It is a beautiful day here in Denver. The clouds are racing by, the sun is coming out, and the grass is starting to dry out.

I spent part of the morning reading through some new atheist blogs that are popping up all over the place. I have to agree with most of them. What I find surprising is how many of these there are. I think there is now quite a large groundswell of atheism in America which, is a relief after watching one religion fly planes into some buildings in New York and another one spending trillions of dollars on a poorly orchestrated war in Iraq. So, it short it is time for Americans to start considering atheism.

Our son has grown up quite a bit since I created this blog (it was supposed to record my thoughts as he grew up from a tiny baby but I never found the time to write). Right now he is in our living room watching a Leap Frog video. I feel lucky that he seems to have picked up my love for learning. He eagerly absorbs educational videos and books. And by absorb I mean he nearly memorizes these. A few months back I was surprised to see that he nearly memorized every page of a small book called “No Peeking.” I hope that he has at least some ability to memorize well. I never had that ability and it lead to a struggle in school.

Our son also has a keen interest in airplanes and helicopters. I don’t know if he picked that directly up from my interests (I didn’t really push it) but I am glad since it makes it easy to pick out toys come birthday time.

The plan for today (Saturday) is to go to the library, hit a playground, catch a quick nap, and search for a new tv to complete our home theatre. We don’t have any big plans for the weekend but really just to rest and catch up on a very busy weekend.

Oh. If you actually know me, shoot me a line.
