Humans may not be able to keep up with computers in chess, but we'll never see the day that a computer is able to really appreciate a sunset, or comfort a frightened daughter, or write a truly original line of poetry, or inspire another person to love more.

It's interesting ... of all the attributes listed in the Bible that God cherishes in his people, things computers can do better just aren't part of it.

My lovely bride and I were discussing the "do men yearn for bad women" question. Interestingly enough, our definitions of "bad" differed significantly. Her definition was more closely aligned with yours, I think: "bad" = "mysterious or adventurous." I viewed women's attraction to "bad" men as flirting with the dangerous. She disagreed strongly. I conceded the point.

Anyway, I offered up the question whether men are attracted to "bad" women. She immediately came back with: "That's what the Angelina Jolie thing is all about."

I don't see Angelina Jolie as "bad." I used to see her as flat-out weird back when she was with Billy Bob Thornton, with the demonic overtones and the viles of each other's blood thing. Now she seems to have gone after the domestic role. It could be that I just have no attraction to Angelina Jolie. Never did. Never will.

I offered up Katherine Zeta Jones -- who I think is smoldering -- and Lisa said Jolie and Jones are pretty much cut from the same cloth.

I stopped trying to understand. I'm just not capable of it. :-)
