In the wake of the assassination attempt on Congresswoman Giffords in Tucson this past weekend and in memorium to those innocent bystanders who lost their lives and are being laid to rest, I would like to post this speech given by Robert F. Kennedy on 5 April 1968. It has been nearly 43 years...

Ephphatha Poetry: "Imagine if the Tea Party Was Black" - Tim Wise Let’s play a game, shall we? The name of the game is called “Imagine.” The way it’s played is simple: we’ll envision recent happenings in the news, but then change them up a bit. Instead of envisioning white people as the main...

Well this Monday I will have had my puppy for a whole week, it has been trying. I am crate training her, which has not been easy, she first of all hates her crate, and second of all thinks her crate is an out house. At 15 weeks old, my little Affenpinscher has been a bundle of joy...

I had a very strange dream, night before last, usually I forget these dreams right away, but this one stuck with me for some reason. I was watching a train (apparently a circus train) make its way down the tracks, when all of a sudden a little red geo metro comes racing along side of the...

Pat Robertson says Haiti paying for 'pact to the devil' - CNN.com First off as a historian I can't tell you how utterly ridiculous his suggestion that Haiti broke off against Napoleon III. Napoleon III was the Emperor of France fifty years after Haiti became independent of French rule...

http://www.baptistdigest.com/archive/column/the_dying_american_church/ NASHVILLE, Tenn.—I am by nature an optimist. I have seen the hand of God too often in my life to live in a state of despair and defeatism. But the state of evangelism in the American Church is such that I do have my...

Conservapedia.com's Conservative Bible Project aims to deliberalize the bible Forget attacking liberal bias in Hollywood or in the media. One group says it's the Bible that's gotten too progressive. The Conservative Bible Project is leading the charge to deliberalize the Bible by using a...

Well at work there is a bullheaded conservative woman who gets all her information about politics from Fox Noise and E-mails (which if she could be bothered for a minute could easily be debunked by a simple visit to Snopes, except that she believes Snopes is an "evil" liberal website:doh: ) {of...

I am sick and tired of this Obama=Hitler nonsense. Maybe its just me but Barack Obama is the strangest looking Aryan that I have ever in my life seen. Call it a hunch, but I seem to think Hitler would not believe Obama to be part of the Master Race, which is such an important part of...

At work a rather new employee and I have strucken up a friendship. She has beautiful eyes, a pretty smile, and is very nice, she is also very married. Today we were talking (she was complimenting my ability to function with one arm, as I have learned I have a hair line fracture on the other), as...

Well this has not been a good year for me coaching my baseball team, the good news is we won a couple of times. The bad news is, I am injury prone. I sit here typing this with my right hand due to spraining my left wrist showing my boys how to execute a rundown, I got to chasing a boy, tripped...

I'm a bit annoyed right now. Many don't know but I coach a Little League baseball team, were not bad, but not very good either. We've played four games so far, and lost them all this year, so were working on a perfect record. Well at tonights game, apparently some of the parents aren't...

I do not know why, but today I am in a terrible and rather depressing funk. Normally I am a happy go lucky kind of guy, my singleness does not bother me, its just a stage of life. Today though I am down. I partially attribute it to talking with a group of my closest friends who are also single...

Okay here I go again! Recently have been in a major funk that I can not seem to crawl myself out of, naturally I seek help from Mental Health Professionals, this seems to have only made things worse. I was hoping to go speak to the doctor about the problems I was having and hoping he would sit...

This is something I have discovered about myself, I have major issues with trusting someone. IE a female friend at work, and I have been close, spending the last little bit of the work day together for several months, until recently when her supervisor complained that by us talking she was...

Right now I am fuming as never before, and I need some advice. About a month ago I went out on a date with an old aquiantance from High School, we reconnected on MySpace and exchanged a few phone calls, and all seemed to go well. We went bowling, went to dinner and caught a movie, I Am...

Well I met a girl, liked her alot, and was taking my time to get to know her. We seemed to be a good fit, had similiar personalities, and points of view on many things, we would have been a good pair. Well apparently now she has a boyfriend:doh: Whats a guy to do? Hmm well if her boyfriend...

Why don't people talk like this anymore? We need good solid leadership like what we lost on that dark day in 1968. The words of this speech ring as true in 2007 as they did when this speech was first given in 1966, 41 years has past and where are we? Repeating the same mistakes as yesteryear...

I had a conversation today, and thought I would post this here. First off I do not condone spouses who cheat, there other and better ways to solve your problems. I have had an ex gf cheat on me, and I know the pain it causes, and can only imagine when a spouse does it. I sometimes think I am...

Okay, well I went on a blind date Friday, it can only be described as mediocre. The pluses *The young lady I meant had pretty brown eyes (I am a sucker for Brown eyes) *She was very nice and has an open mind *She works, and holds down a job. The negatives *Where I got dressed up...
