ozymandias

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not so sure about the former.

--Einstein

I fine myself thinking about this sentence at least once a day, and it never seems to diminish in validity or become cliched in my mind like most things. What does that mean for us if the wisest thing that's been said about us is that we are infinitely stupid?

My professor asked our class to look for something that is similar to the Alien and Sedition Acts that happened here in the US, such that rights were suspended. I already asked him if it was the Patriot Act by George W but he said that wasn't it. Does anyone know what this it?

There are more and more studies showing how smart crows are. Crows could recognize humans faces in multiple studies, they used tools to escape some cages, and now they somehow have a basic understanding of volume in water (they used stones to displace water and raise the water level to get a worm). It seems more and more animals are being discovered to use tools and use some kind of reasoning.

I have an F-150 and I want to know what all I can do with it to run it on anything but gas. I would like to convert it to some hybrid of electric and biofuel. If anyone has any sites or ideas, put em down.

Christianity - The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove a curse he placed on you himself from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

We currently have more information available to us than any other humans that have lived on Earth and there is practically an infinite amount of things to do on the internet. What is there to do on the internet, I'm bored out of my mind.

We are currently going through a time as bad if not worse than the great depression, the environment is coming closer and closer to collapsing everyday and we are still at war!!! How is it that no one can talk about anything except the white/black child molester who is finally no longer burdening this world?

Has anyone gone to an ivy league school and thought is was definitely not worth all that freakin' money?

Since the rise of civilization humans have been set on destroying or controlling anything and everything that exists, just so they can push through their own delusional ideas about how things should be run. How can the natural balance of power be so one sided in favor of humans and how can such things be allowed to continue to scar the face of the planet?

I am looking to buy hearing protection and I need to know what the dB of firearms are, both handguns and rifles, from .22 to .50 and everything in between.

What is the best second language to learn? Any language in the world.

As far as I know, the two most popular explanations for the "beginning" of the Universe are The Big Bang and God. But these both assume that the universe ever began. I agree that there was a big bang but I don't think that it was the beginning. But rather just another step in a infinite cycle. I think all matter is in a single point for an instant and then as soon as all matter focuses on that one point, all energy(along with matter)is forced to expand with such an incredible force that it pushes the matter an unbelievable distance. Then over time the effects of gravity slowly cause the matter to become focused into points like black holes. And then eventually goes back to the one point and starts over again. It is obviously more complex then that but I think it is just a cycle. Right now, I think we are in a very early(comparatively) stage of the cycle and that is eventually what will happen. What do you think?

They condemn people because they believe in multiple gods yet their ONE god is actually THREE gods. And one is a ghost, one is an invisible man, and the last is a man-god. Yet there is only one true god?

I have 512kbps internet, which I imagine isn't fast enough to enjoy Xbox live, and I want to know the speed you recommend for Xbox live. By the way I'm getting a wireless network adapter to use the internet, otherwise I would need about 60 ft of Ethernet cable. I mainly plan on using the internet to download stuff for the games I have, not play on Xbox Live Gold.

What's the song by smash mouth with the lyrics "I get knocked down, I get up again". And I mean the actual name.

Is anyone watching Family Guy on Fox right now? What was that song that Peter asked the band to play at that old guys house.
