Do the Winners Deserve the 2007 Nobel Prize for Peace?

We heard all about it in the news last week.

Ever since its announcement there has been a debate on whether or not this effort for the environment deserved a Peace prize

One of the first reactions was Damian Thompson’s article from the Telegraph, although his piece is more of a personal attack on Al Gore, he raises an interesting point:

But there is a more fundamental objection… Climate change is a threat to the environment, not to “peace” and international order. The prize has gone to some sleazy recipients in the past, but at least you can make a case that their actions staved off bloodshed.

Give me them PS2 games!!!

It’s been almost 6 months since I’ve touched my PS2. It’s been demoted to a DVD player. I’ve got a few games, probably half of what I used to own. The top half, I’m going to give to my nanny’s son. He’s too young for very violent games, hence, I decided to give away those I believe are not suitable for his age. My nanny’s son grew up with me and my sister, and he’s almost like a brother to me. Ain’t he lucky?

So teh awesomezz LadyGadFly’s giving away a few DVD Games, and I thought that since I’m pretty big with games, I’ll give it a try. A few reasons why teh awesomezz LadyGadFly should give me them PS2 games: read more…

Subversion

The military has been deluding itself into thinking they’re the only real power which can save the nation. With the potentials for another coup brewing amidst another crisis in the national capital, let’s all hope our generals will not let this go to their heads.Long perceived as an abusive institution bereft of respect for human rights and given to interventions in the country’s democratic processes, the military is once again in the spotlight for another potential black mark to its reputation.

1259

   This is Entry #1259.  To be honest, I’m quite flabbergasted that the next entry will be Entry #1300.  And in 18 days, it will be the third year anniversary of The Marocharim Experiment.

   Maybe it’s time to open up a few Photoshop windows and make the new headers for the seventh volume of TMX.  But what to name it?  What color scheme?  Should I keep writing the same way as I did over the past six volumes of 1,259 entries?  Or should I write in l33t sp34k?

   See you all in The Marocharim Experiment: Volume Seven.  Thank you for your continued support and your reading.  As always, the experiment continues.
