(warning: a few movie spoilers appear at the end for Iron Man 3 and The Winter Soldier. You have been warned) Having no good ideas for a big meal to make for the weekend (and little time to do so with a retail schedule), we decided to get the stuff to make some quick meals. … Continue reading From the kitchen – some tasty entrees and a small rant about a movie

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Religion and guns, and the concordant stupidity
Good to know that people in Georgia are so scared of everything, or need a replacement phallus 🙂 , that they need to have their guns on them at all times, even in church. Hmmm, if one is to believe in the Christians claim that their god protects them, then carrying a gun is nonsense … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Religion and guns, and the concordant stupidity
What the Boss Likes – Captain America: The Winter Soldier and a few more beers
First off, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is great. I always am shy about seeing what amount to “second act” movies, where everything goes to hell to set up for the big win at the end. But this was good the whole way through, with enough little victories to keep things going. It was one … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Captain America: The Winter Soldier and a few more beers
From the Bar – three DuClaw beers
The beer reviews for this week are for a trio of chocolate flavored beers. I’ve a taste for DuClaw Brewing Company’s beers. The three this week are: Cocoa Fuego – This beer, being “chocolate fire”, is a bit of a disappointment. It called a stout but I find it has more the mouth feel of … Continue reading From the Bar – three DuClaw beers
Not So Polite Conversation – when thievery is a “right” and a Republican/Teaocrat is horrified that he’s asked to show ID
Here in the US, we have a system where there are public lands held in trust for the American people by our government. It keeps some of our environment relatively untouched so we won’t lose everything to the greedy and ignorant, who will trash one piece of land and simply move onto another one. Some … Continue reading Not So Polite Conversation – when thievery is a “right” and a Republican/Teaocrat is horrified that he’s asked to show ID
God killed innocent children
And this sums up what the celebration of Passover entails, the intentional murder of people, and animals, who had no control over their leader so that a god can show off.
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “The Bible Rules” episode 2, Sex
Many apologies for not being around much for the last couple of weeks. I have a full-time job now and I have yet to get my schedule situated to allow for posting to this blog as I would like. I’m a couple of episodes behind in watching “The Bible Rules”. The most recent one I’ve … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “The Bible Rules” episode 2, Sex
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A review of the Noah movie trailer. Oh my, the silliness and this is only a few minutes of an hours long movie.
Haven’t seen the movie yet probably won’t, because I have no desire to add to the box office hits for this stinker. But I thought I’d take a look at the trailer and the movie website. I do enjoy showing how ridiculous the flood myth is, and have done so multiple times on this blog. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A review of the Noah movie trailer.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Cue uncomfortable smiles, History Channel 2’s new series “The Bible Rules”
I had the opportunity to watch “The Bible Rules” a new series on the History Channel 2. This is about the lesser known bits of the bible, the parts that many Christians and Jews have no idea exist since most of their leaders will judiciously ignore them in favor of the happy fuzzy parts. It’s … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Cue uncomfortable smiles, History Channel 2’s new series “The Bible Rules”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Science can’t explain how imaginary things work, therefore gods exist, a review of a God Squad column
In this past week’s God Squad column, Rabbi Gellman addresses “intelligent design”, the term invented by creationists to hide the religious origin and source for their attempts to have their myths taught in the classroom as the truth. (note: the column in my paper was severely chopped in comparison to the one in the link) … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Science can’t explain how imaginary things work, therefore gods exist, a review of a God Squad column
