PB & J Magic!

Sometimes the best food is the simpliest; I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich today that tastes as if the gods themselves created it. As I finished thelast bite of my wonderfully minimalistic sandwich, I took a second to ponder why it is that my discerning palette was so pleased with something as basic as an All-American peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Bacon Baby

Those that deny their love for bacon either did not have the pleasure of sinking their teeth into a grease laden slice, or are so vegan that they wouldn't recognize bacon if it did a dance on their plates. I tried to go without bacon for a year, and in that time it was the only thing I desired. Talk about torture!

Let Your Mind Wander

I love to meditate sometimes. To clear your mind of things that may have been bothering you throughout the day is not only good for your soul, but for your health as well. Today is the first day I incorporated meditation in my daily routine, and I'd have to say that it's wonderful!

WTF Moment of the Day

I can't stand hypocrites! Today, while walking down http://www.mapleridgechrysler.com/>the street, I noticed a woman obviously pregnant holding a small sign that read "Abortion is Wrong!" I asked her why she decided to protest in an area that did not have any clinics in sight, http://www.mapleridge-vw.ca/> and she mentioned that there are people who knew that she aborted her first child on the other side of town. It was a major "WTF" moment, to say the least!

May 12

On this day in 1941 Konrad Zuse presented the Z3, the world's first working programmable, fully automatic computer, in Berlin.  In a sense one could trace this post's genesis to that red-letter day.

In a similar way, the quality of our relationships depends on things we do long before we ever meet that significant other.  If we build our habits and therefore character into a person who acts the way a good husband/wife does, then we're giving ourselves a far better chance of succeeding in marriage.  If, on the other hand, we take on habits and therefore character which is consistent with a poor husband/wife, we're undermining our marriage ahead of time.

Led Zeppelin

Apropos of nothing, Led Zeppelin's song "The Ocean" continues to rock the house.  That is all.

Happy May 5th Everyone!

From wikipedia:

Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "fifth of May") is a holiday that commemorates the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at theBattle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of Mexican General Ignacio Zaragoza SeguĂ­n.[1][2] While not an "obligatory federal holiday" in Mexico, it is celebrated primarily in the state of Puebla, and in the United States.[3][4]

Cinco de Mayo is not "an obligatory federal holiday" in Mexico, but rather a holiday that can be observed voluntarily.[5][6] While Cinco de Mayo has limited significance nationwide in Mexico, the date is observed in the United States (also voluntarily) and other locations around the world as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride.[7] Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day,[8] which actually is September 16,[9] the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico.[10]
