So what's new, James?
Oh, not much. Working. Taking some photos. Organizing cool conferences.
Oh, and just this on a Leap Day: Creation Science Fair 2001.
"My Uncle Is A Man Named Steve (Not A Monkey)"
Cassidy Turnbull (grade 5) presented her uncle, Steve. She also showed photographs of monkeys and invited fairgoers to note the differences between her uncle and the monkeys. She tried to feed her uncle bananas, but he declined to eat them. Cassidy has conclusively shown that her uncle is no monkey.

"Women Were Designed For Homemaking"
Jonathan Goode (grade 7) applied findings from many fields of science to support his conclusion that God designed women for homemaking: physics shows that women have a lower center of gravity than men, making them more suited to carrying groceries and laundry baskets; biology shows that women were designed to carry un-born babies in their wombs and to feed born babies milk, making them the natural choice for child rearing; social sciences show that the wages for women workers are lower than for normal workers, meaning that they are unable to work as well and thus earn equal pay; and exegetics shows that God created Eve as a companion for Adam, not as a co-worker.

Thank someone or bless something that the Internet has brought such delights to us. And there's always this Onion article too: Evangelical Scientists Refute Gravity With New 'Intelligent Falling' Theory.
The world truly is a magical place.
It's not every day that you get an email about riding camels. Or rather, an auto responder. But that's what I received yesterday from Darren, who's in Morocco.
Subject: Gone to the Sahara, Feb. 27 to March 3Hi,
I'm on a short holiday, riding camels and such. I'll be out of email
and phone contact for this period. I'll be back online at about 2:00pm
PST (10:00pm GMT) on Monday, March 3. Thanks. DB.
At my insistence he's calling it CamelCamp. I'm told there will be photos to come in this space.
Back in October when we visited Darren and Julie in Malta, Darren mentioned he wanted to 'go out into the desert.' From his account of the trip their travel will be more themed around seeing the countryside than '40 days and 40 nights, let my people go, Pharoah,' and excellent fun. I look forward to the camel snaps.
Praise Jesus I've found this site: Stuff White People Like. Now I knows what afflicted my lily ass.
I wasn't above faking the funk on a nasty dunk prior to being all enlightened up, and shit. But now I'm down with the real jive.
Of course, back when I was a cracker, I could related to all those things that whitey likes, and only white people like: bicycles, public radio and sushi.
Now I just say, "What it is, my brother?" And be done with it. I don't give a rat's ass. I'd rather be dumb and stupid, than white. Punk.
