Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – as expected christians and war mongering

As expected, christains are war mongering in their desperate need to pretend that their end times lies are coming true. They must claim that their god wants this pointless war and that it will come back as long as they murder people, including children.

What the Boss Likes – random things

So, we're supposed to have a ridiculous amount of snow here on Sunday. 12-18 inches or about a half a meter. And places south of us are to get lots and lots of ice, which will bring down trees, power lines, and show again how our infrastructure fails.
