I think that's the whole deal here. Everyone has their spiritual life dictated to them, not just Catholics. I think most people get by with only small ideological or theological variations on what they've been spoon fed. After reading this book, I think a lot of people had to read some more...

I was thinking about the term student athlete this weekend. Here in the US, anytime that a college sporting event comes on television, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) loves to point out in commercials that collegiate athletes are students first and athletes second. They...

Geez, guys. It's no wonder why Vonnegut and people like him are such pessimists. Governments are in the early stages of developing mind control. To make this surreal story complete, we just need to find out that something like the movie Unbreakable is happening out there, mainly because we're...

As a kid, I was convinced that if I tried enough it would eventually work, but it didn't. What about all those black and white films that they claim are from government labs with people moving things in glass jars? I used to watch "Hard Copy" and "A Current Affair", those late afternoon "news"...

Yeah, space is a good thing. Who likes to be crowded when shopping for books? I realize it has to be a trade off for bookstores though. It's not very efficient to have less merchandise per area of salesfloor.

If you can make it to the UK, I hear Dover has some nice ones. Oregon here in the US is home to some good cliffs as well. Don't do it though. Not all matter gets to live.

Okay, sorry that I've been gone for a while. I've been busy. Work is riding me like a horse. Ephedra has been used for a LONG time in China. In the last 10 years, it's found a new home over here. You can mix about 20 mg of ephedra with 200 mg caffiene and other stimulants (yohimbine HCl...

For price, you can't beat Amazon.com, but I love going into a bookstore. I have to agree that Borders has a great layout. Everything is easy to find, the staff is on top of things, and they have computer access to locate the book or see if it's even in the store. Borders is a little bit more...

Happy Birthday. I, too, am in the club. Next year will be the last year that I consider myself eligible for the mid twenties club. Then, it's late twenties. Then... well, I'm going to drive off a cliff. You can do whatever you want.

Hi, Mary! I'm an engineer that loves to read too. I could be mistaken, but I think we're a rare breed. I see you love Vonnegut, too. I'm in the middle of a Vonnegut marathon. I'm currently reading Wampeters, Fomas, and Granfalloons with Breakfast of Champions waiting in the wings.

Yeah, baby. I just heard on CNN HLN that a federal judge overturned the ban on ephedra.

If you've read the book Case for a Creator, which was the one I was talking about, you know he wrote the book as if he's a skeptic, and you also know he wasn't when he wrote the book. His writing style gives you the impression that his coverage of the subject is a balanced look to sway him to...

I love John Hartford, but I never saw him. I was introduced to his music after he died.

So, a Jewish guy that makes Jesus dolls walks into a bar...

No doubt. I've never seen an interview with him where the host could keep him on topic. He's too damn silly. "Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?" That's one of my favorite episodes, bob.

I think Carey is silly to no end, and the fact that he can actually act too places him in the all-around category with Jamie Foxx.

Have any of you ever seen The Dirty Dozen Brass Band? Wow. That's a good show. I've seen them a couple of times, and there just a ton of fun.

Yeah. Paz Vega. Sex and Lucia was a shock for me.

Someone hit my car last night, and drove off. Left no insurance or contact information. It destroyed my driver's side fender to the point that I can't even open my door. Then this poor excuse for a human being gives me a ticket for doing 72 in a 65. I explain to him that I'm about to be out...
