Good morning.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Well, I had PBJ\u00a0today because it’s Wednesday<\/a> (normal time Wed\/Fri fast)\u00a0.. Lent doesn’t start for me until Cheesefare on the evening of March 10. \u00a0So … why does the East begin Lent on a Monday and the West on a Wednesday and both count 40 days to Pascha\/Easter. Well, because the West doesn’t count Sundays as part of Lent but the East does … but the East doesn’t count Holy week as part of Lent. Got it? What I forget is whether the East includes Lazarus Saturday (before Palm Sunday) as part of Lent or not … and one might note that the Lenten\u00a0fast <\/em>for the Orthodox continues (of course) through Holy Week.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Fer\u00a0the Ms Palin fans<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  3. Doctor or not<\/a> … for myself I could not really care less if you call me Mr or Dr (and yes, I do have a PhD thing in Physics)<\/li>\n
  4. That\u00a0Chicago way<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  5. Awe\u00a0noted<\/a>. Hmm, anything like the Psalmist noted the fear of God as the beginning of wisdom? How much modern man has learned, eh?<\/li>\n
  6. Fear or\u00a0the lack thereof<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  7. Notes for\u00a0future gang wars<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  8. Shame<\/a> and armor.<\/li>\n
  9. So, why\u00a0on earth does our President<\/a> think the “middle class” has any relevance to the minimum wage? And that’s an interesting take on min-wage, not as a wage limiter but a productivity minimum.<\/li>\n
  10. Debunking (most of) some silliness around\u00a0the alleged dearth of geniuses<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  11. What you don’t want to see in the morning when\u00a0you go out to your car<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  12. Demographic shifts that\u00a0you don’t hear much about<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  13. So much fun might<\/a> be had coming up with geekish instead of macho handles, so Maverick \u00a0and Goose becomes pocket protector-ized and pencil-necked?<\/li>\n
  14. What will be needed\u00a0for when revolution hits<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  15. Duh<\/a>. Truth to power becomes Stating the obvious to power.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
