 People along the river Avon in Stratford, U.K. were astonished at the sight of a VLS (Very Large Sausage) making its way up river, knocking boats out of the way and in some places becoming stuck so that it had to wriggle its way free. The police were called to deal with it but they knew it was hopeless because VLSes don't take orders from the police; they don't have to. Still the officers tried. "This is the Stratford police and we order you to come on shore!" The VLS just kept slowly cruising by. "VLS, if you don't come ashore immediately, you will be arrested for disobeying an order and for resisting arrest!" "Sure. And where do they think they'll put the handcuffs," the VLS chuckled to itself. "They have no idea who they're dealing with, don't even know me, and they're not very friendly." As the VLS continued to float upriver, the police moved about a mile ahead to set up a large net across the river. Eventually th...

  A certain man by the name of Augustine Sprankowitz liked to consult with fortune tellers, not that he believed everything they said, but this time it was different. The fortune teller told him that one day he would have a son, and a major US city would be named after him. And that city would be the hub of American government.   Augustine went home and pondered over the prognostication. "Sprankowitz City? It's not bad but doesn't really sound dynamic. It needs something better."    And so it was that on a Thursday, just after lunch, Augustine Sprankowitz became Augustine Washington. And upon February 11, 1731, his son was born. Augustine was pleased with his son and said, "I will love him and squeeze him and call him George."

  The history of diddling is vague. We only know that Nero diddled as Rome burned. He ruled from 54 to 68 AD.    

  Despite the warning sign, people don't care, anymore, and just do whatever they want.    

  In 1947 a painting was donated to the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. It depicted Jesus walking on the water, stretching his arm out over a boat full of sailors lost at sea. The Jesus in the picture had long, blond or light brown hair. It bothered me because I have never like paintings of Jesus. There are many renditions, none of which represent the real Jesus, and I consider them all to be idolatrous. In 2023, Joe Biden had the painting moved into the basement because of a complaint. Now, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is planning to bring it back to it's "rightful place." Sailors at the academy cheered the decision. I have long detested statues, religious pictures, crucifixes etc., to all be idolatrous. After reading the article about the painting, I commented on it and said it's not the real Jesus, and it is idolatrous. I expected to get berated for my comment, and I was.    I have just finished listening to a sermon by Paul Washer – an evangelist I deeply res...

  It didn't take long for me to start disrespecting the new pope. And that accolyte's going to get a rude awakening when the hot candle wax drips on his bald head. Or maybe he's used to it.    

     

 

 

  I designed this from scratch. I love experimenting with the desk top publisher. I used to use it for publishing a newsletter to the Christian Motorcyclist chapters, but it's been a long time and I'm having to learn it over again.
