Men think they are God’s gift to earth, ya know that? (Well, the REALLY great men who ARE God’s gifts are to humble to think that– it’s only the arrogant buffoons who think they are so great). This summer has been a doozy so far. I’m not talking about hurricane seasons and radar detector alerts (by the way, where’d all those clarion calls of devastation and destruction go? Didn’t these bright guys prophesy billions of end-of-the-world hurricanes last year and the year before??) Anyway. I read the headlines and have coniptions. What IS IT with all the murders these days? And these aren’t your everyday, bad murders. These are heinous acts.

One insane idiot held up his 3-month old baby at arm’s length and blew him away. Why? Because he was mad at his girlfriend. Good God, people. A little baby in cold blood, two feet away.

Another incident has me seething mad: a 13-year old pervert boy raped and murdered a 2-year old girl that he was babysitting. DISGUSTING. The kid should be hung by his pubescent facial hair. That is plumb evil. And why did he do it? The girl was nagging him because she wanted to play, and he didn’t. Wicked. I also don’t understand why mothers would leave their precious little babies with teenage boys. Don’t they know what idiots 99.9% of teenage boys are?! Lord, it’s SO sad it would rip my heart to shreds.

Makes me sad, stories like this. Makes me very angry, too. Oh Lord, those poor little ones.

OH. MY. GOSH.

*gasp gasp gasp gasp* Noooooooo!

Are we in Saudi Arabia!??!??!???!

That’s the attitude of news reporters at NYDailyNews about this story. Give me a break. What an immature reporter! So liberal that his brain is about to fall out of his skull. I hope his wife reads his articles…

A woman arrested for public lewdness for allegedly having sex in a park is facing a surprising additional charge: cheating on her husband.

No, this wasn’t in a Muslim country far away, it is happening in New York.

Suzanne Corona, a 41-year-old woman from Batavia, N.Y., just east of Buffalo, was busted along with 29-year-old Justin Amend last week, police said.

So it has to be a Muslim country for adultery to be a crime?! What crap!

Adultery is evil. It’s lying, it’s destroying, and it’s illegal. And it should be! I am not Muslim but I cheer those Arabs on when they take a stand against adultery! I think New York (and the other states) are far too lenient with adultery.

The pair allegedly were having sex on a picnic table near a playground in Farrall Park just after 5 p.m. on Friday, according to WHAM 13. Police report several parents and children were nearby.

“[The police officer] asked them what they were doing, and they said, ‘Just talking,’ and obviously they weren’t just talking,” said Officer Eric Hill, of the Batavia Police Department.

Both have been charged with public lewdness. When it was discovered that Corona was married, the adultery charge was added. She faces up to 90 days in jail or a $500 fine.

In court on Tuesday, Corona did not enter a plea, but vowed to fight the constitutionality of the charge.

“One of the reasons you don’t see this charge more often is that the law in New York State requires that there must be corroboration,” Genesee County District Attorney Larry Friedman told the Daily News.

Moreover, the woman should be busted for irresponsibility and stupidity. She blames everything under the sun for her criminal behavior.

According to court papers obtained by WHAM 13, Corona told police at the time of her arrest, “I know what I did was inappropriate and I apologize, but you’d understand if you knew what my life was like.”

She told officers her husband is “transgender,” and that the two “never had sex.”

“The police are not out conducting investigations looking for people committing adultery,” Friedman said.

“At this point, the charge is still pending,” he added, noting that it was the police who chose to charge Corona with adultery.

Although he was not sure how old the law was, the district attorney said one other person had faced similar charges in Batavia 13 years ago. Records indicate nearly a dozen others have been similarly charged statewide, according to ABC News.

I can’t get over how shocked the reporters are. It’s like they are flabbergasted that adultery is actually WRONG and should be PENALIZED. Yeah, buds, you’d better watch out…

For those who are concerned about the Adultery Law, all I have to do is throw this quote back into your face:

If you’re not doing anything wrong, you don’t have anything to worry about, right?! Right?!?!

YOW. Look at this sucker.

(Is that really just Photoshopped??)

THAT, dear people, is the mother of all sinkholes, according to the news folks. It swallowed a THREE STOREY building (and everything in it). Don’t go here to learn more about it– go here. Apparently, a tropical storm (Agatha) blew through Guatemala. The

Tropical Storm Agatha swept across Central America yesterday, bringing torrential rain that killed more than 100 people and opened a 60m-deep sinkhole in Guatemala City which reportedly swallowed up a three-storey building.

The first named storm of the 2010 Pacific season dumped more than a metre of rain in parts of Guatemala, also hitting El Salvador and Honduras. At least 113 people were reported killed, with around 50 missing in Guatemala alone as rescue workers searched through the rubble.

