Yo, Check this out.

You asked for conterversial topics, here you go.

Could this happen to your child? Your brother? Your friend?

Could it? You tell me?

Is this a joke?

Hmmm... Badatz Cholov Yisroel and Lubavitch Shechita in Uganda???

Recap

Dear readers, or lack thereof.

I've been meaning to write to you for awhile, telling you what i envisioned my blog to be, and what it instead turned out being.

One of the primary arguments against robotics and artificial intelligence is that eventually these man-made creatures will evolve, and begin to act on their own, against what they were programmed to do.

I'll barrow this argument for (actually against) blogging. Why blog? you'll spend time and effort, drafting, rewording, editing, and finally publishing posts to your blog, and sit there expecting something. Some sort of feedback.

I was kinda expecting a tactile blog. Where readers would comment, discuss, argue (same difference?), and leave their opinions of what i have (or don't have) to say. I was hoping my friends can get to know each other(s opinions) here. Instead, my blog is an egocentric alter, the sacrifices being the fruit of my imagination.

Anyway, enough ranting, y'all came here to read insights, so here's one. FireFox's spell check does not contain the word blog, hmmm...

I'll leave you with that...

P.s. have pity on my (creative?) soul and (PLEEEEEEEEEASE) comment!

Crisis.

The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis'. One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger - but recognize the opportunity.

- John Fitzgerald Kennedy

For all my smicha studying buddies.

Isn't this hilarious?

I really like this collar, can you guess who's wearing it?

Corny joke i came up with today.

Q: What do a computer-with-a-cold and a judge have in common?

A: They both say "You've got bail".

I'm going to be successful!

To be successful, you've got to be willing to fail.

-Unknown

I don't know if i was willing, but i definitely failed today.

I do some pro-bono database work for a non-profit (or is it nun-prophet) organization here in Brooklyn.

They upgraded some of their users to Windows Vista yesterday. When i came in this morning they started having trouble with their database (i was doing some work on it), at first i blamed myself, but come to think of it, Microsoft is big enough to shoulder the blame.

Anyway, this was my "failure". For the story of my success check back in a few years.

Liberty

Patriotic? Extreme? What do you think?

There are four boxes to use in the defence of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, ammo. Use in that order. Starting now.

Before you correct Anonymous, defence is spelled corretly.

Hmmm...

"Modesty is the art of drawing attention to whatever it is you are being humble about."

Is this what they teach in Bais Rivkah?

My 2nd post

Please ignore the title of this post. Eventually i will get over the fact that i have blog and i'll stop making a big deal out of it. My friends are all hedging bets as to how long this blagggggggh (thats blog in afrikaans) will last. Hope this post hasn't lost anyone too much $$$.

Anyway, welcome back. I have so much to write about, everything from finding a tube of lube on my bedroom desk (it was actually a bottle, and NO, its NOT mine), to my upcoming trip to florida.

Lets talk about that trip for a minute. I decided to get away from NY (and my boss) and go to FL for the first weekend of Chanukah. I'm very lucky. The day after i booked my tickets my boss tells me he's going to be in FL too.

Let me tell you about my co-worker J. (Name has been changed to protect her privacy), she is always reading magazines at work. When she was discussing Paris Hilton (people magazine) with a M. (a different co-worker) and i reminded her that reading magazines is not part of her job description, she threw a $|-|17|=17 (thats 13375|>33|< for S***fit). welcome to my job. Ironically, i'm typing this from work.

Which reminds me, GTG...

Hello

Thanks for visiting my blog.

This is my first posting, so please excuse my inexperience. In case you are wondering, I have always had this dream of writing a book, a book of little insights, epiphanies or nuggets of life's experiences. I came up with the name, Life In 365 Nutshells, One Nutshell for every day of the year. I decided to add a twist (or spoonerism) to my book title, and that's how i came up with the name for my blog.

At the moment, my mind is blank, i have no insight to share, no mindJuice to spare. But i can definitely tell you that writing your first blog post at work with a blank mind is not a good idea.

I guess I'm supposed to introduce myself, so hello, hi, this is me.

Now I'm going to go email all my friends, to brag about my blog.

Note to self: Reality check, everyone and their mother has a blog these days.
