Happy birthdays to Trudy, Kara, Polter-Cow, and billytea!
Camping is wonderful. Camping in the Olympic Peninsula is awesome. Truly. I wonder if a reward like that would motivate even me to loose weight? ... Probably not.
Omnis, may the new job possibility work out in the best way for you!
P.-C., may your future wife appear on your horizon soon and may you recognize each other immediately and with great relief!

I can't fight this feeling Deep inside of me
I just wished Ms. Kara a happy birthday, and I told her that her present was still coming. She said, "That's ok. I'll be celebrating my birthday for a few more weeks."
I seem to have succumbed to this cold I've been fighting on the eve of a routine DRs appointment. Can I can in sick to my doctor?
Genesis' order is: land plants, the sun and moon, aquatic life and birds, land animals, humanity.
Huh? Granted, there seems to be earth before sun, but it looks to me like: heaven and earth, light and dark, sky, land, then vegetation.
And I'm going away to prep for class before you get a chance to respond. Sorry!
Have y'all seen Ricky Gervais' stand-up routine about Genesis?

Third day: land vegetation (v11-12). Fourth day: sun and moon and stars (v14-18 - note that, by a neat trick, evening and morning were already rocking around before the invention of the sun). Fifth day: aquatic life and flying birds (v20-22). Sixth day: land animals (v24-5), then humanity (v26-30; we needed more in the way of operating instructions).
The stuff on the first and second day doesn't include living things, and therefore doesn't have much bearing on the evolutionary time sequence. Neither does the creation of the sun and moon, of course, but since he got started on plants the day before I included them.
land animals (v24-5), then humanity (v26-30; we needed more in the way of operating instructions).
We're the ones responsible for programming the TiVo. It takes some training.
Do the two different accounts of creation in Genesis agree on this?

Kangaroos TiVo their young! In times of drought, they can hold onto a fertilised egg and pause its development until times are better. They lack the rewind function, though.
How about skipping commercials? That'd come in handy for, say, adolescence.
