I was in a chat with 2 of my friends and we started to talk about what would happen if Bill Gates ran for the Presidency. Would you vote for him? What do you think he would do in office? What party do you think he would be. How about Steve Jobs, Linus?

I am one of the few fortunate people that get to live near my church. Today it paid off. I kind of forgot about Saturday night vespers at church, until I heard the church bell ringing. I am only a five minute walk away from church, so I was able to get there fast.
