I have a friend who has a talent with words and writing. I first met him in Germany back in the mid 90’s. He was just a teenager then, but he had wisdom and a manner that showed real maturity. All of his family is like that. Of course he…
I found this little philosophy test through syaffolee. It asks you several questions and then gives you an idea of which philosophers are closest to your view points. From there, you can click on the person’s name and find more information about what they believed, find links to books on the person as well as other Web pages with more information. Very interesting. I don’t agree completely with Aquinas, but if you put all the top 5 together, it comes a little closer. Below are my results:
1. Aquinas (100%)
2. Mill (97%)
3. Augustine (95%)
4. Bentham (86%)
5. Kant (84%)
6. Epicureans (81%)
7. Spinoza (81%)
8. Aristotle (76%)
9. Ockham (60%)
10. Rand (55%)
11. Cynics (52%)
12. Hume (52%)
13. Sartre (52%)
14. Prescriptivism (47%)
15. Stoics (47%)
16. Nietzsche (45%)
17. Plato (43%)
18. Noddings (38%)
19. Hobbes (31%)

This morning I noticed a rather large spike in the number of visitors to my site. I checked the search phrases and noticed that almost half of all search phrases for this month were for the term “xwebs browser”. I posted about the brand-spanking new, soon-to-be browser a few…
Ray Garraud links to a site that showcases the world’s hottest hot sauces. The hottest hot sauce I’ve ever had was Dave’s Ultimate Insanity. I had some in Germany. One drop on a plateful of meat… I took one bite and instantly began to sweat. I KNOW my…
I’ve just updated my business Web site, Mantis Design. The old design had been around since early 2001, so it was time for a change. It’s done using PHP, XHTML and CSS. Nothing fancy, just simple, straightforward…
The Food and Drug Administration has issued a public health advisory on all over-the-counter drugs that contain Phenylpropanolamine (PPA). These include items like prescription cough and cold medications as a decongestant and in OTC weight loss products. Yale’s School of Medicine recently issued a report stating that the risk…
Just a few minutes ago, I tried logging into Hotmail. I have a Hotmail account to catch all my spam. Whenever I don’t want to give out my real address, I put the Hotmail account in. When I tried to log in with Safari, I got a message that said…
Wil Wheaton points to a change in the Yahoo! Privacy statement. Yahoo! is now using a technology called “Web Beacons” which allows them to track where you go on the Web, even though it’s not on their network. Halfway down the privacy statement, you’ll see an…
