So, radio waves I have heard travel forever. Once a signal has been emitted it travels through our atmosphere and into the depths of space forever to be received by anything that has the capacity to do so. Light, I have heard, is basically the same. However, it is argued that light travels in not only waves but as particles, too: namely "quarks."Now, since these things travel on-and-on into

A good read if you get a couple of minutes. Inventing Our Evolution.The following site's "media" section is a true find for me. www.futurehi.netHaving read a few of Terence McKenna's (R.I.P.) books( The Archaic Revival ; Food of The Gods ; The Invisible Landscape ) which happen to be most excellent reads by the way, I have been a long time fan of the exploration of the 99.99999% UNexplored

It seems as if the majority of the people visiting my blog here lately are out for a google search of "Darth Tater"... I believe my previous post "Dark Tater" is the cause of my recent influx of visitors, but I am nonetheless happy that my page is getting so much attention.Anyway, if you are looking for "Dark Tater" or "Darth Tater" or even the actual "Darth Vader" (you owe me a thanks for the

I have recently picked up a 128Mb MP3 player. I was unaware of the magnificence of being able to tote around tunes on a small DIvice that is at your fingertips waiting to be plugged into the next inviting USB port. Yeah, 128Mb isn't very much but it's about 3 album's worth of tunes. Seeing as how my commute to just about anywhere I go these days takes less than 20 mins. I'm resisting the

Welcome to my new blog.Oh yeah, I've already got one. Almost forgot.As you may have noticed, it's been a while since I've said much of anything. This seems to be a bit of a phase that I'm currently going through. Not sure what one would call this phase, but being in one is definitely the case. Things are kind of a "muted" weird.I believe it has to do with several things that have been on my mind

No charges? I don't understand how the tax payers of Georgia can let this stand. All of the resources that went into looking for Jennifer Wilbanks I'm sure add up to be a tremendous amount of man/woman hours=money that tax payers are going to have to foot. Having never married, I can try to understand the concept of "cold feet" before one "ties the knot," but to lie about it to her family and

Well, let's just say there were a few awards given out at the Dogwood Cardboard Regatta. The race consisted of each boat going for time instead of all the boats being dumped in the water and going head-to-head. This served two purposes.First, we only had 6 entries that participated in the race. (I do say "only", now but I am kind of appreciative that we didn't have a huge amount of boats. We

This past weekend was one of the most fun times I've had in a long while - despite the cold temperatures (nights - 30's, days -50's). The Dogwood Arts Cardboard Regatta was held this past Sunday afternoon as stated in my previous post. We were hoping for some weather that was suitable for swimming (we were anticipating it) such as the type of day we had when we appeared on Live at Five (video

Looks as if I may have my "5 minutes" this evening. Yeppers, I get to be on Live at Five on WBIR Channel 10. Yesterday, Beth Haynes came to Oak Ridge to interview Tom and I for a piece promoting our Dogwood Arts Festival Cardboard Regatta (2mb PDF). The interview will air on this evening's edition of Live at Five. Obviously, the show begins at 5pm.The interview went well. We've had the boat in a

Well, in an attempt to explain the blogging void I've left this past week, I'll use the excuse that I've been extremely busy with the "festival." This past weekend was entirely devoted to nothing but handing out balloons to kiddies and promoting the credit union.The Dogwood Arts Festival is a big deal in Knoxville and it's kind of cool to be involved and have a chance to spend time outdoors.

When's the last time you saw a dead bird?Yes, a very weird and morbid question I admit, but seriously think about it. With the hundreds of thousands of birds within a short radius of most urban areas, why don't we happen upon these carcasses more often? I understand that there are probably just as many other animals out there waiting for the ripe opportunity to nab a quick McFlappy Meal© but are

This is the antibiotic I had to take while I suffered from the third nip. I took this picture a couple of hours ago. I thought the blue contrasted well with the red capsules.I added the name and the dosage cause I thought it looked pretty cool.

As misterorange reports here, an independent cinema in Springfield, MO is auctioning off the naming rights to their lobby concessions stand. You can bid on those rights here and perhaps get the chance to name a bar after yourself, the company you work for, or just something whitty you may have up a sleeve.Now this gets me excited! Knoxville at one time had a theater called "Cinema Grill"where you

This was taken atop the Natchez Trace Bridge just south of Nashville.
