Everytime I think the Bush administration hits a new low, all you have to do is wait a few weeks and they manage to amaze me once again with their blatent incompetence and mismanagement. This time it's the news story that a PR specialist appointed by the Bush adminstration to work at NASA decided to declare that the Big Bang was a religious issue and not NASA's place educate the public on scientific theories without letting any crackpot theory get equal attention. I really wonder why scientists across the nation have been complaining Bush has been anti-science the last 5 years... All the fun details are here. The best part is that the post was politicaly appointed to a Bush/Cheny campaign worker, and it "convinently" slipped past that even though it says he graduated from college, he never actually did. It's amazing what sort of strings cronyism can pull in the Republican party isn't it.
How cool would it be to live in a place like this? Shapes just popping out of nowhere, all because of some well placed paint.
Continuing with things I just have to have, how about a $1,300 remote control that quite literally controls just about anything you could possibly imagine. It's never too early for an early Christmas present!
As much as I love my Tivo, it can't quite compare to this monstrosity, a 1 Terrabyte PVR that can record 7 regular and 4 HD channels at the same time. It seems to have quite a problem with overheating though, but the idea is pretty cool. Even with my 140 hour (aka 40 hour of "best quality" capacity) Tivo, I still find myself running out of room sometimes.
