Adam Loves Steve
Recently someone put forth the following argument supporting the idea that government should legislate who we may and may not marry: "Hey," they said, "god created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!" Doesn't that mean that god also created incest?
It Comes In A Bottle?!
Good news everyone! I recently discovered that Utica Club comes in bottles! Woo Hoo! Classy!
Comebacks You Thought of Later Dept.
Recently someone showed me a cell phone with a picture of a cardboard box with a stick propping it up. Tied to the stick was a string, and under the box was a watermelon. The person asked me "Hey, what do you think this is?". Thinking back on it now, I should have answered "A racist's cellphone?"
Wait A Minute.....?!?! Dept.
It strikes me that often the racists that I encounter are also very religious. I find this ironic, considering that when asked what his most essential take-away point was, Christ is reported to have said the following: [something about honoring god above all else] and (Mark 12:31) And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these Wait a minute......?!?!
Hmmmm......
The discussion about the war in Iraq reminds me of trying to decide whether to take the knife in your chest out or leave it in.
Happy Columbus Day!
After three months of battling the United States 7th Calvary - which is charged with moving his people to a distant reservation or killing them - and a 1,700-mile trek toward Canada, Nez Perce chief Joseph surrenders, October 5th, 1877. "From where the sun now stands I shall fight no more forever," he is said to have proclaimed; his people are shipped to Kansas, far from their Oregon home. In 1879, Joseph goes to Washington, D.C. to plead the Nez Perce case, without success. He dies in 1884. [source: Smithsonian magazine, Oct. 07]

Morning Edition, April 16, 2007 (NPR)
In case you missed it, a Swiss watchmaker is selling timepieces allegedly made from steel salvaged from the Titanic. How do you top that? You might rush off to Paris, where Christie's is about to auction the skeleton of a prehistoric mammoth. Bidding starts at $200,000. But just think how it would look once you get it set up in your garage!
