Jackass quote of the month....
Unreal.
What a complete and utter jackass....
“I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out then under Democrat President Jimmy Carter. And I’m not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it is an interesting coincidence.” - Michelle Bachman
Thanks Michelle, once again, for proving there is no cure for stupid.

New CBS poll....
From a new poll at CBS.com
Watching the numbers change over the years.......
From Pam's House Blend....
What should same-sex couples get?
The cat is out of the bag. The younger generation REALLY doesn't get worked up over
who somebody decided to marry and be in love with. It will take time, but it's not hard to see where public opinion is going in regards to this issue.
Remember....the Bible was once used to justify slavery and denying women's rights as well.
Big fail on keeping those discriminatory ideologies in place.
The same will happen here. As well it should.
There is no Biblical justification for denying rights to gay people. None.
Anybody that says otherwise is, as my boss at work says, picking fly shit out of pepper.

Hell
As I'm walking into the door to work this morning, the maintenance man says "hope you brought your beach clothes". Seems the air conditioning is broke in this rather large old brick building. My office is, of course, located upstairs. No windows. No breeze. No air. No reprieve.
To say that it is hot and miserable in here would be a horrible understatement.
To make matters even more interesting, I decided to forgo sleep last night. Had a busy mind and a headache that kept me from slumber. So I just decided to stay up, drink coffee, and watch mindless sitcom television for hours on end.
This is going to be a Long Day.
Oh yeah, and if one more person says "hey it sure is hot in here", I think I'm going to beat them to death with a stapler.

Next thing you know they will want to vote too!
Jesus will weep!
The skies will open up!
Straight folks' marriages will fall apart!
Dogs and cats will be fornicating in the streets!
Children will grow up with no sense of right or wrong!
No....in all reality nothing will change. You will go on living your life the best way you can and see fit. This changes nothing.
Oh yeah, except for the fact that government discrimination against two people for being born a certain way has ended.
In Iowa at least.
There is still much work to do.
Gay couples begin seeking Iowa marriage licenses
By AMY LORENTZEN, Associated Press Writer Amy Lorentzen
DES MOINES, Iowa – Same-sex couples in Iowa began applying for marriage license on Monday after a state Supreme Court ruling legalizing gay unions took effect.
The court issued an order early in the day confirming that the appeals process in the case has officially concluded.
The first same-sex weddings could happen as soon as Monday if couples can secure waivers that will let them bypass Iowa's three-day waiting period.
In Des Moines, about a dozen gay and lesbian couples waited in the rain for the Polk County administrative building to open.
Grant Lan, 35, and his partner Andrew Mahoney-Lan, 32, were first in line. The Windsor Heights couple planned to seek a waiver that would let them marry Monday.
"It's huge to be here first," Mahoney-Lan said.
Alicia Zacher, 24, and her 22-year-old fiance Jessica Roach, both of Des Moines, said they have a 4 p.m. appointment to get married if they can get a waiver. They want to get married immediately after seeing how California voters reinstated a ban on same-sex marriage.
"You just never know when they'll try to take it away," Roach said.

Wonder what their AARP discounts were like....
I'm often asked why I poke fun at, or just outright laugh at the Bible.
This questions almost always from folks who THINK they have read it, but really have just had cute flowery passages read to them.
They haven't really dug into the dragons, unicorns, talking trees, and other completely mystical elements that make the Bible crazier than a sack of weasels.
Here's a nice chart found on the J-Walk Blog. . . .
