I was reading today on Quoted and came across something interesting. I read this quote: "In other news, I hear that teaching the Theory of Gravity in school has gotta be accompanied by the Theory of Intelligent Falling, which says that things fall because God pushes them down. Gotta give our kids a balanced view, you know." and it got me to thinking. If, according to Intelligent Falling, things fall down because god (I don't believe in capital G's) pushes them down, and god has a plan for everyone, then we sent that poor old man an ambulance (and later a coroner) after falling 3 stories off of his roof because god felt pushy...asshole. He's a 5-year-old and humanity is his little brother. Does that also mean that, since I don't believe in god, if I jump off a skyscraper I'll float? Ooooh...Matrix-y. Unfortunately, I believe more firmly in gravity, so I don't see any "leaps of faith" in my future.

A couple of days ago, in a fit of stupidity, I actually clicked on one of those "hit the mailbox (or score a goal, or shoot the duck, or hit the monkey...take your pick) and win a FREE X-Box 360!". Yeah, should have known better, but like I said, it was a fit of stupidity. While filling out the "survey" however, I saw something that picqued my interest. A website for locating single christians, I guess for the purpose of dating. I can just see those biographies: My name is Tiffany, and I'm a chrisitan. When I'm not busy being chaste and coy, I shun others who are different and try to force my dogmatic beliefs onto others. I'm looking for someone who is the total opposite of me so I can ridicule you, making me feel totally superior and better about myself, while trying to convert you to my way of thinking. Sounds like a real winner.

Hmmmm...my thoughts are kind of rambling around in my head. Can't seem to focus on any one thing to write about. Oh well, must be lack of sleep. Just got off work. Damn graveyard shift. Heh. When I was little, I used to think that when someone said they worked the graveyard shift that they actually worked at a graveyard. I was disappointed, however, my first graveyard shift, at the total lack of corpses and headstones and the abundance of complete idiots. I was looking forward to seeing zombies pop up out of the ground and start dancing (a la "Thriller") but instead it was Night of the Brain Dead. Whoopee.

Well, I'm gonna stop for now. Might have something a bit more chuckle-worthy later on. Then again, probably not. Till then, take care!
