A cunning plan, but I still don’t fancy his chances ..

Canadian Tar Sands

Another one from my evolving angry days.

My first day of Confirmation class
and the only question that day to the pastor,
“Where did God come from?”
His reply,
“That is a bad question”,
and muttered some reason why.
I sat there among the four,
and felt quite embarrassed.

During those moments,
I was indeed alienated from the good,
and over the years the harder I pushed to be like them,
the more resistance I received,
from within.

To all the potters over time who have pressed me with your thumbs,
I thank you!
Your impressions have left me able to catch the slightest of winds,
which form the smallest of pools,
and given a home to the most poisonous of spiders.

The Real Cost of Rodeo ‘Entertainment’ - The Horses

Found this on Tumblr.  “Members of the Minnesota Vikings offense — John Henderson (80), Jim Vellone (63), John Beasley (87), Gene Washington (84), and Ron Yary (73) — try and stay warm during the 1969 NFL Championship game against the Cleveland Browns. The Vikings would go onto win 27-7 to capture the NFL title before losing to the Chiefs in Super Bowl IV. This was the last Super Bowl before the NFL-AFL merger. (Neil Leifer/SI)” This was back when the Vikings took pride on their on field activities instead of their off field activities. When I was living in Carolina and a big Redskin fan, the Vikings were the most feared of any team in the NFC. That was back when they had Tarkenton and Fred Cox who would often hit a game winner. Now a lot of the Vikings are criminal offenders who hire prostitutes, beat up their spouses, nearly kill a man recently at a party, Randy Moss..nuff said, on and on. The oldies were goodies. I wished this team would have went to LA, but instead our tax dollars will subsidize a stadium where corporations are most usually the ones who buy tickets while kids 18+ make 8$ an hour at the stadium and hotels. All the while with politicians telling us the Vikings are a must for our economy. pfft f-em

Headin’ down south to the land of the pines..

and the NYPD bought and paid for courtesy of J.P. Morgan.  Is that where the 2 million went?  I know there are some good police, some great ones who put their lives on the line for us.  But also, there are some bad ones. Thanks to Liveleaks and Youtube they are being exposed.

Met Phil today at a bus stop in Minneapolis. He was a drummer for White Zombie. He had some great stories. I saw White Zombie twice and Rob a couple of times. White Zombie was much better than Rob imho. Phil started the band Gription years ago, left, and now is back.

Ever since her incredible Grammy performance I have new respect for Taylor. I like the way she’s evolving. She has some things to say, and is now doing it very well.

ENTITLEMENTS?

Pacquiao’s directive for Obama calls societies to fear God and not to promote sin, inclusive of same-sex marriage and cohabitation, notwithstanding what Leviticus 20:13 has been pointing all along: “If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.”

I guess nobody’s informed this chap that Leviticus means something other than what it actually says…

Actually, Leviticus 18:22 is (a) only about men, (b) only about anal sex (mishkevei ishah in Hebrew), (c) actually only about male anal sex in the context of idolatry (toevah in Hebrew, mistranslated as “abomination” in English; see Deuteronomy 23:18 for the connection between male eroticism and Canaanite religion), and (d) of no relevance to Christians who have set aside the Old Testament’s ritual law.

So there. As long as they’re not having anal sex thousands of years ago while being idolatrous, they’re in the clear!
