Me and the crew just finished up packaging up nearly 11,000 meals worth of food for needy families.

I think I'm going to make this a regular thing.

That's awesome CD!  I've always enjoyed doing things like this.  Once a month we make up goodie bags filled with toilet paper, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, soap, bottled water and $10 and take them to the homeless in downtown Detroit.  We also bring a small bag of dog food if we see any street dogs.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.

Great

If more people did such things we could end hunger and homelessness in this country.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Feeling lonely. Sorry.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Just learned about the Library of Babel.. O_o If you're like I was and have no clue of its existence, apparently it's a virtual library that contains every possible combination of words, including everything I've just typed and will type in this post... before I've even finished it. Before I've even decided on the words to use. Evn of their is a typo. And the words have a perminent page, in a perminent book, in a perminent volume, on a perminent shelf, in a perminent room.

Thing is, the creator tells of the algorithm he used to create the website, but how could we know the difference between that and just a site that catalogues the passage search and spits out a page number? Every word and non-word exists in every possible combination...but you have to search for it specifically to find it; does that really count?

Is there a way to somehow test this?
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

The girl I mentioned here: http://atheistforums.org/thread-36273-po...pid1058510

Came over. And we spent, no joke, seven hours (12:30 - 7:30) talking. And it was just great. Tons of laughing. Felt like maybe an hour went by.

Just the best day.
