On the path to enlightenment there are a lot of people who, for whatever reason, want to keep you from the truth and they have a few ingenious techniques for doing so. One of these goes like this: Present a little bit of truth along with a lot of falsehood

From my high school years to the years I spent at Rutgers University studying biology, I have been told that “evolution has no direction.” At first, I accepted this notion, although I always felt that there was something wrong with it. While it’s true that beings do not evolve to
I have not read the article depicted on the cover of the latest issue of The New Individualist. However, I did think that the image chosen for the cover and the title were interesting when compared with an earlier issue.
The Discovery networks are really becoming ridiculous. This even aside from the gratuitous references to “global warming” and “climate change” with the not-so-hidden message that people are the plague of the earth. I’ve gotten somewhat used to that message, really. And if you can stomach the backwards values, the shows can
This is very well done and it will definitely get you thinking about our place in the universe. I have no doubt there are civilizations galore out there. To me this is simple statistics. Seeing all of these galaxies out there is very humbling and I think it serves well
Ever noticed that a lot of non-American book publishers print their book spines upside down? Those of you who read books published by both American and foreign publishers may have noticed that many foreign book spines are upside down. No offense, but they ARE upside down. One would expect that

USA Today is featuring this nice Presidential Approval Tracker that lets you compare the approval ratings of various presidents during their time in office. I’m not much for polls and approval ratings. I tend to think there is way too much leeway there for propaganda. Nevertheless, it’s sometimes worthwhile to
I really love these sneakers. There was a time when I enjoyed working out in the gym, but these days, I prefer being outdoors. For that reason, and because I am lucky enough to live within walking distance of nearly everywhere I would need to go, I get most of
Yes, spring is here and since I had a post on the first cherry blossoms, I figured why not post on the first babies? Here they are – all eleven of them… and they don’t seem the least bit concerned about global warming! Really this post is just to remind
It’s officially the first day of spring. And despite the dusting of snow this morning, it’s a pretty nice day. A day worth documenting, I thought, with a few glimpses of what’s to come in a few weeks. It’s over faster than you can say “Hooray! It’s Spring!” so get
Part of my daily routine includes a walk in the park where I practice being as aware of my surroundings as possible. These are techniques I learned reading Tom Brown Jr.’s nature observation and tracking guides, but is also something that I think comes from just being interested in a
So, about a week ago I was checking my logs and saw someone typed in the search terms “how low can the dow go”. That sounded like panic to me. Now, a while back I told you it COULD happen, remember? Well, looking at this chart, it’s sure starting to
Ok, so I this morning I do my usual quick check of the Drudge Report and what do I see? PELOSI SAYS BIRTH CONTROL WILL HELP ECONOMY And all I can think is – she and all her buddies on the hill can always commit suicide. Now that WOULD help
I really am feeling these days that I am living in a matrix. Not just a system created by elites… a real cosmic joke. The absurdity here of course is that it took a ban on FOX HUNTING for the British people to realize that they wanted their guns back.
