Kids and the Bible

and god created kids ..

We all get e-mailed stuff in all Caps.  In the instance where I want to forward it, I uncap the text  because I hate it.  I used to just retype, but no more. Convert A String To Uppercase / Lowercase You're welcome.  Now, this delight from Merrily. Pay special attention to the wording and spelling. if you are even remotely familiar with holy scripture, you'll find this hilarious! it comes from a roman catholic elementary school test. kids were asked questions about the old and new testaments. the following statements about the bible were written by children. they have not been retouched or corrected. incorrect spelling has been left in. 1. In the first book of the bible, guinessis. god got tired of creating the world so he took the sabbath off. 2. adam and eve were created from an apple tree. noah's wife was joan of ark. noah built and ark and the animals came on in pears. 3. lots wife was a pillar of salt during the day, but a ball of fire during the night. 4. the jews were a proud people and throughout history they had trouble with unsympathetic genitals. 5.sampson was a strongman who let himself be led astray by a jezebel like delilah. 6.samson slayed the philistines with the axe of the apostles. 7. moses led the jews to the red sea where they made unleavened bread which is bread without any ingredients. 8.the egyptians were all drowned in the dessert. after wards, moses went up to mount cyanide to get the ten commandments. 9. the first commandments was when eve told adam to eat the apple. 10.the seventh commandment is thou shalt not admit adultery. 11. moses died before he ever reached canada.. then joshua led the hebrews in the battle of geritol. 12.  the greatest miricle in the bible is when joshua told his son to stand still and he obeyed him. 13. david was a hebrew king who was skilled at playing the liar. he fought the finkelsteins, a race of people who lived in biblical times. 14. solomon, one of davids sons, had 300 wives and 700 porcupines. 15. when mary heard she was the mother of jesus, she sang the magna carta. 16. when the three wise guys from the east side arrived they found jesus in the manager. 17. jesus was born because mary had an immaculate contraption. 18. st. john the blacksmith dumped water on his head. 19. jesus enunciated the golden rule, which says to do unto others before they do one to you. he also explained a man doth not live by sweat alone.. 20. it was a miricle when jesus rose from the dead and managed to get the tombstone off the entrance. 21. the people who followed the lord were called the 12 decibels. 22. the epistels were the wives of the apostles. 23. one of the oppossums was st. matthew who was also a taximan. 24. st. paul cavorted to christianity, he preached holy acrimony which is another name for marraige. 25. christians have only one spouse . this is called monotony

The SEALS

The Good,

“ It would be interesting to create a poll with these two photos and have people guess what's happening. I suspect that most would never assume anything close to the real story. It appears to be a joyous homecoming, a reuniting of mother and son. The truth is not so heart warming. The lady in the picture is the mother of an American that was ambushed in Fallujah , Iraq. Her son was murdered. His body was dragged around in the streets of the city, then burned and hung from the upper trusses of a bridge. The murderers gathered to celebrate and have their photos taken with the trophy. The young sailor in the picture is one of the Navy SEALs that later captured the leader of the band of terrorist butchers and brought him to justice. If the story ended there, it would still be an acceptable feel-good, good-guys-win story. Unfortunately, that's not the case - this Navy SEAL is facing criminal charges. The Bad Because, somewhere along the timeline of his capture, the terrorist murderer suffered a school-yard fat lip, his captors are now being charged with nothing short of war crimes and facing discharge and imprisonment. So, instead of celebration of justice served and heroes honored, these photos record betrayal, compounded mourning and the effects of a corrupting sickness. ” The Barn Army's R.W. Forsythe forwarded this in an e-mail; I found the entire text here.  I figure most of you are aware of this case - it's not the sort of thing you forget.   Today the WaTimes editorializes, "You're for the SEALs, or you're for the terrorists."  It's black & white.  You're either disgusted by this, or you're someone who's dead to me.

Tiger Text

POOF!

Text messages that don't live forever

* sender sets text lifespan     * expired texts are deleted from both users' phones     * try for free now I don't text message because I don't cell phone,  but you prolly do.  I heard this guy on Jay Thomas's show Wednesday, and brain marked it.  Here's the deal with Tiger Text.  With this app (free for now) you can determine how long your text lives. At the expiration time, the text disappears from your phone, the receiving phone, and the server that handled it.  Coming soon, the same deal for photos. Jay asked  if this was possible: I send a picture of my penis to a coworker, and when she goes running to the cops, the "evidence" has disappeared.  Can that happen?  Answer: yes.  Lots of ramifications here.

Dear RKOF

“ I like your site because you seem to always look on the sunny side of things.  It seems this week that everything I see and read indicates that our government leaders, and especially Obama, are not just derelict, but criminally so, in just about everything they do.  Please give me something to perk me up.  I know that no Administration can be as bad as this one appears to be. (PS I hit your tip-jar with $500). I think I love you. Pat ”

Commentary on the Culture

Nobody here would call me a prude. Right? I just came across this picture , which reminded me of the jaw dropper Daily Show segment on the right (Feb 2).  I think it's unfortunate that the culture has reached this point (both venues attract children), but will titillate you with them anyway. So, we can say that .. I am not a prude I am not a Libertine.  I want my cake and eat it too.  I am culturally in tune, or a hep cat in the modern vernacular.

I was so wound up last night after watching hoops that I couldn't sleep.  So what did I do?  I looked at Drudge. “ Obama names brother of undecided House Dem to Appeals Court... 'Whatever it takes to get healthcare done,' said Press Secretary Robert Gibbs... PUSH. PUSH HARDER. PUSH FASTER. Senator: White House land grab; Proposal to seize land would favor animals over Americans... ” I spent an hour doing the Barack Blofeld  PS (previous post), and was able to sleep some.    I hate now to risk my reputation for extreme political gravitas by quoting Eric Cartman, but - must. get. this out. of my. head. I hate this man. I hate him so very, very much. In other news.
