Ignorant Christianity

I spent 40 years as an active, devout Christian, even when there were things I questioned. And when I asked questions of church leaders, the answer was always “read your Bible.” I’m guessing they assumed I would find all of my answers as I read the entire Bible, but all it did was create moreContinue reading “Ignorant Christianity”

Best Pizza in the World

Trying to find good pizza in a small town is nearly impossible. A new pizza place opened up here and so with a few friends, we tried it out. Nothing to rave about and I was disappointed. In my entire life of 70 years, only three places have made what I consider the best pizzaContinue reading “Best Pizza in the World”

Trump Attention Whore

Why I’m Never Putting a Joe Biden Flag on My Truck “I was talking to a coworker today. (OK, well, technically I was arguing with an anonymous Twitter troll—but hey, work is work, right?) As Patriot45FreedomGuy launched a fierce barrage of 280-character word salad salvos at me about how disgraceful the Democrats are and what a heroContinue reading “Trump Attention Whore”

Health Care

Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement. The first patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and has a time booked for surgery the following week. The second sees his family doctor after waiting aContinue reading “Health Care”

Green Mile Movie Quote

“I’m tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I’m tired of never having a buddy to be with, to tell me where we’s going to, coming from or why. Mostly, I’m tired of people being ugly to each other. I’m tired of all the pain I feelContinue reading “Green Mile Movie Quote”

mohamad safa@mhdksafa Go to a cemetery. See all the baby graves there from before the 1950s & 1960s? Then, hardly any. That’s when people started vaccinating their kids.

Repost: TMI Tuesday: August 25, 2020: Sex & Religion

1. How important is religion in your life? At one time I was very devout Christian, but always searching for answers. I thought I had found them as a Catholic, but after 15 years I finally realized it wasn’t what I was looking for. I left the church and somehow found myself as a member ofContinue reading “Repost: TMI Tuesday: August 25, 2020: Sex & Religion”

TMI Tuesday – May 11, 2021: Rainy Day Dreams

1. Agree or Disagree with “Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.” Disagree. I love rainy days, the kind when it pours, not the Seattle drizzle. I’ve been retired for 20 years, so Mondays don’t affect me. One day is the same as all the rest. 2. What do you like to do onContinue reading “TMI Tuesday – May 11, 2021: Rainy Day Dreams”
