Early Morning Can’t-Fall-Back-Asleep Thoughts

The Good Book says “Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, and you will be saved,” right?

No mention of believing that religious texts are 100% literally word-for-word from the mouth of God.

Sidebar: Shouldn’t 100% literalists be concerned about using the original Greek words for “Jesus is Lord,” since that’s what the text actually says word-for-word?

Sometimes

I get frustrated with myself.

Right now, my falcon cannot hear the falconer and the center is not holding.

I was thinking today about Edison’s workshop. Though the man was a bit of a jerk sometimes (and isn’t romanticized by steampunks like Tesla), he knew how to get things done.  According to radio-electronics.com, at Edison’s ‘invention factory’ in Menlo Park

“He said he would create a minor invention every ten days and a “big trick” every six months. In fact he had over 40 projects under way at any one time and he was applying for around 400 patents every year.”

Menlo Park was founded when Edison was 29, so clearly age was not a factor.

I keep hearing about the tremendous output of professional authors, people I respect. TV writers have astounding production when you look at what a good show does in a season.

So what’s my problem?

This could be awesome, if it’s not completely untrue

Okay, this is /film article about a rumor started by a Twitter account that may or may not be legitimate.

But since Wentworth Miller is awesome, and BioShock is awesome, I’m excited about it.

Rumor: Wentworth Miller in BioShock movie? 

Please be true.

Apparently the image below did something funky to the site. Just roll with it, okay?

Absolutely uncontroversially a good idea
