I've always hated the fact that the "theory" of evolution is completely juxtaposed to the most basic scientific method. Nice paper!

Who that Deschanel chick? I get them confused but, I think they're both beautiful.
Yes, I think the name's Emily Deschanel. Stunning. We're close in age too. I could score her.

i like this question that is a few down...
Dear Cecil:
I've often wondered why flagellating underwater produces a more horrific odor than an airborne sample from the same batch. --Richard Reneau, assistant director of maintenance, Austin State Hospital
i've been using the same paper dixie cup to drink water out of for the past 3 months, every day. i know it's gross, and the cup is really disintegrating rapidly, but i continue to drink out of it on a daily basis. i think i'm just trying to prove a point.
ugh.
the only thing in my garbage bin by the end of the day is about 20 plastic water cups.
I'm a water cooler chatter!

Anyone wanna switch jobs for the rest of the afternoon? I'm going through my client's financial info and he's got like 10 CD accounts which were transferred between each other which I have to trace. Doesn't anyone else know that CDs are like, the worst kind of account to "invest" in? You might as well buy bonds for the amount of return you get.

**ONE MORE QUESTION**
Ok, has anyone ever had to switch schools in the middle of the year? How old were you? Do you think it was a bad thing? Did you have a hard time making friends? Any advice you'd give kids who have to do the same?
Haha - I must've gone to like 5 different schools when I was little; and rarely did we move in the summertime. I think it helped me to learn to be independent and not care what other people think. And I think those are both crucial qualities to staying in the truth. I remember it being tough at the time, but in retrospect, I'm glad I had those experiences to make me a stronger person. I've seen so many friends who were kind of shielded by their parents go off the deep end and leave the truth.
I was going to say almost the exact same thing. I've had a very similar situation. No need to reiterate. This is all true.
wowzer! i just reached my 4400th login!
so who is going to go to the Jajaboo concert
KEVIN FEDERLINE!!! WHAT A SCUMBAG!!!
do you know what a scumbag is?
ohh you BOTH just said dirty words... IAN!
radio 4 sucks as a band
I'm sure most of us have already heard about the Tsunami in Japan.
Hoping there are no fatalities and minimal injuries if any. A few weeks ago two Japanese sisters we know were visiting here, hope they're alright to.
The first waves were actually pretty small so no injuries or lives lost =)
The local government are anticipating higher waves so people will be evacuated to higher ground.
Wait, wait - are you talking about this one? Not that CNN is always the most trustworthy news source, but it says they expect other waves to only reach like 6.5 feet. That's not life threatening - that's good surfing. The media is so sensationalistic sometimes.
Has anyone seen the zune? I was at office max today, and they had them out, the screen is huge, but so is the entire player. unfortunately the one at office max wasn't a "working" version. I wanna see how the menu screens work.
it's not bad looking. the big screen is sweet! but i prefer my ipod =)

