And The Word became Flesh

I want you woven into a tapestry of love, in touch with every-thing there is to know of God. Then you will have minds confident and at rest, focused on Christ, Gods great mystery. All the richest treasures of wisdom and knowledge are embedded in that mystery and nowhere else.

The Passing Of Steve Jobs

I was saddened to hear of the passing of Steve Jobs. He really was a marvelous innovator. But I was puzzled by some of the accolades. There where claims he changed the world. But sadly it seems the world is still a complete and utter mess. we are teetering on the brink of social, financial, and ecological disaster. Technology has made great strides forward in the last 50 years. Indeed we have some marvelous gadgets that have the potential to help us make great changes possible but alas we are too busy raping the planet and destroying each other. As long as accumulating money is considered success/wealth we are doomed. I am the 99%. I am debt. I am in bondage calling it freedom. Many are starting to awake and I pray it continues.

Facebook

I have never been a big fan of Facebook but sometimes it can be useful. Yesterday I have a friend from my childhood years in Belleville Ont. Hey Bill good to hear from you! We knew each other as next door neighbours growing up and again as young adults for a short time. It is always interesting to see how the years have played out in the live of the people you have known over the years.

Buying A Tablet

So I decide to pull the trigger and buy a tablet. After a bit of research and trying the Motorola Zoom (it was returned. I decide that the Asus Transformer with the dock is what I am after. A bit more research tells me that they where recently released in the UK and sold out right away. But good news Asus is still going to launch on April 26th in Canada and th US. So I wait..... Launch day comes and I call all the listed suppliers and not one actually has a unit in stock.... hum launch day and no product. So can you really call it a launch day? So I ask all the suppliers when we can expect the units to be available. Not one could answer. And I am told if I want one I need to pay up front and wait 2-3 weeks but no guarantees. Wow that was fun........not!
