Pew says less people in Pews

An American think tank called the Pew Charitable Trust recently surveyed young adults and found that less people now believe in God. God damn it. Yes the very idea that has held together so many civilizations through their opinions and bloody skirmishes about the definition of and miracles from. Now this disturbing trend definitely puts a spotlight on the need to find an alternative skirmish worthy topic. C'mon citizens start thinking! Are you certain that there is no God? What has led you to come to this ghastly conclusion? Too many of his children are getting the finger? No food, only war. Financial wealth evaporating? Gas at $4 per gallon? Only nincompoops in congress and other elected governments around the world? C'mon think..that cannot be all bad? The Tsunami after all was only restricted to Japan. Could have been worse folks. Someone is watching. Lets pray that this is not happening. We need an outlet to be the fall back when all blame fails. 'It was God's wish' will now become outdated. That should not be allowed to happen. People now have to tax their already dessicated brains for another solid excuse. What would replace terms like godforsaken? And who better to check in with when earlier 'God only knew'? This is an all out disaster. Now people can actually take the Lord's name in vain and it will mean nothing - it would be like saying damn it Peter or Ganesh. C'mon lord - time to buckle up and show these cretins a thing or two. What say you? PS: the only good to come out of this research means that there is now wide acceptance of the idea to call people at UNGODLY hours which is all hours of the day (or night). Which actually is a conundrum since even when people believed in god they also believed that hours could be ungodly?

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

Gab about Gaps

There are a number of news stories these days where conversation inevitably turns to discussing some sort of GAP - Gap between rich and poor is growing Gap is losing market share to other clothiers The Dow is Gapping Down (so is the NASDAQ) and the dollar is Gapping Up The guy who advised British public over the PA on dangers of tube travel with the phrase 'MIND THE GAP' has died There is a frightening Gap between our Debts and Savings Gap between Executive pay and Average worker salary is at an all time high All I am doing is listening to all this unfold with my mouth aGAPe. What me worry?