The 30m-diameter sinkhole opened up in a northern district of Guatemala City, with residents blaming the rains and substandard drainage systems. Local reports said one man was killed when the building was swallowed. In 2007, three people died when a similar sinkhole appeared in the same area.

It’s nice to see a news report spell the word “storey” correctly. Not even Spell Check can get it right.

ANYWAY.

WHY the people would plunk a city in the middle of a swamp baffles me. It’s like Los Angeles or Mexico City– hey, who cares if the subsoil is about to crack open and swallow us all up?! Let’s build a big city here, expand it, and dump really expensive homes in the place!! And then, when disaster strikes, we’ll demand that the federal government declare an “emergency” and all the other sane folks living in non-disaster locations will bail us out!!!

It’s really sad that disasters happen. But if you are ASKING for them to begin with, and sympathy is not forthcoming… why do you complain?

Anyway, I hope the Guatemalans are doing OK. It’s gotta be tough. I feel sorry for those folks.

Wow, is this business a glutton for punishment, or what?

Facing billions of dollars in losses the post office is considering all options in its effort to cut costs. So, the commission that oversees the postal service and the post office’s Inspector General are asking for suggestions from the public.

Send your ideas to the postal regulatory commission at prc.gov or the postal inspector general website at blog.uspsoig.gov.

Actually, this is pretty cool. I’m glad they are asking for input instead of treating us like peons or criminals under security cameras. The post office is ragged on by everybody, but so few people have any constructive ideas on how to help solve their problems. This is supposed to be OUR postal service, not the government’s who so graciously dole it out to us, right?

Well, I will be making this suggestion to the Post Office:

Don’t look to the bottom rung (i.e., the carriers, and eliminating delivery days) to fix your financial problems. Look to the TOP rung– look at the administration and the bloated bureaucracy at the top. The Postal Service is one great big upside-down pyramid. It’s top heavy. Start to condense jobs and eliminate over-lapping duties, and for God’s sake, get rid of the waste. For example, you do not need three bosses to oversee one post office. There are too many layers of administration. This is why government and public education are so costly, as well.

Plus, I give you my advice for FREE.

And it’s good advice!

“Judge not, lest you be judged.” Matthew 7:1

Yep! That’s what it is!

If I wasn’t feeling so darn lousy from this miserable cold I have, I’d be ranting about this issue. But I’m just not my wonderfully crabby old self when I’m sick. And boy, am I SICK.

I hate being sick, HATE IT. And I’m too tired to think. My sinuses are about to burst out through my corneas. So instead, I’ll let Greg Laurie do the ranting this time. He does a pretty good job, too!

This is usually said about the time you say something they consider “judgmental.” And what constitutes a “judgmental” statement? It’s basically anything about which you have an absolute opinion, and they happen to disagree with it. It’s a situation where you would dare to say something as controversial and unkind as, “No, that’s wrong!”

The response is usually pretty heated. “Who are YOU to judge ME? Doesn’t the Bible say ‘Judge not lest you be judged’?”

By the way, that verse isn’t saying we shouldn’t judge; it is saying we shouldn’t condemn. And no true believer in Jesus should do that. The fact is, I think Christians are the most loving, the most open and the most accepting of others. You can usually find the most narrow-minded people among the ranks of those who claim to be broad-minded. It’s true, isn’t it? Personally, I have found that those who often claim to be the most accepting are in reality the most unaccepting.

A true Christian bases his or her ideas and opinions on a biblical worldview. Non-believers will also have their opinions, based on a secular worldview. Ironically, they will say that they have no worldview, but they really do. They will say they are open to everything, but in reality they are quite closed.

It boils down to this: Everyone has a right to their opinion today EXCEPT the one holding a biblical worldview. Those with a secular viewpoint would rather we just went away quietly, and didn’t express our opinion at all.

So settle down in some cushy contemporary furniture and read the whole thing. The guy makes SENSE, I tell ya!

I’ll be back when this cold is gone. If I survive that long! Gah!

That was the question posed by the brilliant journalists at MSNBC the other day: Big Quake Question: Is Nature Out of Control?

Uh.

Well, yes. YES, you dunderheads! When was nature ever IN control?! That’s why they call it nature, hello?!

When I went back to the “news” “story” online today, the title had been changed: Big Quake Question: Are they getting worse?

Uh.

Well, no. NO, you knuckleheads! Earthquakes are earthquakes!!! There have been both BIG ones and SMALL ones, all throughout history.

I wish some people would get out of their stuffy offices a TAD more frequently. Go outside, take in the leaves, the trees, the history of the world. It’s ALL OUTTA YOUR CONTROL, you control freaks!!!
