Apparently there’s a new Buddha afoot, but don’t worry, he won’t be ready for about 6 years….

Sweet. So watch out world, in 6 years we will have a new Buddha…of course, now he will be called Ram. I wonder if he’ll reach enlightenment while still alive and cease to exist….I also wonder what his thoughts on Christ will be once he’s reached enlightenment.

Walmart has apparently started selling $10,000 yellow 1.75ct diamonds on its website….

Huh…wonder if yellow is coming back. The irony is, the yellow is really an imperfection in the diamond itself…I personally wouldn’t want to look at a diamond and think someone had pee’d on it…. I prefer clean, clear white diamonds myself.

The point is, who would buy anything this expen$ive from Walmart, of all places?! Did that smiley face go through the jewelry store and mark down the 1.75ct fancy-yellow diamonds?! At least its not as nice as it could be…for this price (from Walmart), I’d expect at least an SI1…

I would like to get comments from my tiny little readership (hmm, I wonder if I’m the only reader of my blog…perhaps I should advertise).

Have you noticed that God designed men and women to be a fairly humorous joke on each other?

For instance…as many I am sure have pointed out….

Men expect their women to stay exactly the same as when they first met them.
Women expect their men to change, if not expect to change their men.

The punchline is….
Men never really change.
Women change constantly.

God definitely has a sense of humor. :o) I’m just wondering who’s actually laughing….we know its not men, and we know its not women….

Oh forebode do we pretend
That in the evening we’re just friends;
But during light’s reflected beauty
Truth be told our every duty
Will one day be set aright
Of true love gained in the night.

How untethered we do think
Our actions lie there in the sink.
Truth be told the heart does wrench,
And suffer much egregiousness.
For in the end there’s nothing said,
Nothing gained, and nothing lost…
truly indifference bares a cost!

Oh heart of mine where do you lie?
In a heaven in the sky?
Or are you really underground,
In a tomb not to be found?
When will Wisdom set you free
And help end this misery?

For now the heart begins to fade,
And takes on a pale shade.
The sadness cuts apart the air,
And rips at that no longer there.
But true to hope and love once more,
We shall see what was before.

So there’s an email going around that says Denzel Washington donated enough money to build a new Fisher House when he traveled to Brooke Army Medical Center. Well, I had to look it up on Snopes, and it turns out its somewhat true, but he didn’t donate that much money. Either way, Denzel has always been one of my favorites (He’s the Sidney Poitier of our generation).

Kudos Denzel, keep up the good work. Why is it that really good actors never give their opinions about how the government is running its business, but mediocre or has-beens (and even never-will-bes) like to spew their opinions as if we give a rat’s a$$?! :o)

The email’s main premise is that this wasn’t advertised in any newspapers. Of course, it did happen in 2004…

Apparently the big house builders are skeptical of the housing market…

Well, this will be interesting. Since its so widely reported, will this start to drive housing prices and demand down, or will it plateau and reverse slowly? We’ll have to wait and see what happens.

An unruly homosexual mob demonstrated without a permit against a church in Boston during its Love Won Out conference. The Boston Police did nothing to clear up the crowd. They did keep participants at the conference from leaving until the mob went away. How ridiculous is this?!

IBM has created a new chip to slow down light. The photonic silicon waveguide slows down light to approx. 620 Mph, relatively slow compared with its normal 186,000 Mph. This will help pave the way for optical computing, which should be hitting the shelves sometime in 2007 (according to Luxtera).

Ah, who didn’t think of this years ago? Well, one day my brain and the world will unite to come up with a new idea. Perhaps it will involve lottery number analysis or trading…but some day…I’ll create something great (who knows, maybe it’ll just be kids…and kids are the greatest thing since sliced bread).

Gail O’Toole did some unspeakable things to her ex-boyfriend, Ken Slaby that should shock you (yes, they sound like porn names, but they’re real people).

Wow! Remind me never to fall asleep at an ex-girlfriend’s house. I feel really bad for the woman Slaby is dating; inferably he must have cheated on her to be in a position to have his body parts glued to himself, let alone to fall asleep over at his ex-girlfriend’s apartment. Apparently O’Toole had been planning this revenge for quite some time. Of course, O’Toole says that this is their standard sexual behavior; all I know is that I don’t know anyone who gets turned-on by having their a$$ crack glued together. And I know alot of freaks. Yet another case where chastity, and leaving at a reasonable hour, would have prevented such antics.
