When I examine all the things that engage my mind and imagination, the only conclusion I can draw from it is "No wonder I drank."
Now that the "Japan is sinking into nuclear winter." story is taking it's inevitable place at the bottom of the news cycle, we are focusing on important stuff like startled babies on You Tube. It's a story in which a mother blows her nose in front of her baby, films and uploads it to YOU TUBE, and get's 9 million hits. That's right, 9 million. Meanwhile the Rob Bell PFF download for his controversial new book Love Wins has garnered, wait for it, wait, 260 hits. Apparently there is less interest in the disposition of our immortal souls than a baby making cute faces.
Speaking of Japan, there is some concern about a possible breach in the containment structure at the tsunami damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. Unfortunately this occurred on the same day Duke flamed out to little regarded Arizona in the NCAA basketball championship series, setting a chilling precedent wherein one has to divide attention between serious end of the world stuff, and March Madness.......go Arizona!!!
Meanwhile, we have a Christian author, on a failed anti-gay book promotion tour. What if you hold a gay-bashing event and noone comes? So sad. And in more news on the failed attempts at gay-bashing front, Apple has irked Chuck Colson again by refusing to sell a gay treatment app for the IPhone. What is the world of commerce coming to? I'm sure he'll find a way to label it religious persecution.
