Yikes, New People

So tomorrow I will be moving into my house with 4 new people. 2 of the 6 people in the house are a couple.
I hope I’ll be able to live peacefully and happily. That’s important to stay focus on what’s really important. Home is more a place for me to sleep, as I’ll be spending [...]

First Observer at LHC

I felt I should comment on what I mean by “being the first to see something at the LHC.”
By no means will the person who can discover something new be the only pioneer. It was through the hands of the massive effort of all people involved. From the designers, to the information organizers, to the [...]

LHC SetBack

Artistic Sense

This is not necessarily a bad thing. I [...]

Beam Day

Yes, the public has a right to know that there are people out there worried about the Black Hole – but upshot is that everyone is becoming scared of it as well.
Alarmists…are no [...]

Deadwood

Just finished this 3 season HBO series today. One of the smartest and captivating works of television I’ve ever seen, and I can’t praise it enough.
One of the themes of the last episode is that most of us end up going with our hearts rather than our heads.
“Right or wrong, you go with your feelings.”
