My best Gift so far

As both of my long-time readers know, I studied Mathematics in college, and have a BS to prove it. So there is rarely something having to do with said topic that I won't enjoy. And so it is with Useful Mathematical and Physical Forumulae

A wonderfully concise and delightfully illustrated book that covers most of what I've known at one time or another about math. I had a lot of fun going through it this afternoon and crossing many a dormant synaptic bridge.

Is it wierd that when I look back fondly on my college days, it's the classesI miss the most? It's certainly ironic, given that during college, it was also the classes I missed the most. :)

Ray Comfort is a dumbass

I chose this title for two reasons.

1. He really is a dumbass
2. I wanted at least one search engine hit for "Ray Comfort is a dubmass".

Now, who is he? He's a "critic" of Evolution. By "critic", I mean "someone who says things that really don't make any sense whatsoever." He wrote this book that I got for Giftmas.

I'd like to quote examples of this man's idiocy, but I'm become dumber for having been exposed to it. Luckily, I'm not alone in having been exposed to him, and the Intertubes abound with the commentary of others.

AND OMG! While looking for some to link to, I notced that he's the same idiot that made the homo-erotic video about Bananas!

Just awesome! This guy is so fucking gay. And I don't mean that figuratively. He is a flaming homosexual. Which is OK. It's the dumbassery I have a problem with.

Where I've lived

Thanks to Google's new (I think its new) "Add a destination" option, you can now create a single page that will show everywhere you've done something. Could be everywhere you've had sex, everywhere you've picked your nose, or everywhere you've lived.

being the lemming that I am, I did as Derek did and simply plotted the addresses I've had in my lifetime (exluding the first one, which I'd have to ask my mom about, as i have no memory of it)

Click Here to check it out. Of particular interest is that I've lived in three houses in one square block in Toledo, as well as three places within a square half mile here in Apex. The only times I moved more than 30 miles was when I lived in Columbus (from Toledo to Columbus to BG) and when I moved down here.
