among the kids these days.

Glad I kept the receipt

2009-02-03T17:26:51-06:00

Yuca doesn't come with a receipt.

One year for Christmas my brother got me a Yuca root.. There I stood Yuca root in hand, confused look (as it was wrapped in a large box), brother laughing hysterically. No, I did not regift it.

America needs Captain Planet and the Planeteers

2009-02-03T16:56:58-06:00

Look to the early 90s for answers to life's questions.. Only the guiding light of Ted Turner and LeVar Burton will save us now.

Captain Planet and the Planeteers
One great word.. Edutainment. Deforestation, Super Radiation ??, Smog, Toxics, and Hate.

My ideal Super Bowl halftime show would include Kung Fu performers.

Kung Fu performers
Who doesn't like to see Kung Fu? Always entertaining and infinitely better than Bono, Janet Jackson, or Justin Timberlake.. I'm not sure Bono has ever done the Super Bowl Halftime show.. but that's beside the point.
