Back Up and Running!

I have decided to bring back this blog for random bits of ideas, thoughts and discussions that don't belong on my little family's blog. I hope you'll return here in the future.

Our NEW blog

The address is: www.ethanandsaraaylett.blogspot.com

Mars and Venus Together Forever

The other day I bought this book by John Gray, Ph.D. that I didn't know he had written. I have "Men Are From Mars, Women Are Venus" and knew that he also wrote "Mars and Venus On a Date" (extremely good book by the way! I wish I had read that book 10 years ago. It would have saved me from so much dating stress and confusion.) I bought "Mars and Venus Together Forever" quite impulsively and without thinking. I guess I just felt like blowing $15. I took it home and started reading it. I am only 34 pages into it and am blown away! You all have got to read it. It will be my new wedding gift to everyone from now on. It's amazing! I am excited to learn all this new intriguing stuff about women :) I was so immature in thinking that I knew far more than I actually did. The book is brilliant.

Huh?

Today while speaking in Independence, Missouri, Burack Obama was speaking about patriotism. I don't remember the context, but he said the following:

"As we begin our 4th century as a country..."

Fourth? Huh? What!?

1776 - 1876 = 1st century

1876 - 1976 = 2nd century

1976 - 2076 = 3rd century

2076 - 2176 = 4th century

Wow! Welcome to the year 2076 everyone!...apparently.
