Easy to say … hard to do.  This video explains some very basic points about the nature of forgiveness that many of us have never encountered before.

Proof

Proof yeast

The archaic meaning of proof — to test — is also retained in the adage “the exception proves the rule.”  Since the archaic meaning for proof has fallen out of favor, the old adage sounds like nonsense and should probably be updated to “the exception challenges the rule.”

It Doesn’t Matter Anymore

In an optimistic and idealistic youth things always seemed to work out for the better. Dad always managed to pay the mortgage, Mom ironed your clothes and sometimes burned dinner. On TV, the good guys always won in the end, mysteries were solved and the only time the word ‘race’ came up was when somebody outran somebody else. The tax rate was 3%, you got a new car every 5 years or so and everybody liked Ike. It was during the Ozzie and Harriet/Leave It To Beaver phase of time that I grew up. I was 13 when JFK was assassinated, and I saw my granddad cry. I was 18 and a senior in high school when Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy were killed. It was the beginning of the drug culture and the sexual revolution. We were taught that protesting was cool, even if we had no idea what it was we were protesting, and cynicism was served with coffee and your morning paper. The pill allowed women to engage in high risk behavior without consequence when abortion was still frowned upon and mom worked outside the home and we were introduced to TV dinners and fast food more than once in a while.

The late and unlamented Lyndon Baines Johnson, an avowed racist, set the country on its downward spiral when his Great Society rewarded women for supplanting the man of the house with a government check and granted money for every child produced to perpetuate the dependence on the state. It took some time for the structure of our society to decay like a virus sometimes has a gestation period. Our moral fabric has been torn asunder. People of faith, high moral character and integrity are mocked, spat on, had our religious symbols, like crucifixes and prayer in school, even displaying the American flag, who many fought and suffered for while human filth can brazenly desecrate that banner and demand we grant special privileges to people who care nothing for the US, save what they can leech from it.

By now we’ve seen democrats, the party of lies, corruption and amoral lifestyle commit atrocities a conservative would be crucified for. From the drunken womanizer from Massachusetts, who let an innocent woman drown while he staggered home, to domestic terrorist and Obama buddy Bill Ayers, acquitted of bombing several buildings grinned and said “is this a great country or what?” then moved on to be a professor to warp young peoples’ minds to the glory of Communism.

Bill ‘Bent Penis’ Clinton raped a woman while attorney general of Arkansas and the media never questioned him about it. Two Nixon operatives botched a break-in of democrat headquarters at the Watergate Hotel and the media pressure led to Nixon resigning and two Washington Post reporters got lucky enough to find an informant and still wear their presidential scalp proudly. The IRS colluded with the Obama thugs to persecute conservative groups and the smug and arrogant criminals Lois Lerner and John Koskinen laughed at a congressional committee because they knew they were in no jeopardy. Barack Obama commits atrocities on a daily basis and Hillary Clinton is a lying, abrasive extortionist who will be swept to the presidency on a wave of fraud, illegal votes, and a conspiracy with GOP elites to keep their cushy jobs. The honest, God-loving, hard-working people have no voice anymore. Nothing much matters anymore.

The Palm Sunday Eve Post

Easter Sunday is eight days away.The day,as Christians we celebrate the resurrection of the one true God.It’s getting to be a rough road,what with the rise of Islam,Communism and liberals assaulting our values,our Faith,our very lives.There is no mention anywhere in the media about the wholesale slaughter that’s been going on in the middle East as Christians are being systematically wiped out.John ‘the Gigolo’ Kerry, after a long period of time has finally admitted that ISIS is committing genocide.How nice of him.
When I was driving a Medicare transport,I had an elderly black lady that I had to help into her home after her dialysis treatment.Above her mantle were pictures of her grandchildren,an image of Christ in the center and a portrait of Barack Obama right next to it.It is a sad fact that many blacks look at this soulless demon as their redeemer.Their ignorance and political idolatry will not allow them to see him for what he truly is.The maddening part is these people go to church weekly and proclaim love for God and their fellow man,yet they despise all things white except money.Rush once said that liberalism is their religion and abortion is their sacrament.
Christians love God so much they’re willing to die rather than deny their faith.Soldiers who are willing to risk death for what they believe hold the same kind of anathema to the godless,for they have no principles they would pay that kind of price for.Thats why democrats despise the military.They just don’t understand.They never will.

Annual Super Bowl Commercial Revue

In fill disclosure, we do not watch too much network television in the bunkhouse, so we haven’t seen any previews. However, with dogged determination I slogged through a number of them on youtube and picked just a few.
In 1971, a 30-second spot cost $42,000….. this year it’s about 5 million.

