"Dr." Tiller

Today a murderer was murdered. "Dr." Tiller was shot while ushering at his church.

My heart goes out to his family, his church, his community.

I don't condone anyone shooting anyone.

But here are my thoughts.

1) The man who shot Tiller deserves to be punished.

2) I put Dr. in quotation marks because anyone who would kill a baby is not a doctor in my opinion.

3) "Dr." Tiller will now face God's judgment for all the children he murdered.

Technology

Ok, not technology, just tech stuff in this house. I worked on some documents on my laptop and sent them to the printer in the den. I went about my business, making lunch for the kids, sending them to the bathroom, sending them to bed.

Then I went into the den to get my papers. Nothing printed. I tried to reset the printer, but there were no lights on in the front. I turned it on and off. Nothing. I hit the reset. Nothing. I made sure the printer was connected to the hard drive on the desktop computer. Nothing. Grrrrr. By this time, I was ready to pound on the thing. And then I noticed it was not plugged in. No biggie, right? Wrong.

There were no empty spaces on the power strip. I was NOT going to sit there and try to figure out where all those cords were going. My husband will HAVE to fix this as soon as he gets home so I can print before I leave. AAAArrrrgggghhhh. Oh, and now I have a nice "gash" across the front of my leg from making my way to the power strip. Nice.

That the term "Christianity"

is used by Catholics. Society doesn't see any distinction. Whenever FOX has an expert on religion, they bring on a "Father". I was just reading a blog that I follow, and she directed us to an article on decision-making. I started reading the post when I read the little bio off to the side about the author's conversion to Christianity. And she shared why she is a Catholic. Ugggh.

That was a wasted link-follow. Now I'm rethinking following the original blog.

The Double Standard is so

Blatant

Wrong

Aggravating

Sickening


If a GOP Senate Majority leader lied on prime time TV, and accused the CIA of lying to Congress, that person would be crucified 9 ways by Saturday.


But the Dems do not want to pursue the truth, because the accusation was made by Ms. Pelosi. It HAS to be a GOP attack stunt.
Huh?

Can you imagine?

Can you imagine the blowback white people would experience if they publicly stated they were only going to shop at stores owned by white people?

How on earth is it ok for one "color" of people to say it and not another? I think it's one thing to shop in your neighborhood versus online or versus traveling to a city. But to say that you will only purchase any item from someone of your own "race" is ridiculous. Shouldn't the real issue be purchasing items that are made in the USA?

That's a whole other rant, isn't it.

The Post Turtle

Ok - so this doesn't make me mad so much, but I thought it was more appropriate here.

A doctor struck up a conversation with a hard-working 75 year old rancher while suturing a mean cut on the old man's leathery hand. Eventually the topic got around to Obama.

The old rancher said, "Well, you know, Obama is a 'post turtle.'"Unfamiliar with the term, the doctor asked him what he meant.

The old rancher replied, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle.'"


The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued: "You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, and he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, and you just wonder what kind of complete moron put him up there to begin with."

A Joke is a Joke is a Joke

Apparently, it's ok for a black, gay woman to make an improper joke, but not a white man. What's up with that? If a joke is not funny, it's not funny no matter who the person telling it is or who the people mentioned are.

If it's not funny to joke about a Democrat's demise, it's not funny to joke about a Republican's demise.

Someone needs to tell the president that it's not funny to laugh - especially in public - at improper jokes.