what were you doing at OfficeMax?? Haven't i taught you all that Staples is the only place to go?? Shame on you!
Big game this weekend....HUGE game...GO OSU!!!!!
Boo. You know nothing. GO SCARLET KNIGHTS!!!
We were 2nd in the BCS Computer - ahead of OSU!!!
What does that mean?
Anyone talking about strength of schedule can SHUT THEIR PIE HOLE!
Because the BCS puts that into account and we're number 2 !!
If we win out and don't make the BCS Championship... thats ROBBERY
dude sportscenter had them at 7th in the BCS Standings...
We're actually 6th in the BCS.
Thats the monster of the BCS Rankings .. it takes into account 3 polls and BCS Computer calculations. Polls are from Coaches, Sportswriters...
Sportswriters who really have no idea what life is about anyway.
They sit there and talk about a weak conference... While the BCS Computer actually calculates strength of schedule and quality of win...etc. puts them at 2nd.
And no idea how our conference can be weak when we had louisville and WV in the hunt for a bcs championship.
Sports is so stupid.
Stop watching them
Court on Friday...Joy...
Ok, I need to get a discussion going.....you all know the stuff that's been going on with Tyler and school and stuff, from what I've mentioned....and I need to get everyone's thoughts on public school vs. homeschool. Nothing is being considered right now, but I need to get sort of a pros/cons discussion going. :)
From my own experience with Emily, I see that public school is not a good situation for her. Unfortunately I have no wife to be home with her to do it, so I'm in a pickle. If your situation allows you to school him at home, I would do it if I were you. There is too much temptation, not to mention silly nonsense that goes on in school.
And see, I worry about that, but at the same time, I feel like he needs to learn how to handle certain situations, to better prepare him for when he's older.....it's that rock and a hard place thing....because I know he'd like being at home with me, but I don't know if it's 100% the best thing, even though where he's at now, is making him miserable.
It depends on the situation. Emily has behavior problems, so I'm constantly talking with the school to control it. She never got enough attention from her mother, so I think it has scarred her. So now it translates into her being stubborn and not wanting to do what she is told. I have no problems with Jake. He adjusts easily. In his case, having him in school is fine, but Emily is a different story. Should've had 2 boys. LOL!
Give it some thought and prayer and find the answer you shall.
Maybe you should take her to a therapist. Most insurance agencies cover it.
Yeah, I'm working on that. I left a message with a place today.
I'm always amazed when I read the pysch evaluations of little kids for custody cases at work - play therapy is amazing to me; even the brains of small children are vastly complex.
Yup. I've been dealing with this for over a year now. So it's time to get it taken care of. I thought going to Kindergarten would help her, but I guess not.
the nonsense only gets bigger and sillier once they are out of school. i think school is a good learning experience and gives kids a chance to defend their faith and make stands for Jehovah. I think it does kids a disservice by sheltering them too much.
True. Again it depends on the child.
I'm no expert, but a personal opinion is that if its an issue where is sprtl or phsycl being is being harmed i'm all for homeschool. But if any problems aren't worked out now when they are not (relatively) so serious, what happens when he is older and has to deal with the same issues with older people and the situations are serious?
i def agree that homeschool should be an option if a child's health and welfare is in serious danger.
I kinda agree with Broman. It certainly depends on the kid. But, I'd lean toward public school. It'll teach the kid to cope with all kinds of problems and make a personal stand for his faith. It's a tough world to live in. You can't coddle them til their 18. They need to get out there and build their own armor. Get a little dog's blood on their face, so to speak.
And that's certainly true for a child like my son Jacob. My daughter Emily, well... We'll see what happens. From what I know of Tyler his traits seem somewhat similar to Emily's. I have the bruises from plastic lightsabres to prove it. LOL! It's not either of their faults. All kids develop differently.
Therapy should help her with that. So many of my clients think there's a stigma attached to sending their small kids to therapy, but really, they can only benefit from it. It's designed to help them with social issues which trickle down into other behaviors. Maybe if Tyler's having a lot of trouble adjusting (assuming no outside factors are egregious), therapy might help him too.
Yeah, she is a very sweet and affectionate little girl. And Tyler seemed like a very fun and loving kid when I met him. It's sad to see little people go through these problems.
no, it IS their faults! electro-shock therapy! STAT!
I'd take pleasure in sending voltage through you. LOL!
HAHAHAHAHA, dude, we should hang out sometime.
Well, if you like hanging out with little kids too, sure.
Today's game: GUESS THE MOVIE
"Would arterial red suit you? Make no mistake. They are very well trained. I snap my fingers again and tomorrow you emerge from several canine rectum."
oh snap. what movie is that from? that's pretty hardcore!
the irony is the movie isn't...
please tell me you don't have this movie memorized line for line. I googled the answer realized how lame the movie is and decided not even to mention the correct answer
lol, Last Action Hero
Believe it or not, I kinda dug that movie.
I DIE laughing when Arnold says "you wanna be a farmer? well, he's a couple of achers!" And then kicks the dude in the nards.
Sorry, I'm terminally immature.
you too? What's with the CHEATING?!
it's not cheating if the only 3 people have watched the entire movie.
hey is there a mod on here?

xbox live, possibly greatest invetion ever for console!
i agree. i love it. i'd say for how much i pay and how much fun i have... it's the best value i've ever encountered.
what games you play on it?
Just Halo2 and Gears of War. Just got Splinter Cell: Double Agent, gonna try that out. Used to play a lot of GR2 and I'm about to get my hands on GRAW.
i think im addicted to oreos, we got 3 bags in the house and there is a good chance they will be gone by friday. Darn them and the goodness that they are!
okay, so i came up with this scenario during the meeting for service this morning, (yes, i was daydreaming) there is this little baby in our hall and her name is Skyy, so i was thinking, if you were a Star Wars fan, and you had 3 kids, you could name the first boy Luke, the girl Skyy and the 2nd boy Walker. hahaha
there is one family i know and the
girl's name is harley and
the boys' name is davidson.
so harley davidson in one family.
or Blue and Martini
or Patsy and Kline
yeah but the one kid is already named Skyy
get it
Skyy and Vodka!
or jack and coke. or abominable and snowman.
whats with the second y?
as if sky with one "y" isn't a lame enough name
I wanna give our first kid the middle name skywalker, liam doesn't like it too much, but she will learn to love it. i guess if we have a girl we could name her skye (first name) walker (middle name)
"She will learn to love it" - that's awesome.
i hope your first kid has your dance moves!!!!!!!
haha, thanks, i CAN bust a sweet move or two.
yeah i know, we LOVE it!!! esp when you were dancing behind that one kid at the wedding..oh my goodness, i think i peed a little i laughed so hard...
a girl i knew has the name Crytal Shanda Lear....i thought that was pretty clever but odd. LOL
My friend in WA, her hubby's first name is Brock and the Last name is Lee. LOL
So, I constantly find myself wanting to listen to music when I'm listening to Queens of the Stone Age.
You read that right. When QotSA is on, I think to myself, man I feel like listening to some music...
And then I realize that I am listening to music. It's just not doing anything for me, and I practically forget it's there.
Maybe you are stoned...
i didn't eat any pot-laced burgers from Burger King, that's for sure.
Well then, maybe your job is boring. Haha...
my family comp is stupid. it won't play the sound on youtube videos. errr
Mac? Launch Garage band, and try again.

