Solomon on the 2008 U.S. Presidential Election

Saturday June 7, 2008 by Jonathan Camenisch

Better was a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who no longer knew how to take advice. For he went from prison to the throne, though in his own kingdom he had been born poor. I saw all the living who move about under the sun, along with that youth who was to stand in the king’s place. There was no end of all the people, all of whom he led. Yet those who come later will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind.

—Ecclesiastes 4:13-16

Twitter anyone?

Does anyone use Twitter and see a lot of value in it? I keep hearing from really smart, productive people that they love it, and I must admit it still baffles me. (I thought I was pretty techie.)

This recent article from Forbes re-raises my interest in this hip tech tool. I’ve half a mind to sign up, just to figure out why it could benefit anyone—but who has the time?

This is pretty much a time waster, but it gave me a real laugh.
