lolwut?

As I looked through the mail today, I see a letter from my state representative addressed to me. Wondering what it was all about I promptly opened it. And it was a card wishing me a happy birthday. I've never received one of these before, well not from a politician. Yeah, thanks for the sentiment pal I appreciate the thought; however my birthday is not until September.

Here's a stupid thought.

What if UFOs are not spaceships from a distant planet? What if they are time machines driven by an evolved version of humans? This might explain some things about the mystery of UFOs. The first being why when we look into the heavens we don't see spaceships buzzing around. It might also explain why they seem to disappear just as suddenly as they appeared, not because they're moving at ridiculously fast speeds rather they are just going through some sort of time portal.

That's not to say that intelligent beings from far away planets don't have the means to get here. It's just that if you came from hundreds of millions of light years away; would you just stop to say hi to some guy named Ziggy? Then again that begs the question, would you travel through time just to say hi to some guy named Ziggy?

Your silence only proves your guilt.

I recently came across an article on wikipedia about a pope from the first century A.D. named Pope Formosus. Now when I read the biography part it was somewhat boring to tell the truth. However, when I scrolled down to the posthumous trial section of the article I was quite surprised. Admittedly I found it to be quite humorous that they bothered to dig up his grave, dress him up in papal vestments, and sit him up in a chair to face charges of transmigrating sees in violation of canon law, of perjury, and of serving as a bishop while actually a layman.

More information on the trial itself can be found in the Cadaver Synod article.

What's in a name?

Meh, guess I'll take the opportunity to say how I came up with the name of this blog. Yesterday I was getting ready to watch the four minute short from "Ai Yori Aoshi" titled "Speaking of Dreams". Not noticing the P I thought it said Seaking of Dreams. Yep that's how I came up with this blog's name, by misreading the episode title to an anime.
