Aaron and BLOCK CAPS
Now, things are a little odd. Firstly, on my way here, I passed a billboard- yes, a billboard- that normally advertises cigarettes or online gambling. Today, though, it's advertising a Faith Healer. Well, actually, let's be honest: It seems to be advertising a charismatic church. In any case, Ican tell you that as advertising they had a picture of a man holding a microphone, and the block-capital words
MIRACLES
HEALING
FAITH
So I was all set up to talk about faith healers, no doubt mentioning James Randi when I logged on.
(James Randi is manfully trying to use the scientific method on claims of the miraculous. The trouble, as I see it, is that part of the definition of a miracle is that it can't be replicated in laboratory conditions. In other words, it automatically fails the test that science uses to distinguish real effects from illusions and imagination.)
Where was I?
Oh yeah, logging on.
What happens when you mis-type a URL? You get to some unscrupulous internet-roach's site, offering you viagra or porn, right?

Actually, don't go there. Every day I grow more jealous of web-counters. I'll summarise it for you.

Happily, I have a shiny post-enlightenment rationalist outlook, so I'm pretty much immune to coincidences, particularly when they concern those that get called "strange" by people who believe in transubstantiation.
OK, so far this blog has been confusing and probably slightly enraging. Sorry about that, I'm very distracted and quite lazy today. Time for me to shake my head and move on.
Actually, that's about the limit of my blog imagination creative write words.
I go now.
