Serenity the Beheader

The other day Lora was playing one of those machines where you try to grab a toy with a remote controlled claw and accidentally ended up with Stewie Griffin from The Family Guy.

For some reason Lora thought of me when she got it and stuck it on my bed. Maybe it was the "Victory shall be mine!" quote on the tag, or his penchant for planning world conquest. Anyway, I left it on my bed for a couple of days but found it more and more repulsive, especially since I really can't stand Family Guy at all.


Today Serenity picked it up and I said to her, "You can have that thing, I don't want it." As she walked down the hall with it she shouted out "Shall we behead it?" Ah, my sweet, innocent, little executioner of a granddaughter. Brings a tear to my eye I tells ya.


As I posted this Serenity said "Die Stewie, die!"

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
