Science and stuff.

I am ditching two of my kids today... :-) Grandmama is ready for a visit. Grandmama has been fighting off an end of the season case of bronchitis. Poor Grandmama. I am still celebrating the fact that I did not have that battle (so far) this year. HOORAY! I am looking forward to the time off. I can surely get a book or two read in the coming days. I am such a nerd.

I spent the morning with Ma watching a Discovery show about the newly found Gospels of Judas. Very interesting. I am very intrigued by all this religious stuff. I am dumbfounded at how certain texts are easily discarded by churches. What's up with that? Why do some make it and some don't? Weird. If the texts do not fit their ideal of what things are supposed to be like, well... we simply discard those. Trash. On to the next historic writings to be discovered in some obscure cave. It is also very noteworthy that any text that ever gave the common man any connection to God directly, rather than through a church, got cut SUPER QUICK. I wonder if that could be because it threatens the power of the church? Actually, no- I don't wonder about that... I see it for EXACTLY what it is.

The discovery shows really baffle me. I am completely unable to believe that we have this information and instead of it being news, it is simply put into documentary format and sold as entertainment. HUH? I think I could have been far more educated in science through the new TV programs than any of the boring crap they taught at school. I find myself completely enthralled in everything from space, military intelligence, biology related things, lost H-bombs, black holes and even Einstein's theories. Good grief- and I hated science!

Yep, I am getting to be an old nerd.

Did any of you catch the show about the lost H bomb in the ocean right off of Savanna Georgia? Sheesh. That is a bit worrisome isn't it? 100 times more powerful than the bomb used on Hiroshima... lost. Well, that will certainly make for an interesting dinner conversation. RB and I have certainly got lots to chat about during dull moments in life.

I have kids to ready for travel, a bed to make, and I need my shower. I guess that means I better get going.

Have a good day and try not to be blown up by any lost H bombs:-)
