i was this close....! ha ha

the beginning of life!

I hold that science can answer the question what existed before our universe began, at least in principle. We don’t have a good answer at this time but we can formulate scientific theories and distinguish outright fantasies.

desertification... sad but beautiful.

friendship....

Perhaps the most delightful friendships are those in which there is much agreement, much disputation, and yet more personal liking.

Uganda in the news.... Kasubi tombs...

check out this video... pretty much sums it up for me!

ever felt out of the loop...?

silly things that make me smile n laugh...

a cat scan... like literally!





help wanted!





and this last one is to remind you that not all you read is true, more times than not you will find that the authors tend to have their own agendas (sometimes hidden and other times rather obviously blatant!).

Australia's Top Scientists Conclude Global Warming Still Happening

Australian Scientists Evidently In On Plot to Socialize America
According to an article in the radical left-wing communist pamphlet known as 'Reuters', Australia's climate scientists have convened in order to file a 'State of the Climate' report. Their findings? Three guesses, and the first two don't count. Yes, Australia's climate is changing--both its surface sea temperatures and mean temperatures have risen over the last 50 years. And this report was issued by Australian scientists--who have nothing to do with Michael Mann, Al Gore, or anyone at the CRU. But I'm guessing there's something sinister afoot anyways . . .

Here's the meat of their report, according to Reuters:


* Since 1960, the mean temperature in Australia has increased by about 0.7 degrees Celsius, but some areas of the country had warmed by 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius in the past 50 years, the report said.

* Australia's warmest decade on record is 2000 to 2009.

* While total rainfall in Australia had been relatively stable, the geographic distribution changed significantly over the past 50 years, with rainfall decreasing in southwest and southeast Australia, the major population areas.

* Sea levels around the island continent since 1993 have risen 7-10mm per year in the north and west and 1.5 to 3mm in the south and east, said the report.

* From 1870 to 2007, the global average sea level rose by close to 200mm (8 inches), sea levels rose at an average of 1.7mm a year in the 20th century and about 3mm per year from 1993-2009, it said.

* Sea surface temperatures around Australia have increased by about 0.4 degrees Celsius in the past 50 years.

* The scientists said global carbon dioxide concentration in 2009 of 386 parts per million (ppm) was much higher than the natural range of 170 to 300 ppm that existed in the atmosphere for the past 800,000 years and possibly 20 million years.

* The scientists said that based on their monitoring of the nation's climate for 100 years, Australian average temperatures are projected to rise by 0.6 to 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2030.


Hm. Seems pretty compelling . . .

But wait, climate change is a global conspiracy to take away American freedom, right? Surely the Australians are in on it! Sneaky Aussie bastards, trying to abet the plot to socialize America. Quick! Plug your ears, go back to the Drudge Report, lest you be indoctrinated! Science, what? I can't hear you! La la la la la!

rihanna should have featured chatroulette in her video... me thinks.

the first time i visited chatroulette i run under my pillow in shock from the gruesome images that were thrown at me. muppets wanking! (graphic; u may find Mosspuppet's pierced nipple incredibly disturbing, there is surely nothing worse than that! or is there...?) trust me it gets worse... much worse. which is also what makes it such a fun site to visit when bored. (i like being shocked back to life he he...).

Recently i checked out a chatroulette pianist, improvising songs based on people's looks and actions... not too shabby...


usually ur treated to scenarios like the one below...

not sooo ayoba..... ;-(

When I get problems or seriously bad news like today… my body tends to respond the same way a mountain gorilla in Bwindi would…





My first instincts are to run and secondly to respond to a sudden urge to respond to a rather abrupt bowel movement…(am telling you, it’s crazy but thanks to a recent vegan diet its also a very smooth ride… fiber fiber FIBER).


Wish I could just huff my problems away. Guess to get a handle on any problem one first has to get perspective. The way you see things determines to a great extent the success you will have with dealing with them. (years of self-help books finally paying off...). You see a mountain, I see an adventure to conquer. You see a roadblock, I see an opportunity to test my people skills (hey you don’t get far in life by always playing nice. Once in a while you have to do what you have to do…).






Well waiting for the afternoon to see how my brother's little run in with the law works out. When it comes to things you can’t change it takes a great discipline to realize that really there is not that much you can do. (i do like to try… sometimes it does make you feel better).

here i am trying to keep an open mind. (hoping for the best and preparing for the worst).

i found this Übercool....

check out this slide show... showcases some nice animal shots...

life is more fun with less junk....
