Conspiracy Theorist

13 Sep

This morning I fetched up behind a car with two bumper stickers:

9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB            BAN FLUORIDE

What fools these mortals be!

Send in the Clowns

21 Nov

OK, we have 306 million people in this country, at least half of whom are over 35, and this bunch is the best the Republican Party can find?

We have a loud mouth who stops just short of admitting he’s a Nazi (“You tell me”, he says.) who wants to shutter mosques and register Muslims, but says registering gun owners is “going too far, because the Constitution is very clear on that subject”. Is he aware that the Constitution also says “Congress shall make no law …prohibiting the free exercise (of religion)?

He may know his gun rights, but he isn’t all that familiar with the rest of the Constitution.

We have two woman who have won the right to pose for their driver’s license photo wearing a colander on their heads (Lindsay Miller, of Massachusetts, and Shawna Hammond, of Oklahoma), because they are members of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and he’s worried about a lady in a hijab.

And then we have a brain surgeon who is willing – eager! – to subject another race to the same indignities his own had to endure, and sees no irony in it.

What is wrong with these people?

Can we get George Takai to run? I’ll vote for him.

Security Problems

1 May

For the second time in about six months, somebody has yanked hard enough on the church doors to get them open, and set off the alarm. The Property Warden, a.k.a. The Squire is not happy.

A while back, some members of the church managed to open the doors so they could return some folding chairs they had borrowed. Today, The Squire found a card from Baltimore Gas and Electric, saying that they had come by to switch the church to a smart meter, and “the customer was not at home”.

First of all, what idiot expects a church office to be open at 5:30 in the evening? And second, this thing could have been hung over the door handle – there’s a hole in the card for exactly that purpose – without pulling the doors off the hinges.

Aaargh!
