So i do too much work for the UGS already. I had school groups. I just got their new site up… and it actually looks decent. …As for any other progress in the group? There is none. …It’s sad, really. The UTSA is pumping out events left right and center, having biweekly meetings, nominating executives, getting faculty support, getting community support, rolling in dough and so on and so forth. But nope. Not at Guelph. At Guelph… I am slowly trying to get Will to get things together. Now that the website is done I’m going to try and get him to do the clubs day table, because I think it’s going to take a lot more planning then what he is going to put into it. Sigh-age.

On a much happier note - I got a bed today. Finally. Now my back will stop screaming at me for sleeping on a shitty pull out bed.

On a sadder note, I haven’t heard from CFRU lately and I want to get on the freakin’ radio like now now now.

I’ve found a few things on Prof Moran’s blog tonight that I’m absolutely in love with. Hopefully I get to meet him one day soon, my new executive position at the Center for Inquiry Ontario should eventually lead to our paths crossing one day, I’m just not sure when.

The first thing that he has on his site is a link to …quite possibly the most entertaining thing I’ve looked at online for a long time. Virtual City. You can go anywhere in the city and see pictures of the street. I found Allen’s house, my brother’s apartment, my friend Adam’s condo and my friend Phil’s building. I found pictures of all my favorite stores, bars and parks to sleep in. I even found CFI. (Click to enlarge and take a look. ITS SO COOL!)

Maybe it’s just the geographer in me, but I find that to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen … since google earth. Google earth is awesome too. But it doesn’t have pictures of CFI!!

Also on Moran’s blog is a segment about this:

It is supposedly the new symbol for atheism. It’s part of Dawkins new “thing” called The OUT Campaign. It’s a campaign for atheists to start wearing this “A”, putting the “A” on their blogs, and generally just “coming out”. Moran makes a good point - we should be uniting in positivity, not negativity. But more than that - if you’re going to “come out” wear something that actually identifies you with that particular group! You don’t see gays walking around with big “G”s on their shirts… Sure, they have a rainbow, but the rainbow is a long used symbol… we can’t just have 500 people wearing “A”s because no one will know wtf you’re wearing an “A” for. Wear a shirt that says “Atheist” for crying out loud. NO ONE is going to understand this goddamn “A”!

I’m an atheist, because I don’t believe in a god. What I do believe in is secularism, and promoting secularist groups who have common goals of building communities and developing social networks and nets. Not putting “A”s on all our chests because some big wig atheist who is a total jerk ass to religions told us to so that we can “come out”. Sure, be proud of your atheism, but if you want to draw attention to it - this fucking “A” won’t be your answer.

Finally on Moran’s blog… this coin is soooooo coooooool.

WOOOO! DINOSAUR!!!!!… and this $4 coin is apx $40.
