Robot Spiders UnAssociated Press December 22, 2017 This video was recently obtained by the UnAssociated Press, and clearly shows that the Earth is being invaded by Robot Spiders from outer space. Some scientists claim that there is little danger at present, because the spiders seem to only eat AA batteries. If you see one of these monsters, simply pick it up and slide the on/off switch to the "off" position. It could save your life.

I went on the tour of the Alexander Ramsey House yesterday, and it was great. I would have posted photos if I could, but photography is not allowed inside the house. http://www.mnhs.org/ramseyhouse

This morning I told my wife and son that Mr. Rogers ' Sweater is at the Minnesota History Museum for the 1968 exhibit (opening Dec. 23). My 5-year-old son said, "What? The Packers ???"

If you read my blog last month, I had a lengthy issue involving my Sprint Phone . Basically they changed my plan without my consent and started charging me more. After the lengthy and frustrating process to put everything back the way it was, it happened all over again yesterday. Sprint , you suck! Update: And yet again, after another month went by Sprint "lost" my MERSC discount and so the price went up again and I have to reapply. Are all phone companies so crooked? The reviews by the public say, "yes."

While it may be good to expose abuses and "call out" those responsible, we should never forget that it is "Due Process" that is supposed to be the foundation of our legal system. That means allegations should be substantiated prior to passing judgment.

Santa Accused of Sexual Misconduct UnAssociated Press December 4, 2017 Several women who wish to remain anonymous have recently come forward (though not public) to accuse Santa Clause of inappropriate sexual behavior. The allegations include coming down chimneys while they were asleep and sneaking around inside of their houses. There has also been allegations that he touched some women inappropriately during the taking of photos. Though the jolly old elf has denied these allegation and though there is no substantial proof, Santa has been fired and Christmas will be cancelled and replaced with a new holiday yet to be named.

WARNING: I went to see the movie IT , and "it" has nothing to do with IT (Information Technology) !

With political views that do not follow any party lines, I can at times, get people upset with me who are on the far right (conservative) or far left (liberal) end of the spectrum in equal numbers. What I have noticed (though maybe I know more liberals than conservatives), is that liberal people seem to get much angrier over even minute disagreements than conservatives do. I have wondered about that and I might have an answer as to why this happens. It is my opinion that liberal minded issues generally have little hard science or data supporting them, and rely primarily on emotion. Any discussion (or disagreement) should be a process of understanding and using evidence to support your opinion. If there is no actual science, the person using conjecture and emotion is likely to get frustrated and angry. Whether they have science backing them or not, a conservative can often point to the Bible and say, "Look, it's right here. God wrote it."

Alas poor R2D2 . I knew him...

Even though I'm involved with an organization that has the mission to preserve history, that mandate gets kind of blurry when politics are involved. What I mean is, that history seems to reflect the attitudes that are force-fed to the population through the media. This “free media” being the same one that was forced to shutdown a breaking story 14 years ago when I worked for the county and an individual placed into a position to help vulnerable people was arrested and the (political) policies were shown extremely poorly as a result. History, is often a partial truth. Our “politically correct” society has no stomach for the entirety of truth—as it does not fulfill the “popular” misconceptions that we are all supposed to believe. Yet, most people are fine perpetuating these partial truths for the sake of looking good . One other historical fact that is conveniently forgotten as “we” show how accepting we are of all of the lifestyles and hybridized family units, is that most “great ...

I have to think that God has made better decisions as to where my life should go than I would have alone. In other words, often the disappointments evolve into something great.
