The Magic Orb Compells you

I will spend the rest of this afternoon making every decision based on "The Mystical Orb". The Mystical Orb is basically a Magic 8-Ball. The box it comes is claims "Something cannot be explained! Have you got any question in your mind? Do you have any doubt in your life?" "Your answer is here!!" The are 20 different responses ranging from "Absolutely", "Focus and Ask Again", to a simple "No"

I will pose a question that can be answered then I will shake the Orb for 10seconds and then based on the answer I will react...

  • Should I check facebook? "Absolutely" I log into facebook to see roughly 10 statuses about the Supreme Court decision in California about Proposition 8. Now I'll be honest, I do not care one bit about this. I wouldnt say I am a extremely religious person but I do believe in God, and I do read the Bible. According to the Bible any type of homosexual behavior is wrong. Now I am far from perfect and as the Bible also said " Let he who is without sin cast the first stone" John 8:7, so therefor I do not judge a person based on their choices in life. However in the society that we live in we are a government for the people, by the people and of the people. Clearly the voice of the people has been heard in the decision.
  • Should I check facebook again? "Focus and Ask Again" I wait another 15 seconds before I ask again.. "Indications say Yes" I press refresh and I see that my good friend and almost bowling teammate (screw Riverwood) has posted a link that says that the Dave Matthews Band is allowing fans to listen to their new album before it is released. I personally am not a huge fan of DMB. I have never been to a concert I do not own a single album (however I do have multiple songs in my iTunes Library). I respect him for his talent but I have been able to understand what makes him so great.
  • Guitar Hero? "So It Shall Be" We have Guitar Hero Arcade here where I work. It is basically Guitar Hero III but with a few different songs. I played the song "Cliffs of Dover" and scored just over 146,000. Not too shabby, the High Score (also from me) is just over 154,000. This is on hard, as I am sure I will fail miserably if I attempt to play Expert.

It is now almost 4pm.. I have just about 3 more hours here at work.. this blog is beginning to look like it may be quite long when we are finished. I plug my iPod Touch into my iHome I have here in my office and listen to "Fantasy Focus: Baseball" its part of my daily routine.

  • Check my Fantasy Team? "Indications Say Yes" I am part of a 10 team keeper league. Currently my team is in dead-last place. Upon looking at my team I notice that I have a trade offer on the table from team "pumpsmeup" I counter his trade with a Aaron Hill & Geovany Soto for Zach Greinke. I am hoping he will take this as that would sure up my pitching staff. I also am going to set my line-up for this evening (knowing I'll probably check it again before the 7:05 games start)

My boss calls I have to do some paperwork :( boo that, as much as I would like to ask the orb if I should I cant really let it decided this. ..
