We’ve got a basket. Into it goes all of the non-critical mail that isn’t junk that gets thrown away, but not stuff that we have to deal with right away. Once it starts to get full, I will go through the basket and file away everything that needs to get saved and then we start over again.
I realized, in doing so over the past couple of days, that there’s a ton of waste in that basket. Continue reading What a Waste!
I actually watch this guy, but this time, he’s just proven that politics is as much of a mind killer as religion is. This is a video that just came out from the channel Bridge the Divide, which yes, is a pretty decent channel most of the time, when he sticks to religion, yet he goes entirely off the rails here and proves that he, like a lot of hard-left atheists, are just hypocrites.
So let’s look at it. Continue reading More Left-Wing Hypocrisy!
I’m writing this on Friday, right after Thanksgiving, as my brother-in-law and best friend, who came for dinner and stayed the night, have now returned home. After he got there, my friend called me to talk and let me know he made it home safely, as apparently, my brother-in-law, who drove up, drives like a maniac.
So it got around to talking about his money problems, especially the fact that, he’s blaming his bank for not taking the mortgage money on time, and by the time they do, he’s already spent it.
Yeah, that’s not a good way to live life. Continue reading It’s All About Responsibility
I wasn’t going to respond to this at all and I think that by the end of this, you’ll understand why. Recently, Ayaan Hirsi Ali came out and claimed that she was a Christian, not for any good reason, not that I think she believes any of it, but by playing the part, she thinks she can achieve some political goals.
That, my friends, is just idiotic. Continue reading Why I Don’t Care About Ayaan Hirsi Ali
I ran across this today, where someone had posted the above question and I had an immediate reaction to it. Not that queer women (or anyone else) shouldn’t read science fiction, but what the hell difference does it make?
This goes places that no good discussion ought to go. Let’s talk about it. Continue reading Fiction Recommendations for Gay Women
I caught a video today by Chris Stuckmann on the future of film, at least his take. Now while I disagree with… most of it, but I figure I ought to talk about it because I think it is important, especially to show that people like Chris, who are entirely fanatical about movies, don’t really represent the actual issues facing modern day cinema.
So, there will be a link to the video below the fold if you want to watch it, but let’s get at it. Continue reading The Future of Film
So I got called in for jury duty. Actually, that happened back in August, but I was going to be away during the time I was supposed to go in so I put it off until early November. I called last night, to see if I had to appear and I had to, so early this morning, I drove off to the Superior Court for what was ultimately a giant waste of my time.
Here’s why. Continue reading Jury Duty is a Waste
Just another quick one, as I ran across it, but there are some people, quite a few in my opinion, who just have no business being in charge of anything. Ever. This is especially true of online public forums. We’ll get into the details below the fold, but if you can’t keep your personal opinions out of your moderation, sod off. Continue reading Some People Shouldn’t Be In Charge
This is just a really quick one, I saw this video of Arnold Schwarzenegger being interviewed on Howard Stern and, as many problems as I’ve had with Arnie over the years, he at least knows what the hell he’s talking about here.
Enjoy.
I ran into a thread on Reddit today, where they were talking about atheists who are conservative, because they couldn’t imagine how anyone who was intelligent, educated and non-religious could identify that way.
Well, once upon a time, I identified that way, at least in a limited fashion, so I read through it and found that it was mostly people who were talking out of their own asses.
Somehow, that is not at all surprising. Continue reading Why It’s Pointless to Argue Politics
