Lameness
I tried to reset my password, don’t get an e-mail, and e-mail support like the page tells me to. What does support tell me to do?
Go to the exact same page I was on in the first place.
Very helpful, tumblr, thanks.

Q & A
calvinnhobbes:
Thank you danyulfan and clamhead939 for submitting the ‘Calvin and Bacon’ comics but I’ve posted it couple of days ago here, jewlikeruth beat you to that :-)
For anyone who missed it, there’s also this:

:D
Someone started following me after I submitted http://www.pantsareoverrated.com/2011/05/10 to the Calvin & Hobbes tumblr. :D Best reason to get a follower ever.
Hello new follower!
Things I keep thinking I should blog on:
1) Easter 2) Babies
#2 makes me happy (and I can delve into Jewish tradition, which always pleases me) and is a lot less awkward than #1.
Also in line with the point of...

From: 1/0 May 31, 2002 (http://www.undefined.net/1/0/)
For the sake of fairness (even though my view should be kind of obvious, considering my background… :P) This is what the comic’s creator says:
“What Mock is proposing is known as the Kalam Cosmological Argument, first penned by Islamic scholars in the Middle Ages. Don’t worry, though, it’s far from airtight....
Should the Church be Led by Teachers and Scholars? →
One of my friends on facebook posted this link. Certain portions of this article annoy me a lot. First of all, I’m not sure what Miller means when he says “the government once controlled the church, but that ended when the printing press was invented and people could read the Bible for themselves.” I’m not sure what history books he’s been reading, because, prior to...

Hell
My dad sent me the following article last week:
DURHAM, N.C. — When Chad Holtz lost his old belief in hell, he also lost his job.
The pastor of a rural United Methodist church in North Carolina wrote a note on his Facebook page supporting a new book by Rob Bell, a prominent young evangelical pastor and critic of the traditional view of hell as a place of eternal torment for billions of damned...

Judas
There’s something that’s been bothering me for a while. Actually, there are a lot of things that bother me, but I’ll stick with this one for now.
A couple weeks ago, I bought a copy of 501 Most Notorious Crimes because it was on sale at Borders. So, I’ve been flipping through it (or I was, before I packed it away for the move), and the first entry in the section called...
Judgment Day, eh? →
http://www.wecanknow.com/
There’s nothing I love quite so much as making fun of a bunch of wack jobs. Especially religious wack jobs. Aside from being out of their freaking minds—and having such a laughable logic that even I, with my admittedly unscholarly knowledge of the Bible, can point out every Biblically unsound principle they go by.
Seriously, guys. You just make it too damn...
Why do I have 4 followers but can only see 3?

Happy Toby Day
January 31, 1999: The first entry I made in my first diary, which I called Toby. (After the Animorphs character, of course. :P)
So began 12 years of on-again-off-again journaling/blogging.
This is basically a completely useless post, but I had to commemorate it somehow. Twelve years is a long ass time.
On a totally different topic: My iTunes is trying so hard to dissuade me from hating Apple,...

There is a rabbi in my computer room
Okay, it’s only Baruch. But he is a rabbi, and he is in my computer room as I type this. He’s in Chicago for a funeral, and he’s spending tonight here.
In other news, news that actually relates to the point of this blog: I’ve pretty much decided on an apartment, so I’ve started thinking about various things I want in it… and naturally, I’ve been thinking...

The 50 Most Hated Characters in Literary History →
This list gives me the warm fuzzies. Especially #’s 8 and 18. Actually, a lot of these make me happy.
Is it weird that I love Madam Dufarge from A Tale of Two Cities? Because… I thought she was the most interesting character in the whole book. :P

Happy Channukah
I guess my dad figured out it was Channukah (even though I told him about my most recent RAF name change :P) because he just sent me the following e-mail:

Sholem Aleichem
I went a little book crazy this weekend. I bought three books on Black Friday, and I got three books in the mail from Amazon.
One of the books I bought on Friday, and the books from Amazon? All by Sholem Aleichem.
If you don’t know who he is, I’m ashamed to know you. Well, maybe if you don’t recognize the movie/musical his stories inspired: Fiddler on the Roof.
I’ve been...
Thanksgiving
Holidays at Mom’s are awkward.
Aside from the fact that just about every holiday my sister and I butt heads over something… well.
Holidays with my Evangelical family is hard. Because religion isn’t just a part of their lives—it’s the underlying theme of everything. And I can’t separate myself from prayer when I have to hold hands.
Also, listening to Don pray...

“Isn’t it beautiful? It’s so delicate. Sighhh… once it’s too late, you appreciate...”
– Calvin (via calvinnhobbes)
It really doesn’t.
Calvin: Some people complain all the time! They complain about the least little thing! If something bugs them, they never let go of it! They just go on and on long after anyone else is interested! It's just complain, complain, complain! People who gripe all the time really drive me nuts! You'd think they'd change the subject after a while, but they never do! They just keep griping until you start to wonder, 'What's wrong with this idiot?' But they go on complaining and repeating what they've already said!
Hobbes: Maybe they're not very self aware.
Calvin: Boy, that's another thing that gets on my nerves!
(Sadly... I have had moments like this. : P)
Next Year
Next year for Halloween, I’m going to be that guy from To Kill a Mockingbird who hid his coke bottle in a paper bag, so everyone thought he was drinking whiskey.
I thought of this today when Kyra and I went with her boss, Lisa, and Lisa’s daughters, Tina and Gina for Trick or Treating. XD They’re so cute. :) And apparently find me amusing.
But that is possibly because we were...
