Tell me all your thoughts on god..
Random though that runs through my head when I’m up too late: If I’m given “free-will” as a gift by god, what gives the “religious right” the idea that they are allowed to take that away? Whether it’s abortion, same-sex marriage, or whatever else might be the plague of the day, it’s *MY* choice. I’m sure [...]
Wordless Wednesday
I’m going to start doing “Wordless Wednesday” for two simple reasons. 1. I’m rapidly running out of words and need to conserve the important ones for my deathbed. You know, like “Inheritance? What Inheritance?” or something along those lines. 2. I just bought a new camera, and have to show off. So here it goes…Please [...]
I believe….
At the end of the “Blue Collar Comedy Tour”, Jeff, Larry, Ron, and Bill play a sort of game. They each say something that they believe. Given who they are it’s usually *REALLY* funny. My favorite is one from Jeff Foxworthy (used, as usual, without permission) “I believe that when someone jumps in front [...]
Little Feet….Big Feet
This morning Chaos climbed into our bed….I was out chatting with a friend last night and it seems this is the result of me not being home at bedtime is that he’ll come to our room at about 3am to check to make sure I got home ok. (and then just snuggle in and try [...]
Chocolate -
I love chocolate. The taste, the feel, the way it stimulates the brain in ways very little else does. I have a weakness for it. I think about it it often. I think that as far as addictions go it’s fairly harmless, I don’t want it every day, but when I feel the urge it’s [...]
A warm welcome…
To NettKitten – also known as Mrs. Shredderfeeder. Who has agreed to throw some of her unique insights at the site. Since she’s the only real writer in the family I suspect she’ll bring a few things to the blog that I could never bring. A few of those being: Sophistication Dignity Wit Imagination So [...]
Alien Visitors.
I’ve always viewed this little peice of machinery as proof positive that we are not alone in this universe. Look at the facts. It’s over 30 years old. It’s still the fastest plane on record. Even Lockheed is to this date unable to duplicate the technology. It’s still to this day cooler than anything we’ve [...]
This is the kind of car dealership that makes me want a horse.
I’m at Jerry’s Toyota in Baltimore (www.jerrystoyota.com) and the experience is making me swear to the car gods that the next time I’m going to buy a horse. They’re eco-friendly, right? At 5pm I pull in to the dealership to check in. Right-Rear tire is flat, big gaping hole in the side-wall because yours truly [...]
Human Nature – is it worth protecting?
I’ve been involved in the “save the planet” debate for some time now, and it all seems to come back to the same question. Why bother? Human beings have yet to prove to me that they’re worth saving. They are stupid, short-sighted, bigoted, selfish, disgusting creatures and given their tendency to damage the environment around [...]
Music is everywhere…
There was a series of commercials that aired a few years ago, and for the life of me I can’t remember what they were selling, but the commercials were very memorable. A cacophany of sound slowly resolves itself into a beat and pseudo-melody. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbMDeoGqexI Something like this. If anyone knows where I can find something like [...]
