Humm Seems like Fall

I was on the way out to the car this morning with kiddo in arms and it struck me that it 'smelt' or 'felt' like fall was on the way for the first time. We have so much left to do around the house I don't' want to think about having to clean up everything already. Path to finish, sod to lay, garden to harvest, herbs to dry, we're hoping to do some preserves for over the winter and we have a bed to finish staining and moving into our room.

Where does all the time over the summer go.

What's your hurry...

Sheesh - I'm coming home from a client site yesterday, I'm doing just over 100 klicks (you know, not 110 but not 100 notched just over the posted and I have a truck (not the semi pictured, a pickup) riding my bumper... I'm in the left lane passing a semi and have no place else to go and this truck runs up and 'sits there' then when I get past the semi and move over to the right he floors it and zooms up to the next car and sits there - talk about an accident waiting to happen. Come on people do you NOT have anything else to do? Is the time remaining in the life of the sun way shorter than I was led to believe, there just can't be anything that terribly important 100km away from any place much that is that critical that you have to hazard yourself and, more importantly, ME!

Jaw Dropping Discovery

Posted to the Globe and Mail 1 Aug 06 as comment to the article A jaw-dropping discovery in earth's oceans by ANNE MCILROY

I think #24 got it right - that science and religion/spirituality can exist together. There are many people in the world, scientists and priests amongst them, that support this position. Every time I hear about something like this - a 'wow' moment - I'm left to smile. It's a good reminder that we don't and probably never will (or should) understand everything.

Remember that people that are biblical literalists (the creationist in posting #1 for example) - take the bible as literal truth, and can accept no part of it being wrong, because if one part is the rest might be as well - their model 'falls apart'. Other more liberal Christian denominations don't take this position and are involved in deep analysis, contemplation, review, debate and discussion of the bible and the history of the world and it's people when and since it was written. The world began when God said 'let their be light' and there was a big bang...maybe?
