So the map of internet ownership was a little confusing, so I found a more concrete definition:

“Verizon Communications owns about 81% of all fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) subscribers in the United States, according to a report released today from Ovum-RHK.” (read more)

I can’t wait for them to start charging for usage…like $0.10 per email kinda thing…that’ll be cool.

There’s been a lot of talk concerning Global Warming recently so I decided to research the subject.  I have made the following observation:

NOTE: The graph could be redrawn with the horrific decrease in number of Columbia Basin Pygmy Rabbits.

There’s no such thing as evolution…just a list of animals that Chuck Norris allows to live.

For some time now I have been doing some soul searching.  It hurts, and though I will continue that search, I feel as though I found something:

Men seek many things.  We seek to glean for ourselves what little we can from this crappy life, to make as easy a life for ourselves as possible.  We lie, steal, and cheat our way towards our selfish ambitions, but some men…

“Some men come to restore.” (Madea’s Family Reunion)  A powerful and life changing statement.  It is not a statement of arrogance, but of purpose.  It is not a cliche, but a challenge.  It is not who I am, but it is at the core of who I long to be.

To be a man who, overwhelmed by God’s ever deepening love for me despite my imperfections, finds my self-seeking nature overthrown by love for my fellow man.  To love unconditionally, to forgive implicitly, and to seek the restoration of mankind to God The Father.

This morning, just after posting my last post, while reading an article on the devil, listening to a song saying, “everybody’s gonna die today,” I noticed the date…6/6/06…”dun dun dunnn”. And to top it all off, a guy in my office said, “dun dun dunnn” moments after I typed it.

For those of you who place spiritual significance on this date…don’t.

By the way, I’m moving out of my apartment this week.

Drive a bus the summer I will not.  Decided to stay in Tulsa I have.  Stop watching Star Wars before bed I must.

“Many hands make light work,” or so the saying goes. And if the saying holds true then China is going to win.

So they just announced the AI winner…Taylor Hicks, who rejoiced, the crowds went wild…and a special guest David Hasselhoff cried?  Anybody else catch that shot?  And what’s with “Best Male Bonding” award?  I tell you what, it’s moments like these that I’m proud to be American…and when the homecoming king and queen are crowned…and the Oscars, the Emmys, etc…and when Dino dedicated his last song at a gathering of pastors from all over the world to, “America, the greatest nation on earth!”…I was there…it was defining moment in my life.

I found a company that makes tansparent toasters…coolest invention ever…

Only problem is…”the glass does not currently get hot enough to toast bread”.

So why do they make them?
