Happy Thanksgiving 2009!

This year we’ll wait until tomorrow for the big meal, because we want to have it with Gene and Rezia, and they are out of town today, visiting Gene’s family in western Kentucky.  In the meantime, maybe I can finally resize and post the pictures from last week’s anniversary celebration.  And here is a list [...]

They’re Right, Change IS Hard to Accept

Sorry I haven’t posted anything since Wednesday.  I have been busy finishing the draft for “The American Superpower,” the next history paper for The Xenophile Historian.  I got done with the composing of it yesterday, so now drudge work replaces brain-sweat.  All of this morning was spent doing the spelling and grammar checks, and converting [...]

I’m Now a Twit

No, not this kind of twit.

I’m talking about Twitter, as you might have guessed.  Yesterday I signed up for it, for the same reason that I signed up for Facebook — to spread the word about the upcoming launch of the Blastoff Network.  Leive suggested it, so if this works out for me, she might [...]

Impossible Fossils

I’m hearing more and more cases of fossils that are too well-preserved to be as old as the scientists claim they are.  In the past, the most amazing case for me was a Tyrannosaurus bone that still had blood vessels in it; they didn’t turn to stone or even dry out.  This is better than [...]

The Word is “Hubris”

Yesterday school started in the surrounding counties, and today it started here in Lexington.  Overall it’s not a big deal to me, because I don’t have any kids in school at this time; maybe it will be after we adopt Leive’s orphaned relatives in the Philippines.  However, it seems to explain the increased traffic on [...]

Is This the Real McCoy?

A lot of people wish the questions concerning Barack Obama’s birth certificate would go away, but if anything, they seem to be getting more attention than ever.  It’s because we know less about Obama than probably any other president we’ve elected, but last year we were told by the Democrats to trust him.  Heck, Bo [...]

So This Is David Rohl’s Home in Cyberspace

Not that he has been completely absent.  You can go through the messages I posted in the “New Chronology” category to see where else I’ve run into him, starting with the times in February and July of last year when he posted comments on this blog.  I also mentioned the New Chronology Group, where he [...]

Weird Money and a Codex Sinaiticus Update

There are many more kinds of money than just coins, paper bills and plastic cards.  How about a squirrel pelt?  A million billion dollar bill?  A coin which plays an excerpt from a JFK speech–that was made in Mongolia?  A twelve-ton stone that resembles a big wheel or millstone?  Check out them and others in [...]

He’ll Do Anything To Get On YouTube

Is this really necessary?  I put my parrot on YouTube last year, just because he was screaming too much; he didn’t ask to be a star.
Anyway, here’s a video of a Romanian truck driver who really gets carried away while listening to some Gypsy music.  And I thought text-messaging was supposed to be the most [...]

One Year Gone

Today — this hour, in fact — marks one year since my mother passed away.  My, how time has flown since then.  The whole family is aware of this anniversary, and we’re observing it with our own moments of silence.  If you want to see the pictures from her memorial service again, click on this [...]
