Monday Morning Musings

Why is it that dashboard lights come on with just parking lights? You get people driving around and since they can see their dashboards, they think the lights are on. And they’re not.

It’s getting dark earlier (and the switch back to Standard time {fall back} comes at 2 am local in just under two weeks – November 4 will make it even earlier).

What is the thing with fake bullet holes on a vehicle? Why would anyone want to pretend that they either spend time in the wrong areas of town, or with the wrong people?

Monday Morning Musings

I’m pretty offended that there is a school of thought that I should vote for Hillary because we are both women. I am offended that anyone should vote for or be in favor of something just because one is a member of one group or another (gender, race, ethnicity, education, ability, talent, etc.). Personally, I am a member of many and varied “groups”, as are most people I would think. What happens when the interests of any two of your “groups” are in conflict? Does one spin around and around with one’s eyes bugging out until one just explodes?

What does Globaloney (Dafydd ab Hugh at Big Lizards) have to do with peace?

Any other thoughts?

Prayer Request

We lost my sister’s mother-in-law to cancer yesterday. Please lift the family up in prayer as my sister’s father-in-law just lost his brother to cancer just a few weeks ago. He couldn’t go to his brother’s funeral because he was at the hospital with his wife.

This family has endured so much loss in the past few weeks and they really need your prayers.

Thank you.

S and W,

May The Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious unto you.

May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.

All comments will be forwarded to the family, please leave one.

Mystery Illness

Gastrointestinal distress… Went to the doctor on Saturday, blood tests were normal, CT scan didn’t show any kidney stones, gallbladder issues, or anything else for that matter.

Now there’s just the distress with back pain…

Fun.

Posting may therefore be a bit light until I get back on my feet.

New Move On TV Spot

Captain Ed notes the new Move On TV spot that is trying to distract from the “Betray us” ad by transferring the betrayal status to President Bush.

In comments at his site I transcribed the ad and noted something…

“In 2006, George Bush had 130,000 troops stuck in Iraq. Americans had elected a new congress to bring them home. (130,000-130,000 = 0) Instead George Bush sent in 30,000 more troops. (130,000 + 30,000 = 160,000) Now he’s making a big deal about pulling out, you guessed it, 30,000 (160,000 – 30,000 = 130,000) so next year there will still be 130,000 troops stuck in Iraq. George Bush: A betrayal of trust.”

The emphasized section above is the funniest.

Just whose fault is it that troops are still in Iraq?
