What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs!

As the title says, we got really cool upholstered chairs.   Some background on this,  my husband's parents once did upholstery.  And when my mother in law was dying from colon cancer, she asked what we would like.  We got a pair of decrepit chairs that my husband loved because they were so comfortable, and a … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – we got really cool upholstered chairs! →

What the Boss Likes – a vigilant Amazon.com: always remember to change your passwords often

well, my amazon account got hacked somehow.   But thanks to the friendly folks at amazon, it was caught.  Now, it's just pure stupid to hack amazon since if you want something other than an electronic document or mp3, you need to put your address in. The address used was to an international courier place:  Aramex … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – a vigilant Amazon.com: always remember to change your passwords often →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a response to Dale re: prayer and free will

(10/20/2016 - I've had a lot of Christians follow recently and like this post, as well as other posts about how religion fails.  Not sure why this is, but I'm more than happy to see people approve and agree with my posts.)

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and one more instance of Christians telling just a little lie, Franklin Graham

Franklin Graham,  the son of Billy Graham, famous American Christian evangelist, was in Harrisburg today.   It was part of his tour insisting that one needs to pray for America.  He didn't endorse a candidate, but it's not hard to know who he wants to win, mostly because he has said it himself despites the claims … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and one more instance of Christians telling just a little lie, Franklin Graham →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – AU blog post “Texas Theocrat Says Voting For Trump Is OK Because God Has ‘A Different Standard’”

Amazing the excuses that some Christians will use. "David Barton, the Religious Right’s favorite phony historian, is trying to sell his base on voting for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. But where most of Barton’s allies have resorted to pumping up Trump by dumping on Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, Barton acknowledges Trump’s flaws – … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – AU blog post “Texas Theocrat Says Voting For Trump Is OK Because God Has ‘A Different Standard’” →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – American “values” and Trump’s usual idiocy

"We should only admit in this country those who share our values and respect our people.  Trump added, "The time is overdue to develop a new screening test." (all quotes from this site).
