I was just re-listening to Net(a)Nite 36, and recalling the world of stock options and when workplaces would issue them out like candy on a Halloween night. I worked for an online provider (where I met Brian, actually) that had a stock option vesting thing that just had the bottom drop out of it. Leo and Amber bring up the point of how this isn’t the smartest idea as people sit around work all day calculating their net worth. I did that, and consequently took the loss on it when I sold out. But I remember that the price of the stock would literally set the tone for morale in the workplace. Most damaging in this regard.
But wait, there’s hope! Jesus says in Matthew Chapter 6:19-34 that the wealth of this world is just that, of this world. So it’s better to take up the cross and follow Him. Don’t just listen to me say it, dust off that old bible and gain a whole new outlook on life. In it is a peace that passes all understanding.

Well, it’s been kinda thin for posts as of recently, so I intend to make up for it now.
First off, Wil Harris has a great new tech show called Unwired. I got a chance to watch it on Saturday, and I was impressed with the cutting edge tech and the simple straightforward format. Please support the lad and watch all that happens on Channelflip.
Secondly, Brian has been posting again at Randomthink. He’s all crazy on Halo 3, and as I only own legacy nintendo consoles, I go to him personally for all my gaming news. Also in the development phase; Brian and I might try to put out a web comic. More on that as events warrant.
Thirdly, let me put the bug in your ear about bluegrass gospel. There’s a fabulous album out there called Gloryland: 30 Bluegrass Gospel Classics that I’ve been listening to for about the last 2 months. Sometimes it causes me to tremble, indeed!
Fourthly (o when will it end?), Phoenix is still a city under siege by illegal alien criminals, please keep this in mind as we head into the election season and let’s get someone who says they will reform immigration to let the honest in and keep the deviants out.
And finally, the Lord God has more love for His children than even His children can possibly imagine. Don’t believe me? He left a whole book about it called the Bible. Take a moment and just start reading John’s gospel. I think it’s comforting to know that there is something else besides this world and its values.
