When Hannity posits God to be “an invisible man in the sky that shoots fire from his fingertips,” I couldn’t tell whether he was speaking of the way “elitist liberals” see the Christian God… or was just expressing his own personal view (eek?). In response though, he poses the huge rhetorical stumper: “Well they believe that something can come from nothing! If you believe in the Big Bang theory, where did all that energy and all those molecules that come - that banged together - to create universes within universes? It seems like a far greater miracle to me!”
And the talking head replies, “That’s a tough one, isn’t it… [*wink wink*]”
LAWLZ.
Other than that, these 8 minutes make me so mad that I refuse to indulge them with further comment.
I think the concept of Schrödinger’s cat also applies to old lovers you haven’t talked to in a long time.
The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics implies that after a while with no communication, your ex is simultaneously alive and dead. Yet, when you track them down on Facebook (or through other means), you see your ex either alive or dead, not a mixture of alive and dead.
Hmm. I think the more unsettlingly profound (and actually true) implication is that you can never be fully unbound from each other, but I see what you did there.

Pretty full of win.
The following list presents common information security mistakes and misconceptions, so you can avoid making them.

In an edgeconomy, chasing competitive advantage is like playing a game of economic musical chairs – one where you leave a grenade on your chair every time the music starts up again. Sooner or later, everyone gets blown up.Umair on “Saving Strategy From the Strategists”
I agree with the statement in general, but find that it’s more about a few guys in the room building a new patio and going to sit outside to smoke a cigar while they wait for the rest of the duck-duck-goosers inside to realize there’s a new addition to the house. When the rush comes and the shoddy woodwork caves, they’re conveniently inside grabbing another beer and posting twitpics of everyone else on their butts.
Except for the Collateralized Mortgage crisis. That’s more like someone forgot to nail down one of the patio boards, and the first beer goer stepped on the edge - smacking him in the face three stooges style while the rest all run full speed into his abruptly stopped carcass. Everyone else still falls on their ass anyway.

Like little moments of zen, or snapshots of creative conception, these nascent ideas never really had a chance. Instead, they are held forever on the tip of the tounge and the clever screenshot, long after the cache has faded away. Enjoy.
