Unsuprisingly, Pat Robertson is now creating excuses for why he lied about his god telling him who was going to win the presidential election. Poor Pat, I knew this would happen. "So many of us miss God. I won't get into great detail about elections but I sure did miss it. I thought I … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Pat Robertson’s excuses on why he got it wrong

What the Boss Likes – Third Rock Radio

I highly recommend that you check it out. http://www.rfcmedia.com/thirdrockradio/ Yes, they do call it American's Space Station 🙂 It does start playing as soon as you land on the page and a little loudly. Be warned you folks at … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Third Rock Radio
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Secession! and a smidgen of geology
Isn’t “pout-rage” such a great word? It fits just about anyone who takes a fit when something doesn’t go their way, from three-year olds, to theocrats who can’t watch women’s vaginas when they want to. One of the best examples of this pout-rage is the calls for secession from the United States of America. Poor … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Secession! and a smidgen of geology
From the Kitchen – Thanksgiving – Starch for all! My ramblings, tips and recipes for Turkey Day.
Having grown up in western PA, Thanksgiving means eating a lot and a lot of that being starch. Stuffing aka dressing, mashed potatoes, homemade noodles (of course on top of the mashed potatoes with plenty of gravy), rolls, and of course various desserts. Pie for me, thank you! Or maybe a piece of that pumpkin … Continue reading From the Kitchen – Thanksgiving – Starch for all! My ramblings, tips and recipes for Turkey Day.
Not Polite Dinner Conversation –Some fun with 1 Corinthians!
(yes, the entire blogosphere seems to be doing a post about Huckabee on The Daily show. It gives me a reason to address specific parts of the bible, so I’m getting my own licks in) Jon Stewart of The Daily Show did an excellent job at showing how Mike Huckabee is quite a liar or simply … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation –Some fun with 1 Corinthians!
From The Bar – Beer for dessert
Catching up to their competitor, the supermarket chain, Giant, has begun offering beer. It’s only one location so far and it is a threat to my pocketbook since that one location is the store that we go to for our weekly shopping. It’ll definitely take some self-control to not buy a mixed six pack or … Continue reading From The Bar – Beer for dessert
What the Boss Likes – Big Trouble in Little China and Lo Pan Style!
Urban fantasy was around long before your local vampire was at the minimart. In 1986, Big Trouble in Little China brought Chinese mythology into modern Chinatown. It also brought along a trucker who, though a mite clueless, was a good guy. It's pulp and wonderful pulp at that. Would have loved to see another one … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Big Trouble in Little China and Lo Pan Style!
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – Anyone remember Robertson’s claims about God telling him who will be president?
Well, I didn't get one of my prophecies right. Obama won pretty handily. However, I hit it on the nose about the claims of TrueChristians about how the end times are a comin! Franklin Graham, following right in the footsteps of his failed prophet father Billy, has this to say: "I want to warn America: … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation – Anyone remember Robertson’s claims about God telling him who will be president?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Excuses Excuses
A sigh of relief on this end. At least a little reprieve from lunatics who want to have a theocracy. We can take more steps on keeping the US a beacon of freedom and equality for *all*, not a self-chosen few. Now, Obama, you've done a lot but you still have more to do. Close … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Excuses Excuses
What the Boss Likes – My own set of predictions
Hey, we have prophets from all sides, so why not an atheist. My predictions: Obama will win. Barely. The evangelical, aka Protestant-type, Christians will take a fit and declare that they were “Duped, duped!” by a Mormon and a Roman Catholic. There will be much made about 2012 and the end of the world. We'll … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – My own set of predictions
