John Oates from Hall & Oates to get his own cartoon!

Oh man, gotta love morning radio for bringing this to my attention. John Oates from Hall & Oates fame will get his own cartoon! From the billboard article, “Oates is portrayed as a modern-day family man and finds himself enticed back to the rock star life by his mustache, which is voiced by comedian Dave Attell”. The show is currently titled as “J-stache”. This is great! Hahaha.

Damn gas prices

I just filled up my car this morning and it cost me $69 to fill up 16.6 gallons on my 1996 Ford Explorer. The gas was $4.139 a gallon. Sheesh.

On the way home, I saw a car with those ridiculously sized wheels. You know, the 24 inch rims, that makes the car look silly. But then I was thinking, what mileage does he get with those wheels? The wheels are larger than the standard wheel size. Even though they do it for style, maybe they are getting an added benefit without even thinking about it. I wonder how 30 inch rims would look like on my Explorer =)

There’s Ice on Mars!!!

I have ice in my freeze. Wait a minute! What’s more useful, ice in my freezer or on Mars. Well I can’t get to Mars with the mileage I get out of my Ford Explorer, and the ice in my freezer I can use now, so I guess the Mars’ ice amounts to …. nothing.

=-)

Kidding! Before all you science geeks come after me with pitchforks and Bunsen burners, I was kidding. Joke. Anyways. The significance of the ice is tremendous. Where there’s water, there’s possibly life, or what may have been life at some point in Martian history. There’s a possibility that microbes can still exist on Mars now, and could be living.

Translation, we could find life on a world, other than our own, still alive! Maybe the organisms have been active all this time. We don’t know yet, and I’m sure it’ll be awhile before we do. This is definitely great news.

I’ve installed WordPress

I finally decided to go with WordPress for now on my site. I just want to have the blog up and running now, rather than later with a custom solution.

I’ll definitely hack up the design shortly. I’ve got enough experience from working on christianlivingministry.com to hack up the templates to make the site no longer look like a wordpress site.
