Peace
This is a picture of me and Cindy Sheehan. It was taken this past Tuesday at the event I went to in Kalamazoo. There were several speakers, and Cindy Sheehan spoke last. One of my favorite speakers was a young man who actually wasn’t originally scheduled to speak. Derek was 25 years old, had served in […]

Peace, Life, Truth
I’m kind of excited–tonight I am going to hear Cindy Sheehan speak in Kalamazoo. Here is a person who has endured tremendous personal loss, yet has had the courage and the energy to speak out about against something she feels is wrong (and many others feel that way too).
I watched a short interview with her […]

Osama’s Bin Filming
Well folks, the long-awaited blockbuster is here! The newest episode of the “Bin Laden Diaries: Thoughts From A Cave” is now showing! If you liked “Death to America” and “Death to the West”, you’ll love “Death to the Anti-Muslim Zionist Crusaders”! Now on VHS.
Yes, another tape. You know, for sitting in a cave all day hiding, […]

A Few of My Favorite Things
…Truth and sarcasm.
“I mean, think about it. Other than the war in Iraq, the Katrina disaster, the deficit, the CIA leak, torture, stopping stem cell research, homeland security, global warming and undercutting science, we’ve yet to really feel the negative effects of the Bush administration.”
–Bill Maher (See the full rant here)
Now thoughts from me
Think it […]

First Time For Everything
Today is the 100th anniversary of the San Francisco earthquake. You can find some interesting stuff about it on MSNBC (click on the link in the sidebar to go there).
This got me thinking. At some point in history, some earthquake was THE first earthquake ever. Some hurricane was THE first hurricane ever. Some volcano was […]

Playtahfucious Says
A hungry fox and a yapping puppy once approached a hen guarding her eggs. The fox was dangerous, but the yapping puppy annoyed the hen more, so she got up and chased away the puppy, leaving the fox free to steal her eggs.
Apply that where you may.

Oops! My Bad!
To all the ones who want to find
A scapegoat they can blame
For all the troubles in the world:
I offer you my name.
I have to get this off my chest
(My conscience is at stake)
You see, most of the news today
Is really my mistake.
A year ago, when I was sick,
I kissed a couple ducks,
And now we have […]

Would You Like French Strikes With That? (And Other News)
-Looks like there are strikes again in France over the labor law.
When I think of French strikes, I think of mimes and romance aficionados throwing smoked cheese at historic landmarks by candlelight.
-Tom Delay is finally resigning.
It’s about time. Did he just realize that dishonesty, greed, stealing, conspiracy, and illegal money management was not good politics? […]

Coexist
I like Bono. (He’s the frontman for U2, and is known for his humanitarian endeavors, especially regarding Africa.) Sometimes when he’s performing, Bono puts a blindfold on. This blindfold says “Coexist”, and has the Islamic crescent for the “c”, the Jewish Star of David for the “x”, and the Cross for the “t”. It’s a great reminder that we need […]
