I saw this on DangerDave’s blog and had to steal it. It would be friggin’ hilarious… if it weren’t true.

Have you ever tried to run through deep, soft sand? Or even worse, running through water along the coast that’s just about knee deep. It’s nearly impossible. You spend a lot of energy without going much faster than a walk. And if you do it long enough, you’ll end up falling down.

That’s how my life has felt the last few weeks. Crazy stuff going on at work has had me in meetings more than in my office. As interim youth minister (along with Tammy and another part-time staffer), we’ve been barely keeping our heads above water with event after event (staring with our Halloween night to this weekends Disciple Now), keeping the Sunday school classes upright and moving forward, and evaluating minister candidates. Tammy’s facing some health issues. And all of my various sports and hobbies have been stagnant.

With that said, let me assure you I am richly blessed. God has smiled on our home in ways I can’t explain, express, nor ever deserve. I just needed to vent a little and that’s what blogs are for, right?

Thanks to you, my humble readers, for your comments, cross-links, etc., and the smiles you’ve brought me. Don’t worry about me. God is my strength. It just feels good to whine about life once in a while. Just don’t let it become a habit! (That’s a note-to-self, by the way. Nothing more.)

Thanks to TinDogCoffee for tweeting me this!

Check out this case-by-case analysis that an interesting companion to my own trilogy theory (here and here). I don’t agree with all of his findings, but I love the notation.

Clicky clicky.

Early 60’s equivalent of today’s slutty Britney/Christina/Beyonce music video. Priceless.

“You’ve come a long way, baby… sadly.”

Remember a while back when there was a sudden change in airport security? UK police did some kind of raid and then all the airlines announced that you couldn’t bring your shampoo or mouthwash on the plane. Remember thinking, “What the heck? I can only carry 2 ounces of head and shoulders on the plane?!”

Well, the details are finally coming out. The Coke Bottle Bombers are now on trial in London.

Scariest quote:

The eight men were almost ready to execute their plan to bring down seven aircraft simultaneously in mid-air as they flew from London to the United States and Canada when they were arrested.

I’ll bet donuts to dollars that these guys were caught with some of the surveillance methods The Bomber and his ACLU buddies want to make illegal.

Do you know what’s in the Big Government Bail-Out? Even the people who wrote it don’t know whats in it. They can’t even agree on exactly how much of your money the bill will burn up. I’m confident that even if I did have five days to review the bill, I couldn’t get it all read that fast. The bill can’t be put online because A) It’s over a thousand pages and B) it’s riddled with hand written amendments. (But what’s $50 million dollars more or less?)

…at work and looking for more company. Today is signing day for the Big Government Bail-Out (a.k.a. Broco Bomber’s self-stimulating bill). In case you thought this bill was some carefully thought out and well constructed legislation, here’s the truth.

P.S. I did my taxes last night. It was a very good year for us, which means a very bad April 15th. We always owe, but this is the most Tammy and I have ever had to pay. $3500. Yeah, ouch.

People will believe anything if you whisper it.

Work From Home Friday videos reach a new… height… sort of.

The Bronco Bomber has been in office 24 days. Is there any question as to how the media and lefty wackos feel about this guy?

Please note my side-by-side of Messiah #1 and messiah #2. I’ve been getting more serious about my photography lately, I have can tell you that no professional photographer worth his salt takes a picture like that unless he means to. This was intentional. We laugh. We joke. We mock their deification of the Bomber. But the only reason it’s so funny, is because it’s true.

Now, for the real kicker. The linked video here is what pushed me to write this post. Check out the ex-Beatles groupies who now ovulate at the mere sight of the Bomber. I’m serious. It’s gross. Watch the video and see for yourself.

Aside from the the lady crying out, “I love you, Bronco!” (paraphrased), just listen to the squeals when he leans over to kiss the lady asking for a free house. Am I crazy or is that the squeal of a dozen eggs simultaneously sprouting from a dozen ovaries? Ick.

And this after 24 days. Imagine what the remaining of the 1,437 days of his presidency will bring!  700 wives and 300 concubines?!