So my sister in law's boyfriend flies in to AZ tomorrow....should be interesting...none of us (except her parents and her) have ever met him. Adam is slightly unhappy about the whole arrangement, haha....protective older brother.
What'd she meet him online or something? Should've flung her my way. LOL!!
Hahah....he lives in PA, she met him through some family friends when she visited there a few months ago.
I am the king of getting shot down. LOL!
ah man, what happened
Well, it was a gentle shoot down. At least the person was honest and we can be friends. Just seems like I get a lot of rejection. Oh well...life goes on.
maybe theres something better out there for you! so look at it as a blessing in disguise.
I suppose. We shall see.
kidnap her! sack her!
How about I put you in a sack and throw you in the Hudson River. LOL!
If you really "LOL!" that hard on your own lame joke there...
I have a great joke for you... but you might kill yourself with it.. because apparently it's going to be super "LOL" with multiple exclamation points for you - and i'm not sure if you can handle it

So this weekend I found out something... hmmm how should i describe this. Niave? Cute? Clueless? Well whatever the term you would pick... Anyways, in a conversation I had with Webtoed, she thought that my INCESSANT ramblings about "Fergie" was in reference to the Dutchess of York, and not to the sexy singer... So yeah, I find this hilarious. Pics below to show the difference..

Fergie from the black eyed peas... hotness

Duchess Of York... with puppies
Hahaha - "clueless". I just didn't want to but you. I figured you have your own taste in women and I wasn't going to question it. :)
I meant "bug" you. I always type poorly on monday mornings.
And also in my defense, I barely pay attention to your ramblings - I pick one word here, one word there, because I think that's all you have to contribute anyway. :P
one day someone is going to collect all my postings, thoughts, ideas, poetry, and write a book... And you will come to my book signing and i WONT sign YOUR book... yeah... i wont!
"Poetry"? If what you write is ever considered poetry, I'm going to stop reading completely.
web toed chloe is gay

"Disdain" is spelled with a "d", professor.

wow beyond hilarous, haha
i still dont get why peeps dont think she's hot. she looks dang hot for a 31 year old. and beleive me i've seen some 21-25 year olds that look OLDER than fergie!
i think has to do with the tranny like looking face. She scares me!
lol tranny?
oh you know what i mean!
Rule #1. Dont date girls who do or used to do Crystal Meth!
it's taken me all day to admit this, but
i am kind of attracted to Fergie, Duchess of York. I always have been. I think it's because she moved to America to hide and lose weight. Or maybe it's the fact that she married royalty. I don't know.
woooow dude... WOOOOOW
Well then, at least it's not Fergie - Alex Ferguson or Fergie - Craig Ferguson you're attracted to.
or ferguson from clarissa explains it all

is mcsorley's just a bar? is it a good place to hang out for a bit before/after a show at webster hall?
Who are you going to see at Webster Hall? I was just there a few weeks ago for Flogging Molly...strange venue.
Imogen Heap
its a sweet place dude, the oldest ale house in the city and its not far at all from webster hall
it's a pretty authentic pub. great atmosphere. a mix of hardcore locals and visiting passers through. nothing too crazy. Swift's is good too.
just a bar and they don't like you lingering. you need to keep drinking or they yell at you to leave. and they aren't fans of the ladies.
hrm sounds pretty nonpubish
Anybody want to see "Stranger Than Fiction" tonight?
15 minutes and then I leave. Yay!! It's nice to have no kids to worry about. I come in early, I leave early. Sweet!
So Monster, are the floodwaters in Washington affecting your area?
No too bad... roads flooded around the complex where I work, but further out the valley where we have our conventions... lots are being evacuated. http://tinyurl.com/y8hojb
That stinks. Good time to take a trip. Haha...
Spending the day in NYC this Sunday.. anything cool going on?
I think this is too personal Ian. Shame on you! Hahaha...
Well...Tomorrow morning I am doing something interesting. Probably shouldn't blab it out though. Haha...don't need undo attention...yet.
I think he meant 'does anyone know of anything interesting going on sunday in nyc'...
Ah, gotcha.
the 'Bodies' exhibit is still going on at SSS. And turkish brunch is always good
Already saw the Body Worlds exhibit in Philly, so we'll pass on that.
But what is a turkish brunch?
Also want to find a nice restaurant I can take Mikayla to... hmm didn't we already have a thread on this a while back
I could go for a 2 hour nap right about now.