The first one is actually three 30-second spots. The first one is really cute.

NEVER MIND

Apparently WordPress has changed their formatting for creating posts. There is no longer an IMG button to insert images and there is no ‘add media’ feature to post pictures. Being as how I’m the least talented poster on this board it appears I can post no longer. Love to all.

OK, just tried again and it looks like the sites’ heavy flow days have passed. This format is as crappy as Windows 10 is.

THE RACE-NEUTRAL FRIDAY POST

Being politically correct for the last….five minutes.
Hope everybody had a great holiday. I missed dinner at SD’s and stayed home sick. DW brought home some leftovers and fixed me a turkey sammich with cranberries and pumpkin pie. It was awesome.

More than 30 million idiots gave thanks for all their blessings yesterday then went out and fought like ravening wolves over cheap electronics and kitchen appliances. Some 100 million more are expected today. I went by the Starbucks I deliver the New York Times to at 4:10 this morning. They open at 4:30. There were already 5 cars lined up at the drive-thru to pay six bucks for a cup of foam. We stay away from the crazies this time of year but DW has the patience to go to a mall, find a parking space and stand in a long checkout line. I have no patience whatsoever. None. Every bit of shopping I do (which isn’t very much) is done from right where I’m sitting now. You order it, pay for it and they send it right to your door. Piece of cake.

It’s WHACK Friday! Tempers fray at malls as shoppers come to blows amid Thanksgiving evening sales bonanza

NOTHING SAYS MERRY CHRISTMAS LIKE TWO PEOPLE BEATING THE SHIT OUT OF EACH OTHER

Black Friday Brawl: Lady Steals Veggie Steamer from Young Child, Fights Parent
DATELINE: SAGINAW,MICHIGAN


From the video:
I’m posting anonymous because I don’t want 2b fired, but I work at this store in saginaw and this lady stole a veggie steamer from a KID on black friday! Shame.

Have you ever seen so many people get so excited over veggie steamers?

I REMEMBER YEARS AGO WHEN IT WAS A REALLY BIG DEAL TO GO DOWN MICHIGAN AVENUE, CHICAGO’S MAGNIFICENT MILE. AND SEE ALL THE WINDOW DISPLAYS AND DECORATIONS. UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE NOW LIVING IN OBAMAWORLD.

Laquan McDonald/BlackLivesMatter Protesters Destroy Chicago Christmas Tree, Threaten Black Friday Shutdown
THE COP WHO SHOT LAQUAN HAS BEEN CHERGED WITH FIRST-DEGREE MURDER.THAT’S NOT ENOUGH FOR THESE ANIMALS.

Chicago was subjected to a second night of protests after the release of police dashcam video depicting the 2014 shooting of an African American teen, with protesters fanning out beyond the planned protests and even destroying Christmas tree decorations while yelling “black lives matter” and “F*ck your Christmas tree!”

Protesters are also threatening to shut down Black Friday shopping downtown.

THURSDAY AT THE MOVIES

Actually, they’re videos. I have a bunch of stuff bookmarked so I thought I’d post a few rather than delete everything. I have an appointment with a specialist this PM about eye surgery. Don’t know how it’s going to turn out. The doctor is from Pakistan or India. Probably a Muslim. Hope he doesn’t read this blog. That could prove awkward.

Ted Cruz Shoots, Kills A Pheasant
THIS IS REALLY NOT A BIG DEAL. THERE’S A SHOOTING CLUB JUST SOUTH OF WHERE I LIVE THAT HAS FARM-RAISED PHEASANTS. WHEN A HUNTING PARTY IS BOOKED, THEY BRING THE BIRDS OUT IN BOXES AND RELEASE THEM IN FRONT OF THE SHOOTERS. IF THEY MISS,THE BIRD GETS AWAY.
DON’T BLINK, IT’S ONLY THREE SECONDS. (THAT’S ABOUT THE AVERAGE TIME YOU CAN TALK TO A DEMOCRAT BEFORE THEY START THE NAME-CALLING)

I have been having a lot of trouble with sites that refuse to finish loading no matter how long I wait.  Sometimes they just hang up, but often they send an endless stream of “script error” messages.  Sometimes a site has proven so stubborn that I have been forced to crash my browser completely to close it. Sometimes, the problem crashes my internet connection for me.  All most annoying!

Today, I googled “stop script error” and found YesScript, a small, free, add-on that WORKS. It puts a little icon into the status bar. If a site is hanging, I can click on the icon and activate a “stop scripts” order for that site, and only that site. And doggone by golly gee whiz … it just worked on Twitchy!! It also has speeded up my Facebook load by a LOT.  Maybe now I can go to National Review and Breitbart too! Squee!
