Even though the content is old in both cases, someone pointed out a defense written by Brian Flemming about his interview with Ronald Sipus in The God Who Wasn't There.

My original article (here) was a letter I wrote to Sipus about the incident, essentially chiding him from backing down from the fight.  In the article I include some assumptions I made about the incident which are refuted in the blog Brian wrote in December of '06 as was pointed out recently in a comment on my original letter.

None of it really matters, now 4 years later, but if anyone is interested...well, there ya go.  I think since my letter comes in 4th if you search for Sipus' name on Google it's important to feature this response to it.

Hot Tempered SpoonsI love the detail in the luger.  Massive drama considering they're just utensils.

 Worth a look, though.

 Jewelry Designer Robin Dahlberg and her friends have an annual tradition to celebrate New Years by having a game party.  In honor of that, and the fact that their home is 100 years old this year, they designed 100 cupcakes.  Each with a different game.  Oh, and as far as cupcake decorators are concerned, these ain't no punk bitches.  Amazingly intricate work.

Check it out.  It's a quite an impressive collection of  games.

I was able to guess 74 correctly.

 
A Year of Movies - 2009

2009 was a decent year for movies.  I watched about 20 percent of every movie released this year, and the year isn't quite over, so I may slip Sherlock in before midnight tonight. [Note:  I did not slip it in]

With each, I'll attach a little mini-review and a 1 to 10 rating based on what I remember.  Of course, it's not fair to really compare two movies of different genre's on the same numeric scale, when a comedy can get away with loose camera work, where the best drama's can't (and that's just one example of the differences), but it's standard usage, so we'll avoid recreating a new system for judging movies and stick to convention.
