So then, we are still in the process of moving to Livermore

right now and very busy so posts are going to be erratic or nonexistent for a little while here.  I spent yesterday chasing down a UPS package from at&t that had gone sideways in the system because it was sent to the new house and there was no one there to accept it and they noticed the apartment was empty.  I finally managed to locate it at the UPS Hub in San Ramon and used that as an excuse to go to Papa Murphy's in San Ramon last night and bring home some take-and-bake Gourmet Vegetarian Pizza, yum :-)

Tomorrow is Serenity's 9th birthday!  I can't believe it, time is just flying by so incredibly fast.  She was just 5 when she arrived here to stay with me.  I thank God every day for her and Lora being here, it's just the greatest thing ever as far as I'm concerned.  Woo Hoo!  God is good :-D !  Due to the move going on we are just going to have a small gathering of some of her friends, nothing fancy at all.  I'll post pictures to the family blog site after, maybe before we actually move I'll get a second to do that.

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?

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
