Sam Harris - Death and the Present Moment
This was filmed at the 2012 Global Atheist Convention in Melbourne
Tremendous video. Long, but take the time. It's worthwhile.. Great blog from an evolutionary geneticist, atheist, anti-theist, christ mythicist and caffeine junky! SOB

Royalty, Schmoyalty: An Eye-Rolling Post
Who cares what some old lady and her brood are wearing? Seriously? Or rather, why do so many people care so damned much? Is it respect for something supposedly greater than themselves? Veneration of a mummified corpse of an institution that endured for millenia? Honoring a national tradition? Even if the answer to all these is "yes", I still see the fawning over the Queen & Co's outfits and the minutiae of their lives as not just tacky, but simply incomprehensible.
States my feelings precisely. Didn't we fight a revolution to get rid of pretentious wankers like "The Royals"? Of course we've replaced them with douchebags like Trump and that twat Romney. SOB

The Stingy Students Guide to Getting Drunk for FREE!
Hunt down art auctions round your city:
Art auctions always provide FREE wine, as this creates ambiance, relaxes patrons and encourages them to buy loads of art. However be sure to check dress codes and brace your yourself for pretentious twats.
Although I'm not a student, I am frugal and I find this blog entertaining. I particularly like the part about the "PRETENTIOUS TWATS" in this post. SOB
