Unsurprisingly, we have yet ONE MORE investigation that shows that the Roman Catholic Church has aided and abetted the rape and abuse of children. This is now in the diocese about an hour’s drive from the state capitol Harrisburg. There are many excuses given for the church, that it isn’t at fault. The church has … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – yep, one more abuse scandal – here in PA
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – breaking an oath
It seems that the Republicans in the Senate only want to pay attention to the US Constitution when convenient for them. To refuse to accept a nominee from the US President just because they don't like it is very unconstitutional. They are refusing do to the job they swore to do. It's pretty damn amusing when they do … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – breaking an oath
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation: an excellent essay on why a new atheist has come to the correct conclusion, written by a TrueChristian
A Christian that I have had a chance to cross swords with, Lyle Duell, has written one of the best essays on why a new atheist has made the right decision. This is, of course, rather inadvertently on his part, or at least I suspect so. Once upon a time, one could comment on Mr. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation: an excellent essay on why a new atheist has come to the correct conclusion, written by a TrueChristian
Not So Polite Conversation – when deities have a hard time of it
The Christian god has had a rough couple of weeks in here in the US. Its hand picked candidates who were told that they would win the presidency have dropped out, leaving more handpicked ones behind. Santorum, Huckabee, Fiorina, etc were such fantastic examples of lying Christians, I’m sorry to see them leave. And, then, … Continue reading Not So Polite Conversation – when deities have a hard time of it
What the Boss Likes – John Fetterman, hopefully my next Senator
John Fetterman is mayor of Braddock, a mill town near Pittsburgh, PA. It suffered awfully when the steel mills ended in many towns here in the northeast. Mr. Fetterman has been doing wonders for it, but it's a tough row to hoe. He's running for the US Senate. Support him if you can. He also … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – John Fetterman, hopefully my next Senator
What the Boss Likes – telling it like it is, Neil deGrasse Tyson stands against stupidity and ignorance
This needs spread far and wide. One should always counter ignorance and stupidity. It's up to all of us. Neil deGrasse Tyson just does it better than most. 🙂
From the Kitchen and Bar – I have committed a culinary sin….and it was goooood
A week after Snowzilla and we still have about a foot of snow still on the ground. I’ve been tossing out old bread and stale snacks for the local crows, squirrels and little birdies since they have little to eat. Yesterday we had a huge number of crows in the neighborhood. There must have been … Continue reading From the Kitchen and Bar – I have committed a culinary sin….and it was goooood
What the Boss Likes – Snowzilla, and a couple of pics from last summer
Update: The aftermath. Husband is digging out the bug. Here I am sitting in the belly of Snowzilla, the current nor'easter battering the east coast of the US. We have about 12 inches of snow (30.5 cm for you who have a sensible measurement system), and we still have around 10 hours of snow … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Snowzilla, and a couple of pics from last summer
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Smells worse than a wet wookie – spoiler alert
Just got back from The Force Awakens. We’d waited a bit to see the movie since we don’t like crowds. Alas, that didn’t help in this instance, the theatre was near full on a Monday afternoon (a US holiday). I do wish I had waited longer. It stunk like a dianoga. Spoilers are below. Yes, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Smells worse than a wet wookie – spoiler alert
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Marvel-ous morality
I've been having some discussions with Christians on morality. They certainly are sure that their morality and only theirs is divinely approved. This chunk of comic (when Beta Ray Bill was wielding Mjolnir, aka Meow-Meow, in the Thor comics), is a good antidote to such nonsense. And found Thor's Hammer kittens on etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/168518362/mew-mew-mjolnir-kitty-small?ref=shop_home_active_4 Far … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Marvel-ous morality
