Programers Words To Live By

I have added my r?sum? to the site, under random on the right. Currently, I am not looking for a job, but if you have something to offer the best Software Engineer you will ever meet, shoot me an email.

A study has been completed that found that it is possible for aborted fetuses to one day provide eggs to be used for In Vitro Fertilization. This would mean that someone could be a mother without ever having lived! Our abortion laws are based on the belief that the fetus is not alive. I think this is wrong, what miracle happens when you come out of the womb that makes you more alive than you were before, but science has some guidelines for determining when something is alive or not. One of these guidelines is the ability to reproduce. Although it is tragic that these people had to be aborted for the study, maybe their sacrifice will be used to promote the fact that they were alive!

The Great One proves me wrong. There is a good reason to comment on the passing of Ms. Hepburn. The Great One, Jonah Goldberg, pointed out on The Corner we should all compare the picture of Britney Spears and Katharine Hepburn on The Drudge Report. Ms. Spears may have less clothes on, appear younger, be smiling, and in color; but I would take an elegant and beautiful Ms. Hepbourn type any day. In addition, to throw another great woman into the mix with a similar name, I have long believed that one of the most beautiful and elegant women ever is Audrey Hepburn.

I would normally not mark this occasion, but The Today Show informs me ?the world is mourning the death of Ms. Hepburn. The whole world! Does that include all 1 billion Indians? Al- Qaeda? The Children Dying of AIDS in Africa? Me?

Broadway has been decorated. On the streets and in the shops and offices the new flags have been unfurled. There is a gay feeling and rainbows the air. It is that special time of year again in the neighborhood.

Honestly I have no idea how CBS News operated before the girl arrived! The has produced even more excellent work.

I have been stereotyped! I received junk mail from the Christian Seniors Association, which touts itself as “America’s Christian Alternative to AARP!” And I quote from the included “2003 National Survey of Christian Seniors,”

Dear Mr. Tomaw,
We specially selected you to represent the Chicago, IL area in the poll because your past activities indicate that you are a Christian senior American who is well-informed on current issues.

I am Christian, as my activities would indicate.
I am American, as my birth certificate, license, and passport attest.
I am well informed, as my subscriptions and internet usage show.
But I am not a Senior! I am 23 years old! What am I doing wrong?

This is why the Great One is the Great One.

With Sen. Thurmond and Sir Thatcher dead, a third must be coming soon to fulfill the trilogy. Look for an elderly retired political figure to pass within the day.
