Light Tuesday

Another late evening for me, and there's not much blogging material out there. I found this humorous, though [http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticleNew.asp?xfile=data/theworld/2006/November/theworld_November666.xml&section=theworld] : > A spurned Malaysian woman is taking legal action against her former lover,

Monday Mornin' Eudemon

Light fare today. I went to Casino Royale last night. Good movie, but long. Fully modernized: spy-like use of cell phones; siliconed women; hard-body Bonds; Texas Hold 'Em, not Baccarat; Terrorists, not Kremlin agents; M a female, not male. If I had to do it over, I&

Something for Sunday Morning

> Humility is the safeguard of chastity. In the matter of purity, there is no greater danger than not fearing danger. When a person puts himself in an occasion of sin, saying, "I shall not fall," it is almost an infallible sign that he will fall, and with

The Weekend Eudemon

What do a Michigan State student and an Ohio State student have in common? They both applied to the University of Michigan. With that, you know where I stand on today's game, which arguably has the best "credentials" of all time: big-time rivalry [http://library.

Brews You Can Use

The Friday Eudemon

I'm having a glaucoma test today. It runs in my family, so I'm going to get the disease eventually, but it may have cropped up sooner than later. I have two of the three symptoms. My eye doctor doesn't think I have it yet,

The Thursday Eudemon

Anyone know anything about smoke alarms? The geniuses behind the model building code require smoke alarms to be "hard wired," meaning that they're tied into your electric circuitry. I think it also means that they're linked: if one goes off, they all go off.

Wright

Some good Steven Wright: All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand. I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met. OK, so what's the speed of dark? How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? Support bacteria - they&

The Holiday Eudemon

Happy holidays! Today kicks off the holiday season, at least in Michigan. Working backwards: New Years, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Opening Day. Yup: Today is opening day of deer season in Michigan. Some factories shut down; workers take vacation days; union workers take sick days; Michigan Kennedies call in drunk. It&

The Tuesday Morning Eudemon

Those crazy Wiccans: > The widows of two combat veterans sued the government Monday for not allowing Wiccan symbols on their husbands' military headstones. > The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs allows military families to choose any of 38 authorized headstone images. The list includes commonly recognized symbols
