None of the Above

by Marble

Forcrying out loud we have debate about solid scientific models in this country, how can those percieving bias on the other side be considered in any way legitimate? I agree with Machiavelli, perception is reality. But that is only in politics because politics is artifice. It aims at misrepresenting the world. If you take that as the basis of your reality, then of course there is no objective perspective. What then is the point of communication? Solely bending others to your will?

Happy birthday to me: I turned thirty the other day. Yea for me! :)

I decided I must be a grown-up now. So watch out, I will probably be a bit more uh, liberal, with the kinds of things I'll say.

Dang, I'm tired. I stayed up late last night cruising the web for info on mythology and stuff. I started out trying to find out what Hephaistos means in Greek. (I got utterly sidetracked about twenty times)

The closest I got was that it means Ptah, the name of an Egyptian god, but that doesn't quite compute. I want to know what it means in Greek, not what other deity corresponds to him.

Whatever. I think I feel a nap coming on. Then it'll be time to go see Elena before she goes on her big trip with her dad up to Montana. They'll be gone for a month, so I want to have a nice little visit with her tonight. I'm sure going to miss her.
