Thinking of Hard

Now that we have problems with AIG going into BK we have to question where is a good place for business insurance and well as best term life insurance. BO (Pres. Obama) has now been in office nearly 100 days.

this mythical landmark is often a look at how BO has done and will do.

Looking at what he has done is simple. Nothing. There is only promise of doing something. BO has tried to fix many things and yet all there are is problems. No solutions just problems.

Have a most happy day.

The American System

While there seems to be a sale of America to the world, America is still trying to pump along.

Howie is pushing hard with a new and funny video.



You have to love these things. Howie is always funny and making jokes about all kinds of odd things. This is how America moves along. People do what they do best and making the economic system move along.

So for Howie doing his part.



This bud is for you!

Have a great night.

The Truth Project, Science, Critique

This is a review and a look at the fifth part of The Truth Project. This section is on science.

I have delayed writing this for several reasons. The first and foremost is that the truth project is frustrating me.

Del Tackett thesis is G-d made the universe and bad people try to say that it is not true. Do not listen to the bad people.

Once again Tackett moves into the us verses them arguments. What is true? Well a person who is philosophically minded will have one answer whereas the (evil music here) atheistic god hating scientist has a differing view.

This is where Tackett really runs into problems. He brings up philosophical naturalism. We use philosophy to understand reality. When we use philosophy we have to come the realization that something bigger then myself exists out there in the world. This thing made everything we see. Why do we say this? Because it would be silly say that I found this item and I came to the conclusion that given billions of years and rain and weather gave me this rock.




Of course it would be silly assume that this item, an arrowhead, just sprung into existence. Of course it was man made.

Therefore . . . how silly is it to assume that the next item is just sprung through a pattern of random factories.



After all a giraffe has a complex set vessels that go with the long neck so the head does not pop when it bends down for the drink. Here are some problems with the giraffe.



Which came first?
The long neck or the long legs? Both are needed for balance
The long neck or the long tongue?
The long tongue or the dark tongue?
The complex circulatory system or the long neck?

To give the thousands of generations that would be required to have the long neck to get to the high trees it would have starved. The first long neck giraffe would have popped its head at the first drink.


Philosophical naturalism can answer these question easily. However, Scientific naturalism cannot answer these questions.

Scientific naturalism is that we can only comment on what we can see and observe. This is most of science. Hence, science only concerns itself with what is, not what maybe.

Tackett’s other big idea is that Darwin has influenced everything. To this I agree. Darwin has influenced just about every field of study. Is this bad? Maybe, maybe not. However, there are questions by some about ditching Darwin because of the problems with Darwin.

The largest hole in Tackett’s approach is that all he says is evolution is wrong. Not so much why creation is right. Not to mention, Tackett never give scientific proof for his reasons, on a section of science.

In conclusion: Tackett again messes up with philosophical and scientific naturalism by overlapping the two. Second, the us against them is everywhere. Lastly, he does nothing to prove from a scientific basis that evolution is wrong.

The Greatest Day of the Year

There are many good days in the year. However, today is the best day of the year. Not because I found the best diet pill out there.

Today is Opening Day for Baseball.



today is the future, we all know that we can accomplish everything.

We can all go to the World Series.

Ahhh baseball is back.

Why is there snow on the ground here? Hey where is Al Gore? I have a complaint.

Today is the first day.

Looking to the Future

I have recently been looking at upgrading my resume with more education. In bad economic times it is always a good idea to upgrade with some more education. One place that I am looking at has a whole range of options from Project Management certificate to Teacher assistant.

In my mind any of type of certificate will help you in the future.

As an example: you may have been in consturction for a number of years and you are looking to upgrade and move up. Getting education on construction management will greatly help your future.

This applies to most any field. These are certificates not degrees. A certificate will give you specialized skills that are specific with nothing extra. Always a good deal in me book.

Have a happy day.

The Line

Based on where I work, we have had a lot of people with disability insurance who have had to use it. I am amazed at how nice it is for most people who need it.

OF course there are so many ins and outs of the whole process. The process, for those who have gone through it seems huge.

OF course it is still better then some of the other 'free' (not so free) government programs. Question for those of you who wish to have free health care. At what level or at what time that you interfaced with the government at any level you thought it was a good idea? You thought, these guys are great. Every single time I have to deal with them . . . I am gritting my teeth.
