A Green Wal-Mart

I thought this was so cool. Beth Ann and I were in the Wal-Mart in Hewitt. We needed some things from the frozen foods section. When we found the isle I looked down it and it was dark. I though maybe it was not working. As we walked down the isle looking for the items the lights in the cases came on. I have had not seen this kind of thing yet and so I was amused and entertained. Evidently they are set to stay on for longer than anyone would want to stand there and wait for them to go off. I can see where that would be real entertaining to walk up and down the isle seeing the lights go on and off. The Wal-Mart people probably saw that too.

New Movie by Ben Stein

I received my Outreach magazine today and found an article for Ben Stein's movie Get Expelled coming out in February. I am interested in seeing the movie. Like most Christians I will jump on the Intelligent Design (ID) wagon. The movie website lists news articles concerning ID and I was surprised to see a couple about Baylor (1, 2-not available on the Waco-Trib website). My brother went to Baylor and I live in Waco and am found of Baylor. Both speak of Baylor actually silencing the notion of a creator over natural selection.

"Now them's  fighting words!" Okay, now hold on. I have no knowledge of any of this other than what is in the articles and I was just saying "hey Ben Stein's got a movie out and I think I want to go see it."

Anyway, the movie seems to deal more with free speech and the ability to voice and pursue all possibilities in science than an outright flaming Creationist movie. Check out the link, if you want you can go see it with me and I'll even treat you to a hamburger (a really limited offer: you must live in or travel to Waco, TX; be one of the first two people to take me up on the offer; and you must not be creepy).
