Voices From Above

Just a quickie, as I'm hosting "Jonathan Night" tonight. I usually see prayer as a wonderful tool for self-affirmation, because I believe everything has been set from the beginning, so there's no chance to change the course of events. ( You're getting the 10 minute oil-change version of my religion, please bear with me. ) Maybe I should look at it as more of a "Butterfly Effect", because ripples in the water do run into other ripples and can add up to great waves. Because when you ask for a sign, and it comes, it's a great f'ing feeling. ( Unless of course you're asking for the sign of something bad, like your doom. Then the feeling is probably not so great. ) Maybe I should try this stuff more often.

Oh, on an unrelated topic, Jonathan just introduced me to "SurvivorMan", a new show on the Science channel. A survivalist gets dumped in a new hostile environment every week, and must survive for seven days. But he gets no food, no water, no camera crew, no matches, nothing. He has to manage his own cameras, find his own food, everything. Pretty interesting stuff. One week he'll be in the jungles of Costa Rica, the next he's be on top of the Rocky mountains in Canada. If you get the Science channel, I'd definitely give it a whirl.

Well, time to rejoin the fun. Next up on the watch list is The Transporter.
