I would like everyone to note the relative rankings of Iowa and Michigan. Iowa is just 3 rankings "above" (below!) Michigan, both having 64% of their population reporting that religion is an important part of their daily life. I am crediting that margin to myself.

It looks like linux and mac are being at least actively considered by google chrome's development team.

Douglas Adams quote
"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
— Douglas Adams
Sometimes I wonder that even if we did create an AI, if it doesn't come with all of the bizarre preprogrammed mental baggage that humans have to make adapting to such a strange existence possible, would it act like anything we associate with "normal" intelligence at all? Would it even be recognizable as intelligent?

New Years Resolution
When I type in IM, I have a horrible habit of making horrible run on sentences, I feel so dumb because of it. My goal this year is to stop doing it, so if you are ever talking to me on IM and I type a run on sentence, you are to yell at me and question my parentage.
I don't get it
story
1) Some girl gets bored over break and sends over 14,000 text messages. She has an unlimited text message plan.
2) ???
3) Her parents punish her.
