Shots Across the Bow

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

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.”
