I just rented the movie Thor, from Redbox,  for my older kids.  Here are my thoughts in case you haven't seen it yet. First off, I’m not really impressed with mythological stories at all, so watching Natalie Portman portray a physics genius was pretty hard to stomach. Oh, and the movie wasn’t spectacular either.

For those who read my article about Kool-Aid and Stevia, here’s the next level of stevia greatness.  Zevia has a new line of sodas that are all 100% natural and sugar free. They sweeten these soft drinks with stevia and I’m sure they are outstanding. I just saw a coupon ad in the paper today [...]]]> http://robproject.com/blog/2011/08/cola-sugar-stevia-zevia/feed/ 0 http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/ http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/#comments Sun, 13 Mar 2011 20:23:00 +0000 rgoodwin http://robproject.com/blog/2011/03/nobody-is-calling-anyone-anymore/

I don’t believe Google is some huge benevolent force for good in our society. And the proof for that is evident in people’s reactions when I voice my caution about the company.
