I feel like a dying breed, like I'm the last one that possesses common sense, altruism, and the last to have a moral compass that isn't shoved so far up their butt that they can pick their nose with it. Do I know what that means, no, but it's a great visual! In a world where insanity is what's sane, the only way to stay sane is to become insane. Again, do I know what that means, nope, but it sounds great doesn't it. It should be on a shirt.Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08763267665487468242noreply@blogger.comBlogger171100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128059.post-1152933226329118182006-07-14T22:07:00.000-05:002006-09-16T18:40:22.363-05:00

Damn, I hate getting my hair cut. I try to get it cut as infrequent as possible. I hate spending the money, I usually wear a hat anyways, and I just hate the whole experience.The pain starts right when you walk through the door. Apparently, it's not enough to walk in, ask for a haircut and wait your turn. They require name, address, phone number, blood type. Jeez, I have to give less

Sorry for not posting sooner. Truth is, for a while there I was working 7 days a week, some double shifts even. Plus, I found me a superb woman that makes me happier then I've ever been. That mood is quite a hindrance when it comes to writing angry rants, but I'll see what I can do.The idiots on Capitol Hill are debating violence in video games again. I can't help but roll my eyes at that. I mean

The Dixie Chicks have come out with a new single and video, titled "Not Ready To Make Nice". On watching the video, any idiot will see the references to oil, and the huff that happened when they stood up against George Bush and the war.This rant is going to be a two pronged attack!First off, it infuriates me to no end when people like The Dixie Chicks use their fame, their microphones, to speak

One thing I have heard over and over, and always it just didn't sit right. When bad things happen, people ask, quite naturally, Why God? Why does a being of infinite power and knowledge let bad things happen to good people? It's a valid question and a valid viewpoint too, but what is the answer?The overdressed and overeducated religious elite might have answer in this vein: We can't know God's

Yea, it's been a while, but life has been decent to me as of late. It is quite difficult to "rant" when you are in a decent mood!Presidents Bush's approval rating is tanking, and there are some legitimate and real reasons for this. However, at the same time, some of it is unjust, in my view. One part, I think people underestimate just how powerful, and even more importantly, just how biased the

I was watching VH1 at 4am-ish, because well, lets face it at 4 am there is only music videos, and infomercials. I am noticing more and more nowadays how incredibly polluted music has become. It seems to be mainly from hip hop and rap music. Now I am not speaking about a difference in tastes, just the sheer volume of vocals and instruments. To the point where you can no longer hear what any one

A few years ago, Spaceship One flew into the record books. Now, parcels of land are being made into private spaceports. More and more private industry is getting into the door of space flight.Don't get me wrong, that's awesome. But I'm getting sick of the media portraying space flight as something that's going to be common in a few years. By the vision they give us, half of us will be visiting

I love America, this is my country, and in my mind, the greatest of all countries.However, we are not living up to your promises, our potential. We could be a beacon of hope and light to all the world, but more and more, we are shooting ourselves in the foot. Instead of building a nation that will stand for hundreds if not thousands, of years from now, I don't believe America will last much

If you watch the History Channel, or the Discovery Channel as I do, eventually you come across a show that takes a look back at the Bible. These shows have "experts" comment on the events and people of the Bible.In and of itself, that is not a bad thing. Here is my beef. They come up with logical or pseudo-scientific guesses at what "really" happened. I have heard of many over the years, so some

Lately, the issue of mercy killing has been bugging me.It started with the Terry Schivo case. Before that, I think I was against assisted suicide and such, like a lot of people I think I relegated it to the domain of God to decide when someone dies. Now, I am unsure, maybe ranting and raving will clear my mind.The thing that bothers me is, Terry Shivo died, and the doctors helped her die. Let's

While I don't ever profess to be wise. I do spend a good amount of time thinking, probably too much time. I am a big fan of proverbs, little bundles of verse that pack a whole lifetime's worth of wisdom. I have come up with some of my own in my short time on earth. Maybe they will serve you as they have me.- Never look so intently on your goal as to not see the obstacles that block you. Never

I had entered a Christian chat room, seeking comfort from whomever the Lord would lead me too. There was a large group of Christians, and at least one person claiming to be Muslim. I was grossly ashamed as I saw at least one christian throwing statements like "All Muslims are terrorist", "I would be a Muslim, but I don't like bombs", and things like that. I was shocked, and very ashamed at this

I believe God made man to be perfect, for us to live perfect lives and to always be happy. Well, Adam and Eve messed that up. With the introduction of sin into the world their children inherited so many demons that always stalk us, always tempt us, always try to make us stumble, fumble and fail.No matter how far removed you think yourself from evil, from the mistakes of generations gone by, those

When I went to school, certain classes had to be taken for a certain number of years. Math was 3 years, science was 3 and history was 4. I never understood that, why was history to be taken throughout my stay in high school. What did I care about what a bunch of dead people did, they were still dead. English and Science, heck even Natural Resources were much more relevant then History. This view

Intelligent Design and Evolution has been huge in the news lately. So, let's talk about that today, just for kicks.I will not hide that I am a Christian, not a shining example, but a believer never the less. I subscribe to creation as laid out in the bible. However, I am not delusional like some. I do not believe in creation due to evidence, logic, or theory. This is the basis for the whole

I don't think there is anything humans do better then blaming. Usually though, the blame is misplaced or overblown. It has become apparent to me that where blame goes is not as important as the fact that someone is blamed. I guess people feel better if someone takes the heat.On September 11th, when terrorists attacked, who was to blame? In the 4 years since the event, I've heard of pretty much

Every time I turn on the news today it's blaring how suddenly "Christmas" is taboo. Schools and government buildings are no longer allowed to have Christmas Trees, but they can have "Holiday" trees. Am I an idiot, or is it the same damn tree? Governors don't send out Christmas cards, they send out Holiday cards. There is even a case of a homeowner (I think they owned) being sent a letter
