I may have seen the light!

Do you think that he is telling the truth? Oh I am sorry, he never learned to tell the truth.

How Come?

A young Arab boy asks his father:

What is this strange hat that we are wearing?

It's a "chechia" - because in the desert it protects our heads from the sun.

And what is this weird type of clothing that we are wearing?

It's a "djbellah" - because in the desert it is very hot and it protects your body!

And what are these ugly shoes that we have on our feet?

These are "babouches" - which keep us from burning our feet on the hot desert sand!

Tell me, papa...

Yes, my son?

Why are we living in Dearborn - and still wearing all of this stuff?

Somethings just make me say OMG, what are they thinking?

Karma does not play well with others.

 I might be the only one that does this, look back on why I let people screw me over. It was so easy to blame the devil or evil forces. Those people had deceived me. The evil bastards! I just felt so sorry for myself, crying was not out of the question. The politicians had told us all that happy days are here again, there would be a chicken in every pot. Gas in every tank. The Government would tuck us in so nice and secure, safer than a mothers arms. How about that money that we loaned and never were payed back, they seemed so sincere. How many events can be brought back to memory. How about that time when nothing but rudeness was shown to us, a complete stranger. Being hateful to our kids.
Personally, I don't care anymore about those things. I repeat that statement many times a day. Some of those people that were on top of the world and judging me so harshly have now been visited by Karma. But in the great scheme of things, pay back does not really matter. Karma will handle the payback.
  It was once said," holding anger and wanting revenge at any cost is very much like drinking poison, then waiting on the other person to die!"

Who would have ever thought it would come to this?

I spoke to a friend that informed me he had just attended his 40th high school reunion. He said that there was no way he went to school with all those old people!
It seems that now if you are a Christian, you are guilty of a hate crime. No reason needed.  But killing Christians is okay. Reason, the killers are just a little too zealous in their beliefs, and that makes it okay.
When did owing money to any one become a good thing? Good Debt? Really?
There was a rally at the Capitol for Socialists recently. They left a huge amount of trash. But that is okay, they hugged a tree on the way out.
I do not believe the words of any politician! Politician is the synonym of liar.
It would not shock me if the U.S.A. broke up into 4 or 5 smaller countries. The people in Washington D.C. are dividing all the people into separate groups, who are tired of the ruling class mentality. Those people make up rules for something to do. Paperwork for what reason? Only they know for sure.
I feel so fortunate to having grown up in the 50's and 60's. Lots of changes but we did not have laws on laws. If you got into trouble, the cop would call your Dad. If you got caught with beer, he made you pour it out in front of him, then he called your dad. Schools were not entertainment centers, we went there to learn the 3 R's. Not some test that some guy named Perot felt was needed. Oh thats right, he is rich from government contracts, so he knows better.
I am going to vote in the upcoming election, I just hope my vote really does count. But who knows, maybe we get the Daley treatment again.

Whose Religion is the Best?

The news lately is just full of venom and hate. This religion is mad at that religion because this religion called that religion unbelievers. Okay? Is the statement true or not? If you don't adhere to their faith and beliefs, then you actually are an unbeliever. On the other hand, if they don''t follow your religion then they are unbelievers.  Of course that calls for bombings, murder, war, you name it, to stop the spread of that evil religion.
Could the rest of the world be told what these know it all religion experts know, so that we can settle the spiritual matters and get on with feeding starving people. I do not follow any one preacher or teacher because I am perfectly comfortable learning on my own. Just study the foundation of any so-called faith, get into the inner workings of that faith, then see if you blindly follow Rev. Soandso.  I might be a handful if one of my grand kids was brain washed into blowing himself up in the name of some BS religion.
 What about all the environmental folks, the vegans, gays and lesbians, Republicans, Democrats, elitists, northerners, southerners, it seems as if everyone has a religious axe to grind. Why do I call it religious? Just ask yourself," what do I spend the most time thinking about?" Whatever it is, that is your true love, with a strong chance of it bordering on being your faith.

Oh well, I have pissed off enough people for now, I am just tired of hearing the people on TV and Radio telling me to send my money to God, just use their address. By the way, if I do something heroic and I am awarded 77 virgins, do I get to go back to being 25?  I need to check the fine print.
