So yeah...

... After quitting the public spotlight because of a big visit to a foriegn country, a wedding I had to attend, landing a new (1st) house, dealing with some deep sea fish to catch, getting college plans up and running (slowly but surely)...I'd like to say I'm back in the offices of the EID Net for a good while. But I can't. Why? Because I don't see any reason to make a promise to an unknown audience, really. Sure, I could say I promise to make a least three posts on the blog once a week, and that I'll broadcast an EID Show once a week... but why obligate myself, especially if I don't know you, and It's not like I'm saving your life (well, you could say I'm a lifesaver, if you want).

I'm just sayin',

Anywho! some notes you need...

- Did you read about the Phone lost for 4 days at sea found and then recharged and returned to the Owner? I bet the phone was a Samsung Rugby, the toughest phone out there.

-A meaningful update to the MAC OS (Meaning we're going from OS 10.5.x, to 10.6), that doesn't cost much? Get out! No, friends, It's true, introducing MAC OS Snow Leopard, for only thirty buck, available September '09. Check it out.

-To hearken back to an old EID NetCast, the sixth edition of the UCLA Slang dictionary has just been published. Enjoy, if you can...

Catch ya later.

Oh, also, to my EID blog staff...you're all fired, every last one of you (yes, even you, Caleb). Economy troubles and what not, you know? You might try an filling out an application in the broadcast studios. Don't count on it, though, ya bunch of goons.

Loser. you're too late.

I've just got to rub it in.
Grace Blume is taken, she's mine. you can't have her.

most everyone is a planner, a problem maker, a schemer. what does it get them? stress, headaches...pain. look, you're your own worst enemy. stop. relax. you're not in control. do you really want to be? what is a "big deal" - what does that mean?

no problem, no worries, do your duty, and go on. breathe, relax. stop it. if you don't, all our heads will explode.

India, the melting pot of all cultures

Good day, mate! Or evening, or afternoon, or night, depending on where in this wide world you are. This is to commemorate the EID team on their, and my, trek through India, the melting pot of all cultures. We, obviously, survived. Three cheers and a drink for that, please. Now, for my first blog since my return, the subject is India. Fancy that.

The day we got there, I realized, out of all the countries I have visited in my life, this one was going to be different. That was when two Indians were trying to speak English to each other because they did not speak the same language. India has over 300 different languages complete with their own alphabet. How did that happen? The trick is that every state has different languages, and further languages are made for each cast withing that state. So in the same village, you can speak to your neighbor, but not the guy across the street.

On top of that chaos, there is also the religious relativism. A Christian, a Muslim, and a Hindu can be best friends and be perfectly okay with that. On the other hand, if there is a call to kill your Christian cousin, that is perfectly okay as well, as they have been in North India. We have seen in one instance a church, and temple, and a mosque side by side.
The women there are modest as can be, dressed from head to toe. The men, on the other hand, practically go naked. Many wear a "waisty", a small bed sheet around their waist with a split in the middle so that they can relieve themselves when ever they wish... where ever they wish.

Idol worship has penetrated every facet of living. Sometimes, like when they open up a little drawer to show you a tiny parade of idols and lights with music, that it can be funny, but in a fully functional temple, the laughing stops. The fact that the Christianity there and the Hindu worship were so similar was of no comfort.

The times of Rudyard Kipling is over, for there is very little wildlife left. Now all I say is that it is a very beautiful place at places, but, although I enjoyed myself, I don't think I shall ever return.

I suppose I should say more, but I don't think I will anyway. Now is the time for us to be ever vigilant that we do not fall in the trap of relativism and that God's truth is absolute, that is, is the Bible.

Sea-kittens for dinner!

Green day, everyone, I mean good day. It is time for a news story by me, the hater of sea kittens from the abyss. Unfamiliar with the term? Let me explain... or let me quote, ""Sea kittens" is the new term being used by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, for the creatures they believe are in dire need of an image makeover: fish." What the freeholies? ""Fish not only have the same ability to feel pain as a dog or a cat, but they also communicate with one another," says PETA's Sea-Kitten Representative. "They have complex social interactions; they form bonds; they express affection by gently rubbing against one another." But what the margarita pie are they talking about? PETA has gone way over the limit here. How dare they mess with my fish fry? What am I suppose to call it now, a sea kitten fry? What if I want caviar? Kitten caviar sounds like fetus de feline. Nasty!

And what about Jonah? Was he swallowed by a big sea kitten? That's just wrong on so many levels. And how about renaming them? Cat fish and dog fish would be changed to weirdness.

Me: Where do you want to go to dinner?
Other guy: How about Cat-seakitten king?
Me: That name just sounds wrong.
And dogseakitten is even worse. Swordseakitten sounds like the puss in boots on an off day. This is just wrong, but it's getting support! That is what astounds me; people are actually petitioning with them. I mean, come on people, get your thinking caps on and turn your light bulbs on! (sigh)

"The PETA campaign boasts a colorful, interactive Web site aimed at children and their parents. It offers sea kitten bedtime stories and a design-your-own sea kitten in hopes it will build compassion in families.

"Most parents would never dream of spending a weekend torturing kittens for fun with their families, but hooking a sea kitten through the mouth and dragging her through the water is the same as hooking a kitten through the mouth and dragging her behind your car," Byrne says."
... that's just... wrong. I mean, I torment my dog every day. And I eat cat at the Chinese place in town. What is the matter with these people?
"Byrne says that even if people lose jobs in the fishing industry through the success of the campaign, they could find work in more sea-kitten-friendly environments.

"So as there is less of a demand for foods like fish, there is more of a demand for other foods, and jobs open up in those industries," Byrne says."
What? Can I even find somthing to say to that? Yes! Idiots! Everyone is making money already on the other industries, and if you get people fired, you will answer to God for it, you PEDA on yourself, heartless... Gosh! Ah! (sigh) And besides, no one will care. Red Lobster, Catfish King, Ralf and Kacoos, these restaurants will still be selling to their customers, even if they have to change the word "fish" to "seakitten." I will still eat them until I bulge, and so will the rest of the world. PETA's attempt to make a difference by changing a name is meaningless and worthless. These people get me madder than most of the rest of the world put together. This mentality of "oh look at me, I'm special because I make a difference" is one of witch I have no sympathy with. At least I know I make no difference in this world with my pathetic blog. God, not man, uses things to make differences. And if these guys think that this will be a gold badge on their jackets, let me say that they had better make their own jackets.
"National Marine Fisheries Service management biologist Brian Dixon doesn't see the change coming anytime soon.

"Well, it may raise some money for PETA, but I don't think it'll change the way we manage the fisheries," Dixon says. "I think I may eat some sea kittens tonight.""
As will we all, Mr. Dixon, as will we all. Except, I think I'll torture my dog a little while I eat the sea-kittens, as well as electrocute a neighbors cat. That's always fun.

-Sure, the above post was thrown together by Caleb, but Kevin the seakitten was lovingly designed by Mr. EID himself, Jeffrey.
