Bag of Randomness

  • Bob Costas is 58 years old which kinda surprised me.
  • Cute, and I mean really, really cute sleeping baby photos
  • NYU Business professor schools a prospective MBA student
  • The CIA has a page on the shoe phone
  • Rolling Stone magazine, at least for a while, lost the RollingStone.com URL.
  • Just how deep is the marina trench?
  • What BagOfNothing.com sounds like on Code Organ
  • Olympic venues past, present, and future as seen from space
  • Here’s an article that I’ve been sitting on quite a while, one that several of you have emailed to me.  It’s a piece from the NY Times titled “How Christians Were the Founders?”  Personally, I don’t think it’s a good title for the article, but the article itself is really about the conservative Texas State Board of Education, what they decide to be included in school books, and how their decisions affect a nation for a decade.  Because the state of Texas distributes 48 million textbooks annually and is quite specific in what they want, text book companies tailor their books to meet the state’s needs and those books are sold across the nation.  I think a lot of the article is focused upon this Ralph Reed quote, “I would rather have a thousand school-board members than one president and no school-board members.”  It’s a fascinating read, but I’ll warn you, it’s one heck of a long read.
  • I’ve been on a Jello kick as of late.
  • One thing I’m horrible at remembering to replace . . . my toothbrush.

    My Jello kick was last month. I purchased three boxes to make it myself at the local grocery store and then ended up purchasing three alreay made mold's from Target and ate them (never did make the boxes.)
    I have to purchase a new toothbrush every month.
