My New Toys

My fiance calls me a geek.

I can't understand why...

I just bought these slide rules on eBay. And yes, if you're thinking that they were the inspiration for my digital/analog post yesterday, they were. A slide rule is a wonderful example of an analog computer.

It also looks kinda cool swinging from your belt in a holster. Just ask any engineering student from the 60's.

It is the job of government to protect its members from the actions of others. It is not the job of the government to protect its members from their own actions. That's the difference between being a citizen and a subject.

Bible Verse of the Day

“[A Church Divided Over Leaders] I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.”
