Blog Software Update

I've finally gotten around to upgrading my blog software and it seems to be working, but you will likely see changes in the look and functionality over the next few days or weeks. Thanks for your patience with the construction mess.

Coffee Thoughts

The following was printed on my Starbucks cup this morning:

So-called "global warming" is just a secret ploy by wacko tree-huggers to make America energy independent, clean our air and water, improve fuel efficiency of our vehicles, kick-start 21st-century industries, and make our cities safer and more livable. Don't let them get away with it!

- Chip Giller of Grist.org

HA! I love it.

Vader attacks Jedi Church

Two Jedi Church members were recently attacked by Darth Vader - a drunk man wearing a trash bag as a cape. Link.

Hat tip to Fels for the link who had this to say: "I find their lack of faith disturbing...or the fact that he drank a 2.5 gallon box of wine!"
