Screedlets

I had a thought-provoking piece on religion and its inevitable path to obscurity but, it seems that the mini-Mac I saved the document on (along with everything else I have developed since last June) crashed and burned and apparently has little chance of recovery.

NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day is one of the coolest photo sites on the web. You can see everything from the 100-kilometer per second jet blowing out of cosmic tornadoes to the dusty concentric shells of the Cat’s Eye Nebula.

My own photo of the day:
I have a personal photoblog that I update daily. Check it out and let me know in the comments section if you like/dislike certain photos: Photo ‘O The Day

Brain Teaser
The beginning of eternity
The end of time and space
