So, was the whale really telling him to get out, or did it just sound like that?

That sounds like my high school algebra teacher. It all makes perfect sense now! Well, except for the algebra, of course.

Can you do the same with Amazon ebooks? That would solve the Amazon issue, too, partly. I love reading on my tablet, but I still haven't locked in with a particular ecosystem, as of yet. At this point, I have mostly torrented large collections of books in .txt format and read them using Moon+ Reader.

While this country was founded by groups of Christians, many of those Christians knew what it was like to suffer persecution for their beliefs. The founders of this country would probably roll over in their graves if they knew about some of the weird wacky religions and cults being practiced in America today. Still,…

"This is exactly what's wrong with science education in a country where God and state are supposed to be completely separate things, just like faith and religion can't be mixed with observation and science"

Yeah, seriously! I didn't know the people very well because I was new to the area, but I didn't think that would happen. I was 16, and wasn't interested in drinking, and I guess they thought I was too straight laced. I was a jock, and extremely careful about what I put in my body. I guess they thought it would be…

What Was Life Like Before iPhones?

Inverse square law is our friend. I stay as far away from these as I can.

I've never cheated online with multiplayer games. In fact, I hate cheaters. Years ago, I was an admin with a group of popular Team Fortress servers. I made it my job to root out people using aimbots and wallhacks, and loved being able to permaban every single cheater. Now, I have cheated on single player games in…

Modern healthcare is destroying humanity. It's only my opinion, but I believe the idea has merit. Yes, we're living longer than ever before, but at what cost? Infant mortality rates have plunged, along with increasing lifespans, all from improved healthcare. Years ago, a huge percentage of infants would die early,…

Instead of ramping this technology up, let's figure out a way to keep it small scale. I wouldn't mind being able to make the fuel I need in my garage and using it as I need it. Let's put big oil out of business.

I was given what I would consider a heavy dose of LSD one time as a joke. It wasn't funny. I'm not sure what is considered a psychotic event, but I'm sure my trip would count as such. It was extremely terrifying, and seemed to go on forever. Not only did I have a visual trip, but even my taste buds were heavily…

I have one family member who is more like a Rainman type of savant. He can recite facts and figures you could only find through a Google search, but couldn't figure his way out of a paper bag. Conversely, I have another family member without that ability, yet is very advanced in areas of math and other real world…

I'm sorry, I didn't realize there might be a definition other than your definition. Weird...

There's a comment section?

Then you are missing a truly extraordinary science fiction series. The only real downside to the series is how long it takes him to finish a book. While I enjoyed all the books, so far, book 3, A Season for Slaughter, has been my favorite. I can say very few science fiction novels have impacted the way I think and…

I love the series, and periodically go back and re-read it when the whim hits. Still, it's not going to swing my vote one way or another. Besides, at the rate he releases these books, I won't be alive by the last one anyway. He's not getting any younger, either, so I hope someone can carry on the series if he dies…

What's the best way to get away with it? ;-)

I've been told I have a rather large Corpus callosum. But seriously, I don't like to brag.

The Pre-Crime division has been watching you for a while now. It's just a matter of time...
