Great quote.

It is easier to live through someone else than to become complete yourself.

They say it's your birthday!






Sending out a big Happy Birthday to my BFF Sarah. Please enjoy the following JibJab video I made of us a while back. The guy is Josh Gates, from Sci-Fi's "Destination Truth." Yes, we are complete dorks. My personal favorite part of the video is Sarah in the long black cape. I was jealous that she got to wear that.

Option #3

Instead of voting this November for crap or crappy crap, consider Bob Barr. For any of you that may have been a fan of what Ron Paul stood for, Bob Barr isn't too far off. Here's a helpful chart:

Tom Cruise is a Twink.

And I don't mean that a gay-slur. He's just a pansy.

I don't love Dr. Drew (you've seen him before I'm sure), but I have to give him his due for laying it out for Tom Cruise.

And yeah, that's the same Tom Cruise that lambasted Matt Lauer because apparently Lord Voltron gave him the omniscience to be an expert in a field of science he never studied. Cause all problems are traced to not taking your vitamins. Is he in cahoots with Centrum?

"Take a guy like Tom Cruise," said Pinsky, who doesn't know Cruise and has never consulted with him. "Why would somebody be drawn into a cultish kind of environment like Scientology? To me, that's a function of a very deep emptiness and suggests serious neglect in childhood -- maybe some abuse, but mostly neglect."

That, unsurprisingly, didn't sit well with the Cruise camp. The "Mission: Impossible" star's lawyer, Bert Fields, ripped Pinsky in a statement, saying, "He seems to be spewing the absurdity that all Scientologists are mentally ill."

Here's the best part!
Fields concludes by saying, "The last time we heard garbage like this was from Joseph Goebbels," Adolf Hitler's propaganda minister.

Poor Tom Cruise, got his little feelings hurt. Now his lawyer is comparing Dr. Drew to a FREAKING NAZI?!

Speaking of Scientology, have you seen the South Park episode about it? If not, watch this clip. It. is. hilarious. Soul catchers in the sky! "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds..."

Smart Move.

Ron Paul has just announced that he will switch the gears of his campaign, now focusing on the "Campaign for Liberty." No longer will he seek the presidential bid for this year's election but will instead focus on bolstering the races of Republicans grounded in the Constitution (see also: Libertarians) and seeking to restore liberty. He will back candidates like BJ Lawson (who decided to run after being inspired by RP) and promote other candidates seeking offices of all types.

This is not a campaign to be decided in a few months, just to be decided again in a few years.

This is Ron Paul finding a way to be the leader that this country needs, regardless of how a temporary election went.

This is Ron Paul leading a revolution.

You are a smart man, Ron Paul.

Pimpin' Prodigal Jon

This guy is on my links, but read this great post about using God as a financial plan.

Megan's World has been brought to you today by the number 46.

** You might need a stiff dose of Ritalin to make it through this post.**

Wow I'm bored. I vowed to do nothing today, and I made good on that promise. With the exception of making a quick jaunt to the local Teeter (I had no bread), the most substantial accomplishment of my day has been getting dressed, and that didn't happen until it was completely necessary. As Mark Twain said: "Naked people have little or no influence on society."

The annual "Megan's Birthday Dinner" will be coming up in 2 weeks and this leaves me to choose the restaurant which is never an easy task for me. I'm always looking for that one restaurant that will provide you with the Ultimate Dining Experience. Red Robin is quite close. They have THE BEST veggie burger ON THE PLANET. Run, don't walk, to Red Robin if you haven't been there yet. Unfortunately I won't get paid for that bit of free promotion. The annual birthday dinner should not be confused with the annual June Celebration of Megan's Birthday - this is only one event in the festivities. Wait until I turn 30 - we'll be celebrating that all of 2010.

ANYWAY, I had a point to this post if only I could shut up and come to it. My mom had told me about this restaurant in Kannapolis that does Mediterranean cuisine (I just almost spelled cuisine as quisine - I spent waaay too much time in the sun this week) and its name is "Forty Six."

So I Googled "Forty Six" to try to find its website and the delightful Wikipedia popped up first, giving me a primer on the history and significance of this "Forty Six" deal.

I know, I know. What's this? 46 is BETWEEN 45 and 47?? Eureka. It gets better.

I've always thought weird number coincidences (or are they?) are cool things. Like on Lost: 4 8 15 16... you know the drill.

46 (forty-six) is the natural number following 45 and preceding 47.

Less mind-numbing facts about 46:
  • The atomic number of palladium.
  • The number of (normal) human chromosomes.
  • In Psalm 46 in the King James Version of the Bible, the 46th word from the beginning is "shake" and the 46th word from the end is "spear"; at the time of publication of the King James Bible, playwright William Shakespeare was 46 years old
  • The number of samurai, out of 47, who carried out the attack in the historical Ako vendetta; sometimes referred to as the 46 Ronins to discount the one samurai forced to turn back
  • Because 46 in Japanese can be pronounced as "yon roku", and "yoroshiku"(よろしく) means "my best regards" in Japanese, people sometimes use 46 for greeting.
