WifeGeedingand I stopped by Ikea this weekend and I noticed this display toilet. It cracks me up for two reasons. First of all, I think the sign is a bit funny because I can totally imagine someone trying to “use” it. Secondly, the pencils crack me up. I have a feeling that the employees got a little mischievous and dropped the pencils in there to represent something.
Sometimes it pays to blog
A while back a posted about the GoateeSaver. The inventor left a comment and asked if I would like to have a free GoateeSaver. So now it looks like it’s time for me to grow a goatee again.
I think I’ll now blog about Aston Martins, maybe I might get one of those for free.
Bible professor suspended over teachings
Plagued by questions about the divine truth of the Bible, today’s young Christians are doubting their faith as never before, says Peter Enns, professor of Old Testament at Westminster Theological Seminary in Glenside.
But when Enns wrote a book urging wobbly believers to embrace man’s role in shaping the Bible, he plunged the famously conservative seminary into crisis.
Westminster’s board of trustees suspended Enns, 47, from his teaching post in March, and has ordered a four-day hearing to determine if he should be dismissed “for the good of the seminary.”
Some of his supporters are condemning the hearing, due to begin Aug. 25, as a “heresy trial.”
They say the trustees want to harden the school’s national reputation as a fortress of ultra-orthodox Calvinism, and purge perceived “liberals” from the faculty.
In an attempt to be open, honest, and sincere, I have to admit I have haunting concerns about man’s role in shaping the Bible. You may call this a lack of faith, and that may be true, but it’s my honest feelings.
Hopefully one day John 8:32 will ring true for me.
Octopuses given Rubik’s Cubes to find out if they have a favourite tentacle

Scientists believe the intelligent sea creatures have a preferred arm out of eight that they use to feed and investigate with.
