05/20/2012 I am angry at the Beatles

I realized, after reading a news article about the Beatles’ children joining together for a concert, that I am angry at the Beatles.  The Beatles, who sang songs with titles like, “All You Need is Love, ” “Come Together,” “Let It Be”… Lennon’s “All we are saying, is give peace a chance.”

These same people got into a feud over 30 years ago that is affecting the relationships of their children…

I am angry at the Beatles because if they, of all people, can not make peace amongst themselves, where is the hope for the rest of us…

04/05/2012 People vs. Mrs. Smith

I wonder why I have never heard about a company being sued for murder… Think about this:

Everyday in the morning when Mrs. Smith made her husband John’s coffee, she added her own secret ingredient… a dash or arsenic, for flavor enhancement.  Over time John develops: headaches, confusion, severe diarrhea, and drowsiness.  As the years go on and John grows older his health deteriorates.  He developes chronic diarrhea, vomits often, has blood in this urine, cramping muscles, hair loss, stomach pain, and convulsions.   Eventually  John’s lungs, kidneys, and liver begin to massively fail and after 10 years of Mrs. Smith adding her special ingredient, John slips into a coma and dies at 54.  Did Mrs. Smith commit murder?  Yes or no.  Why?  Would your answer be different if John died after 15 years?  Twenty years?  What penalty does she serve if any?

If Mrs. Smith was actually Mrs. Smith Coffee CO. INC.  would you think differently?  Why or why not?

I wonder if math, as we know it, would be completely different if people had four fingers on each hand instead of five.

03/04/2012 Somebody Everybody

Seems like the difference between somebody and everybody is that somebody does something while everybody thinks about doing something that will make them a somebody, someday.
