"Well, Isn't That Special?"

Image
  Oh, boy. Okay, you can do what you want, but y'all think this is normal!?  Katherine Krick is... Uh, let's see, what is she? She's a minister pastor prophet apostle demon slayer. She claims to have the supernatural ability to draw out Satan and exorcise him from your body. She was in the midst of a book signing when a young lady had a conniption fit, or what they call, thrashing. I'm not sure if she was an actual paying customer or part of the entertainment. It sure got a reaction. I'm going to assume those in line, felt it.  I once dated (briefly) in my younger days a man who was dealing with his own demons. He grew up surrounded by crazy people who went to the church where people start to write and speak in tongues. He was torn between what he told me was a lot of theatrics and he was embarrassed by it all. So he said. Soon after we broke up because all along he had been dating a female who belonged to his church and he was swept away after seeing her thrash an...

Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Image
  I don't know why this never occurred to me regarding the rise in emergency calls after a football game. After England lost to Argentina, calls to 999 rose 38%. Men who were drunk and angry took their frustration out on their partners and children. The Brits like to throw the word, "cunt," around a lot. It's not a word I like to use because here in America it's probably the most deragatory insult you can throw at a woman. So, the word really has little impact there because they call everyone a cunt. I guess the male species would be offended by the word, wanker. It doesn't matter because no word has been invented to describe who these deplorables are. I'm going to assume it's not just a British problem.* No, it's a male problem. Alcohol plays a factor. According to link above, the violence was only instigated by males who had been drinking. So by that you'd probably think well, it's the alcohol. Actually, it's the male who drinks at s...

Planning For The Big Test

Image
  Okay, I'm scared. I didn't watch the fat ass miscreant warn us that he intends to stop the elections in November. There is no denying this is their intention. So, what are our options? Do we have any besides burning down the country? He's got all the tools. An army to mow us down, thugs in masks, magats and white supremacists who are chomping at the bit to murder us with permission. I have not seen anyone say this can't happen. I've only see that he will do everything he can, laws will be broken, to remain in power because he knows what will happen if a blue wave hits. He's going to go to prison. Lawyers can file motions, judges can give directives, politicians can write strongly worded letters. That will not stop him.  The fact is, a test is about to begin. How far are you willing to go to stop Trump? Are you okay with living under his regime? He will declare martial law and have us shot if we try and vote.  As my MIL used to say, "Hope for the best, pre...

Odysseus, The Longest Damn Social Event Of The Season Written By Homer

Image
  Still more about the stupid movie that hasn't even come out yet but film critics have seen it and rave over it. Sadly, Elon Musk and I disagree with them, but thankfully for different reasons. He's just a racist pig. I am angry about the alleged changes Nolan has made regarding Odysseus and his moral compass. In the poem, he didn't have one. He slaughtered and raped and pillaged without remorse. In the movie, he is woke, so woke. He's a killer with a heart. The other thing is when he stays with the witch goddess, Circe who intends to drug Odysseus so that he will forget his wife and child, Hermes, the god of purses, is on to her so Odysseus doesn't get fooled. Yet, he still stayed for a year. He stayed with Calypso for seven, although, allegedly as a captive.  These might be minor changes to Nolan but that changes who Odysseus is altogether. He had no moral conscience. He didn't feel remorse or regret for murdering hundreds of people. That is a huge change bec...

Lying With Dogs

Image
  When my coworker Doris, decided to say yes to marrying her long time boyfriend she had set some ground rules before the nuptials, and even though Doris was a psychopath she was smart enough to let her future husband know where they stood. One- no dogs. This was good because I reiterate, Doris was nuts. She also refused to have a canoe as their bed. Again, smart. But sometimes y'all don't listen and think you can change a person's mind. Sometimes you can. Sometimes you wear them down so much it's not worth the fight.  I bring this up because I saw another problem for an advice columnist, this one about a dog. The female was adamant about NOT getting an animal. She claimed they were just too busy and even though she liked dogs she was not ready to get one. Her partner dismissed her objections and bought one anyway. As much as she has grown fond of the pup she feels resentment and rightfully so. She says she must be on her partner constantly to walk and feed the dog he w...

Numbers

  Greg Lake was 12 when he wrote, 'Lucky Man.' A woman spent 9 days in her bathtub after falling back and injuring herself.  It is now 923 days until Trump is walked out of the White House. This recipe for Mole Negro has 30 ingredients. Puck, the parrot, learned 1,500 words. There are over 100,000 people per square mile in Manila, Philippines.  There are 7.8 people per square mile in Montana, US. Shaquille O'Neal wears a size 22 shoe. There are only 2 white rhinoceros alive. Both are female. The minimum wage in Georgia is $5.15. Pediatric surgeons make $246 per hour.  The longest someone held their breath without pre oxygen assistance* is 11 minutes, 35 seconds. An Australian millipede has 1,306 legs. If Elon Musk spent $1 million dollars per day it would take over 2 centuries to spend it. The shortest recorded marriage was 3 minutes.** It would take 5.9 million steps to walk from Manhattan to Beverly Hills, Ca.  You will survive for roughly 10 minutes in 140°F...

The Charmer

  Whaaat? Ok, I don't listen to Trump because he makes me ill just looking at his pursed lips and hand movements. But- it's what comes out of his mouth that truly makes me heave, so I didn't realize he was a poet. Apparently his minions like to hear the tale of, 'The Snake.' Here it is 👇 Yeah, that's not the D H Lawrence poem, it's actually a song written by Al Wilson who I'm sure is turning in his grave for the way it's being used.  Oh who could Trump possibly mean to be the snake here? Commies, dumocrats, those cat and dog eating immigrants? Or, anyone who needs a helping hand most likely.  One- I'm shocked. I didn't know the orange man could read. Natalie must have picked this out for him.  The truly ironic bit to all of this is those people sitting behind him are farmers who take subsidies, working people who rely on SNAP food benefits, white collar business owners who get kickbacks and special favors from the government. Name me one per...
