For its part, Adobe would like to portray Flash as some noble gift that it has graciously bestowed upon the world, leading to a utopia of ubiquitous porn clips, time-wasting tower defense games, and artsy “web sites” where you can’t link to anything specific.

What was the 10 billionth song downloaded? “Guess Things Happen That Way” by Johnny Cash.

Ironic.

Seeing some of the people being diligent in small things reminded me of a few verses. Here are some promises for you if you feel under-appreciated at your job:

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. (Col. 3:23)

Your Father who sees in secret will reward you. (Matt. 6:4)

And this one sums up the whole first episode from both perspectives of corporate and blue collar:

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free.

Masters, do the same to them, and stop your threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him. (Eph. 6:5-9)

Today’s the 37th anniversary of Roe v. Wade.

Don’t know these people myself, but was moved by the video.

99 Balloons from Igniter Media on Vimeo.

But some of my favorites were aired only on television, particularly the Disney Sunday Movie. I don’t remember which network aired them, but the show took a two-hour block on Sunday evenings. Sometimes they showed theatrical films; other times, they showcased some made-for-TV movies.

Some of these I consider essential parts of my childhood, and it surprises me many “triggers” I find for them in my life even now. For example, every time I have a breakfast sandwich from McDonalds, I’m reminded of a sequence of one of these cheesy movies.

So join me as I try to find as much information as I can on some of my favorites, and post about them as soon as I find enough info to make it entertaining and informative. Feel free to comment about your memories and favorites, as well.

For the sake of other passengers’ olfactory sanity, and as a gift to humanity in general, I can think of little or no reason that you should ever (EVER!!!) change your child’s POOPY diaper using the middle seat of your row.

Airlines went through all that hassle to install changing tables in at least one on-board lavatory for a reason. Deciding to wing it in your own seat is about as pleasant to the rest of us (even the ones with kids!) as if you yourself dropped your drawers and used the barf bag to do your own business out in the open because you’re too freakin’ lazy to go to the lavatory TWO ROWS BEHIND YOU.

Oi. Thank goodness for Rosanna’s French Vanilla Softlips chapstick, which make a great smelling salt in such cases.

I provide that proof.

And landing (no sound):

I, on the other hand, don’t mind it if it’s not as fresh as it could be. To me, if it ain’t funky, it’s good to go.

But the main question: Is the date on milk cartons the “sell-by” date, or the expiration date?

What say you?

All the time you’re supposed to save is taken away because you have to repeat your attempt again and again.
