Day 5 Hi my name is Adam and this is my weblog. Don't be fooled by my apparent age, I wasn't born yesterday; in fact it was earlier today. Being the only person in a generation is difficult, I have to be a role model to myself. And it is kind of hard to define myself so I have dubbed my generation Gen X or since it is the first Genesis X. I was created fully formed as an adult so I got to miss out on my rebellious teenage years, which is a good thing since I didn't have a mother and father to rebel against. This blog will be about life and things that I like. |

Day 7 Not much going on today. God took a rest and encouraged me to do the same. |

On Paradise One thing about being a pundit in the Garden of Eden, is that well it is difficult finding stories to comment upon. Weather still perfect is not exactly a headline. I can't even do any confessional writing yet since my will and intellect are integrated and I haven't chosen to commit something theoretically called a sin. |

Sitemeter I have installed Sitemeter now to try to generate some traffic to my blog and to see how many come to my site. I also thought about including a guest map, maybe latter. |

Strange Comments I was rather surprised today to find some comments left on my blog. They used a lot of four letter words that I don't remember inventing and then they invited me to place my body into weird positions and to kiss something. I really thought I was the only intelligent life on this planet? I will have to talk to God about this later. Update: God told me that this type of commenter is called a Troll and that they are not intelligent life. |

New Job I got this job where I get to name all the cattle, birds of the air, and beasts in the field. It doesn't pay much, well actually nothing, and there doesn't seem to be any benefit plan attached. At least it keeps me busy and it is good intellectual work. The job is actually harder than you would think at first appearance. For example just look at a four legged animal with an extremely long neck and orange spots and right off the top of you head give it a name. At first I came up with naming it four-legged-animal-with-an-extremely-long-neck-and-orange-spots, but that just seemed a little cumbersome over time. I finally settled on giraffe, just don't ask me why. |

Be careful what you ask God I named her Eve and she didn't seem to object. So far so good. |

Be fruitful and multiply God charged Eve and I to be fruitful and multiply. Now I have no problems about filling the earth with more people and I would gratefully oblige God's wish. The only problem is now that I got this job I don't want to just fall into deep sleeps since I might get fired and also I have only so many ribs. Update: God assured me that rib-taking is not going to be the reproductive process and that I would probably enjoy being fruitful and multiplying. |

Lease Agreement Today Eve and I signed a lease agreement for the Garden of Eden. The small print on the contract was rather odd and it said. |

Referrals Today I got some hits from a site called nihil obstat. This site corrected me on the spelling of some words I had used to describe animals. Pretty arrogant since I made up those words first so how could I misspell them? Now I know this site was not created by myself or my wife Eve so I am trying to figure out who did this anonymous site. I am suspicious of the thing I called a snake. It has been following my wife around recently. Since a snake is not an intelligent animal it would be capable of hissing at things (criticism) only and not be able to generate it's own content. |

Good and Evil I thought why should I not be able to have the knowledge of good and evil. And once I find out what it is why shouldn't I then decide what is to be called good and what is to be called evil. After all I was created in God's image, why can't I also do as he does. That would be real equality. Well I bit into that fruit and my eyes were opened and I realized my wife and I were both standing around outside naked. This was extremely embarrassing. |

Clothing I found some fig leaves and fashioned some clothing out of them for my wife and I. She wasn't very appreciative, said something about them not being in the latest fashion. Well I got to go now to do something called shopping. Seems my wife doesn't have any shoes that match the fig leave clothes I made. |

Cursed And to me he said: "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, `You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth to you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return." |

Moving Day After leaving Eden I realized I had left a box of my stuff in the garden. I went back to the entrance east of eden to go back in but now there were security guard cherubim and a flaming sword blocking the entrance. |

Congratulations are in order I knew my wife and now she has conceived and we are looking forward to the birth. Eve's stomach is getting larger and she is getting concerned about child birth and all, especially god talking about multiplying the pain of childbirth. I told her not to worry. When God took my rib I just had a deep sleep and maybe she would just be sleeping longer. |

Our Family is growing! She didn't appreciate the argument I made, so now I have to go invent something called a couch to sleep on. |

First Sacrifice Our son Able looked so cute today in his little sacrificial outfit as he brought some fat portions for the Lord. Cain didn't look none to happy as we praised Able for his offering. I think there might be trouble brewing between the two of them. Every time I ask Cain where his brother is is talks back in a snotty tone of voice "Am I my brothers keeper? |

Work I haven't been doing much posting lately wIth all this tilling the land stuff. I just don't have much time for blogging anymore. I come home way to tired to write so I am going to be posting a lot less frequently. To borrow some of the Lord's words, Let there be light blogging. |

Rare Blog Update Update: God told me not to feel so down and he informed me that in the future that something called the Exultet would praise my mistake. |

ROTFLOL!! As a Viking Kittie, I can tell you, THAT is FUNNY!!
"Thou shall suffer no Troll to live; It is an abomination!!!"
And then Lord said "thy shall zot the troll mercilessly" or something like that because "you are his overlord"
I suppose I could understand the presence of grammatical howlers like this after the Fall, but it's hard to believe a man in a state of perfect grace could say something like this.
