Hawking

Well I was wathcing the new Stephen Hawking show that discussed Aliens. And he said something that made the weight loss pills shoot right out of me.

If there are aliens with really cool technology do not expect them to be nice. The odds of them coming in peace would be small. After all look what Chrisopher Columbus did to the New World, as Hawking says, it did not turn our to well for the natives.

So this raises the question. Why do we keep trying to get aliens to see us. I am not to sure.

Well I hope that you have a good day.

Why this or that.

I would love to study surfing and the hows and why of surfing. I think it would be a cool study. How am I a Dungeons and Drangons site the over to slashdot.org and then find myself at http://www.weightlosspills.net with just a click. The question would be how to understand the why of the change.

I look at my own habits and am not even sure why I end up where i do. I mean sometimes it seems so random. I know that google and other companies are trying to understand the why. Why do they want to know. Becasue there is commercial value in it. Why does Obama not regulate this? Uhmmm . .. maybe casue they gave piles of money to Obama.

Forms of Beauty

We were talking about the some of the Greek Statues in class today and how the Greeks looked at perfection. One of the students pointed out that none of the girls needed tol have acne cream. This then brought out a second question about American views of beauty. And why do women shave their legs?

Esp. when it is thought that not one European woman does. Of course many in Europe do shave their legs and such. Shaving legs and pits appears to come from the ancient Babaylonians. Yes that many many years ago. It was the time of Daniel in the Bible.

Have a happy day.

Getting Rid of the Junk

I recently found out that two people from my high school, who did drugs have had two very differing experiences while trying to get off. Both of these kids from high school were some of the more serious dopers.

Tim (not her real name) spent a week kicking the habit. He goes around and talks with people about the detox program and what he went through. To be honest, hearing him talk about the detox process would be more then enough to keep me off drugs.

Then there is Jim (not real name) he went through rapid detox program. Now I had no clue what that was until I saw it on TV. Essentially it is a painless process where you go under the mask and are out for several hours. His opinion was the longer the better up to about 8 hours or so. This allows you to get your body rid of the junk that is in your body.

Jim talks about the process in good and positive terms. He was thrilled with the process. The ability to overcome the physical addiction was great. He still needed help and counseling to stay off the drugs, drugs are also psychologically addicting. Most people need the help of others to stay off the drugs even though the body does not need them. Jim called me and asked me to help, which I did, as an accountability partner. Which really shocked me as I never did drugs. He called me every single day sometimes twice. He knew I was no nonsense and would not accept the least amount of thought on drugs. I am glad to say that Jim has been drug free for over a year. Jim really credits the rapid detox that helped him kick start his road to recovery.

Getting Free History Classes

One of the great thing about MP3 players is the ability to listen to college classes via podcasts.

U.C. Berkley has some of the best classes avalible for you to listen to. There have been American History, Roman History, Ancient History, Geography, and of course Econ. So many classes in many ways so little time. It takes two days for me to listen to one class. Still worth the ability to recieve knoweldge.

Well I hope that you have a great day and go listen to some history.

Reading Hard Things.

At one point I went to this old house that was at one time owned by someone sort of famous. This was all part of a class. When we got to this house that over 200 years old, the prof said they had problems doing upkeep with the house becasue of the discount door hardware and other issues that had happened.

Actually that class was a pile of fun. I leanred how to do all kinds of things and I loved going through the old cemtaries. We would try to understand and read what the headstones said. It is was not an easy task.

My Old MGB.

I wonder what it would have been like to have mechanical breakdown insurance on my old MGB. I mean this thing was as reliable as herion addict. I could see it now.

You want to insure a what? That would be like having a car accident and then asking for accident insurance. Oh hold it, wait a second that is what we are doing with health care.

Fanklin said that once the people figured out they could vote themselves a raise the republic would be over.

I am concerend that day has come.
