This is a hilarious mockery of homeopathic and “alternative” medicine.

Math is Hard, But Awesome
I have always liked math. Even when it was way over my head, I liked it. The one area of math that intrigued me the most was probability. Probably because it was useful in everyday activities, and the brain has a hard time understanding probabilities. I have forgotten more math then I know now. I pretty much forgot how to calculate the probability of things. What got me thinking about this is the current audiobook I am listening to, The Drunkard’s Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives. Yeah, I am listening to a book about math.
It’s really good. I just finished a chapter about probability. Did you know your chances at winning the lottery are about the same as getting killed driving to buy a ticket? I never heard of Pascal’s Triangle before, but now I am ready more about it. Today I just started a chapter about randomness, and how it’s pretty much impossible to have a truly random number. Math may be hard, but it’s awesome too.

Moving Link Blog
For quite a while I have had this blog, and a link blog. I am basically addicted to the internet. I like to share cool things I find. I was using Tumblr for my link blog. It would automatically post things that I share on different services. It was so easy that I have been tempted to move my whole blog over there or to Posterous, another nice site. I just don’t feel comfortable switching to someone else’s system though, plus I love WordPress so much. So I found a better way to combine my blog with my link blog. I have moved my link blog to Posterous. Posterous has a nice feature that will post my posts over there onto my blog. If it all works out, my links will get posted to my blog also. So instead of getting a couple posts a week from me, you will be getting a couple a day. Hope you like the changes, and if not I don’t care. It’s MY blog. haha.

New Shirt
Every day I check out shirt.woot.com and see what their shirt of the day is. Last week they had a cool one, so I bought it.
It’s a spaceman holding a flag up on the Sun.For some reason I felt like reading the tag. In small words on the tag is says, “Not to be used as pants.”. I love when companies do funny shit like that.

Canadian Health Care Myths
I think it’s quite obvious that the US needs some major health care reform. Many countries much poorer than ours do much better jobs at taking care of their people. You always here the horror stories of how bad the health care systems are in the UK and Canada. I have always questioned those stories. I have talked with Canadians, and none of them have any complaints about their health care. They actually think our health care is crazy. I just ran across this article debunking Canadian health care myths. I love articles debunking myths. I am sometimes over obsessed at finding the real truths. It’s always hard to tell who you should believe, but a little critical thinking goes a long way.
