Which school grade should you be in?

To all you smartipants out there: Take this test...

Drum skills - Mr Tony Royster Jr.

Wow! Such style, and elegance. And while watching this video, all I could think about was when I will get my own drum set. I have wanted one for so long, it it has been many years since I played drums (I only ever had one live performance).

Well, what do I spend my money on? I wish it could be on musical gear. But an airconditioner is more important. But if there is money left over... My daughter will certainly enjoy the move up to a proper drum set. But alas, my wife will not be impressed with the two of us. Will be fun, though. For a grand I can purchase a fair quality set, and with a metronome, teach my daughter how to keep proper time. And then jam, her on drums, me on bass. That will be so much fun.

Over 500 Scientists sign statement sceptical of evolution

Interesting article found at PhilBaker.net.

Personally, I do not believe in evolution. We have been beautifully created in the image of God, to fellowship with God. But due to our free choice, we can choose not to.

I also think that the whole issue of evolution / creative design, like many other issues, just detract from the real issue: That Jesus came to earth as God incarnate, and if we believe in Him, we can have eternal life.

I think that this is such a simple truth, that many clever people just can not comprehend it.

How to have a good day

Work hard for a week, and have your boss compliment you on your work.

Succeed in contacting a friend in need. Have the Holy Spirit impart wisdom into the friend's situation, and have the privilege of being part of the reassurance process.

Have your boss specify new work requirements for a deadline immediately after the long weekend. Look forward to finishing the work, and do the work with gusto.

So now I am still busy with all of this work, but slowly I am making a dent in the mountain.

Nearly forgot: Look forward to going home, and spending time with your family.

So there you have it, my day on Friday 3 March 2006.

Enhance your flight simulator visual experience

Have a look at these Zenview Screen setups from Digital Tigers. My favourite is the Powerscape Ultra HD - drool. I think I really need an unlimited budget. And if you are wondering how on earth you'll drive these beasts, Digital Tigers recommend systems, and also sell systems specifically geared to your viewing needs.
