Published on June 18, 2008

My former co-worker (and one heck of a good programmer) Matt Jenson just sent this to me:
Do you know anyone who would be a good system engineer? The church has a position which will be posted shortly. The pay is very competitive and the project they would be working on would have huge impact. This […]

I’m ready to “waste” my vote with a clear conscience

Published on February 12, 2008

If you were held accountable by God for your vote - would that influence the way you vote?
Its down to three. Sure Huckabee is still “in it” but someone needs to tell him he’s not really “in it”. At the rate Hillary’s going it will be down to two soon enough. Let’s take a look at what we have…
Hillary:
All I can say […]

MSNBC: pimping kid = suspension, bashing religion = no problem

Published on February 8, 2008

It must be confusing working at MSNBC as a commentator. I mean, how do you keep all the rules strait. Apparently they had no problem with Lawrence O’Donnell’s bigoted anti-Mormon remarks on the McLaughlin Group. However, when David Shuster, bashed the Clinton’s for “pimping” Chelsea - all hell broke loose. This from MSNBC:
“On Thursday’s “Tucker” […]

Did you seriously say that?

Published on December 14, 2007

Ever since Huckabee got a bump in the poles polls and since Mitt’s “speech on religion” the loons have been coming out of the woodwork. Take for example the recent outrageous statements made by MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell on The McLaughlin Group:
“Romney comes from a religion founded by a criminal who was anti-American, pro-slavery, and a […]

Published on November 9, 2007

OK, well he didn’t specifically talk about Chris Knudsen but his comments were certainly about my religion and my former profession as an LDS missionary. Speaking about Mitt Romney, Redford is quoted in the Washington Times saying:
“They (Mormons) are very adept at not being fazed and speaking fluently and gracefully. Why? Because every single male […]

Friday round up - from the “did you know” files…

Great thoughts from this week

Published on October 11, 2007

From Valleywag:
“Overstock.com usually charges $2.95 per order for shipping. However, when they drop the shipping price to $1, the average order size skyrockets. Why does saving two dollars on a $400 bookcase make people more likely to buy? Everyone loves a bargain, while no one loves math.”
Gee if that’s the case then why not go […]

It is time to consider Ron Paul

Published on August 7, 2007

I guess some people might consider this blogging “off topic”. Let’s get something strait - this is my blog. The topic of my blog is whatever I say it is.
