Hi all,
This is my 'I'm new' post. I'm new. Now that I've got that out of the way I was wondering if anyone could help me out with screencaps of Scorpius in his dog-like state from the 4th season of Farscape.

Attention South Florida Atheists, Agnostics, Freethinkers, and Humanists

[04 Mar 2005|08:09pm]

masktchi

Our current members and I of the Broward Atheists Meetup (www.browardatheists.com and in www.meetup.com) welcome all interested in atheism, theism, freethought, agnosticism, humanism, transhumanism, state and church seperation (otherwise known as seperation of sturch), and related topics to our Tuesday meetings after 6:30pm. The www.browardatheists.com website has details on our venue, it is currently a pub, but will change when more members are acquired. We're already bulging at the seams with an average attendance of about twelve. No matter your age, beliefs, or preferences, we'd like to hear your opinion. Even the sternest Christians may come and present their thoughts, because if you really believe we're going to hell, we sure don't want to be wrong about the subject, haha, but most members are pretty confident about their atheism and agnosticism. I mention the invitation only to be open-minded. Anyways, we usually discuss religion, politics, philosophy, etc. but do not feel obligated to have to order anything despite it being a pub. There is no membership fee either, it is an informal event so far seeing how we have too few to be more organized, but we'd like to be! And we'd like to have enough people to start some activism and be as productive as possible.

Aside from the weekly Tuesday meetings, there are fun events such as campfires and beach barbeques scheduled. We sure would like to cooperate with other groups and more members to voice the rights and freedoms we and others deserve regardless of our beliefs and with your ideas and help, this can be made possible. The current goal is to eliminate the negative stigma attached to our labels by altruism and stoicism such as scholarships and good deeds. E-mail me with any questions or better yet, any one else you can get in contact with from the website to get a clearer understanding of who and what we are. We turn no one down and encourage debate, skepticism, and reason. The meetings are definitely worthwhile and interesting or else I wouldn't waste the little free time I have as a college student to invite any one else to come join the experience. If you are in the area and find the time inconvenient with your busy schedule, no hard feelings will be had, but at least sign the guestbook so we can know you support us and wish you could come. :-)

Cross-posted like a bitch.

Well, I just asked my chair David if I could teach science fiction next semester, as our scifi professor is retiring. He was iffy, but I'm going to bug the SHIT out of him until he lets me do it.

I want to focus the course on post=apocalyptic fiction. Right now, these are the books we would use:

1. The Stand, Stephen King
2. The Rift, Walter J. Williams
3. A Canticle for Liebowitz, Walter Miller
4. The Postman, David Brin
5. Swan Song, Robert McCammon
6. Earth Abides, George Stewart
7. Lucifer's Hammer, Larry Niven
8. The New Madrid Run, Michael Reisig
9. Eternity Road, Jack McDevitt
10. The Day of the Triffids, John Wyndham
11. The Dawning. Hugh P. CAve.
12. The Nature of Balance, Tim Lebbon
13. Parable of the Sower, Octavia Butler
14. The Gate to Women's Country, Sheri Tepper
15. Oryx and Crake, Margaret Atwood
16. Where Late the Sweet Bird Sings, Kate Wilhelm
17. Into the Forest, Jean Hegland
18. The Folk of the Fring, Orson Scott Card
19. Apocolypses: Prophesies, Cults, and Millenial Beliefs Through the AGes, Eugen Weber
20. Visions of the End, Bernard McGinn
21. The Encyclopedia of Apocolyptism, Bernard McGinn
22. End=Time Visions: The Road to Armaggedon, Richard Abanes
23. The Last Apocolypse, James Jr. Reston
24. Z for Zachariah, Robert C. O'Brien
25. Smart RAts: A Novel, Thomas Baird
26. Plague, Jean Ure
27. Cloud Warrior,1st Fantasy,Iron Master,Blood River,Death Briger,, Patrick Tilley
28, Twilight World, Poul Anderson
29. Malevil by Robert Merle
30. The Wild Shore : Three Californias (Wild Shore Triptych), K.S. Robinson
31. Emergence, David Palmer
32. Through Darkest Amer and Dawn's Uncertain Light, Neil Barrett
33. I am Legend, Richard Matheson
34. Cat's Cradle, Kurt Vonnegut
35. Damnation Alley, Roger Zelazny
36. Bangs and Whispers: Stories About the End of the World, James Frenkel
37. A Gift Upon the Shore, M.K. Wren

OK I know there are too many here. Obvious. So help me cut it down. How many should I include? I've NEVER taught a literature claSS before, so I need help! Is there anything I should include but didn't? Is there anything on the list that can go?

I have NOT read anything without a star by it. If YOU have, please review it for me!!!

Also, I need help figuring out how to teach this clas. I want to first look at how "post apocalyptic fiction" is a genre -- what is similar between these booKS? But what else could we talk about? Paper topics? Class discussions? HELP!

Also, I don't own almost ANY of these items. My Amazon.com wishlist has them all there. I would love anyone forever for buying me some of these. Books give me more joy than can be stated in words, in anything. Books are love to me. Here's the list (the cheaper the better, so used is GREAT). I swear you can get one for less than five bucks, and oh what joy it will give me!!

It just suddenly hit me--how does the volume work on the TV? Not how you adjust it--really, how does the machine make the sound quieter?

Mind-boggling. Ask Jeeves, perhaps.

Something that amuses and puzzles me: all the LJ communities devoted to people "confused" about their sexuality. Yeah, okay, maybe for a little while, but when it comes down to it, pick something. By the time you're comfortable enough to join a community devoted to it, you should pretty much know what you are.
But maybe I put too much emphasis on concrete decision.
I can understand being iffy on issues concerning sexuality, like gay marriage and whatnot, but really--you're supposed to have yourself figured out.

Oh well. Anyone want to explain the gaps in my logic without yelling at me?

just looking for someone random. i meet these people, nice enough but dull, i fear i'm one of them, perhaps theyve rubbed off on me or perhaps i was the inital virus that destroyed their social life, perhaps we'll never know.

is this where i rant on so you can pretend to get a better understanding of my personality? well for starts i like to rant. i like it a lot, but not to the point where i’ve ever become good at it. For the most part i generally give up my point mid-rant and simply change my aim to confusing the other party beyond comprehension instead. it’s worked out for me in the past, i’d give you an example but then we’d have to look at the credibility of my example as compared to my point. instead i will refer you to believe me baised on my personality that you are not yet aware of. i reference you to my profile to see my personality and my profile referencs you to my personality to see my point. i hope i’ve made that clear.

i'd also like to meet someone purely evil because i think they'd explode
