A Response To A Response To Gun Bans
In response to this article, I received the following comment: The easy thing to do would be roll my eyes and go talk to my lawn furniture but I will set the example for my grand-kids that taking the easy way out isn’t always good. It is important to mention that I don’t support “Gun […]
Why I Do Not Support Banning Guns
I am not in favor banning guns. I am in favor of protecting children. If you’re struggling to understand how these two ideas can coexist in a single brain, I’m going to walk you through my reasoning. I’m not happy about it though. The logic is simple enough that lawn furniture can grasp it and […]
Joe Biden Edges Out Jesus As America’s Messiah
Joe Biden is worried about America’s soul. Our soul is not in good shape because Donald Trump. Also climate change and hatred. Plus racism. So it’s obvious we need a person who can lead the country to a place that isn’t the place where we currently are. That person is Joe Biden. “We are in […]
Christians: Don’t Trust Religious People
“Religious” is a word I don’t use often because it doesn’t mean anything. Describing myself as “religious” is like saying I’m an “Earthling”. “Religion” is the reason given for both abstaining from chocolate during lent and throwing virgins into volcanoes to improve crop yield. So when I say I’m “religious”, you don’t know any more […]
Hawkins, Streblow, Brisket and Identity.
Tim Hawkins and Daren Streblow spend a few minutes telling me about barbecuing techniques, Tim’s daughter’s wedding and bad candy.

There’s an email from you, Pkarlgh that causes us to revisit the old […]

The Dish On Gossip
Talking bad about people behind their backs has so many benefits. It makes me feel smart and righteous. When I’m on a gossip roll, I can triple the size of my ego in just a couple of minutes! And that’s fun! Gossip is easy too. It doesn’t require the effort of some other sins. (If […]
Sam’s Club Is Like Christianity. Chick-Fil-A Is Not.
One of the easier things you’ll ever do is order a sandwich from Chick-Fil-A. During regular business hours, just walk-up and place your order. (I referenced businss hours to avoid being flooded with ‘What about Sunday’ jokes…) Chick-Fil-A doesn’t check your I.D. You don’t have to sign any papers. The products and services are freely […]
The Peaches New Book, Replacing Ships, and Kindred Spirits
This episode was meant to follow up after Jonnie W. – but got postponed. Luke bought Peaches a book. She tells me, with no shortage of enthusiasm, about how great it feels to have found her kindred spirit. We ponder the Ship of Theseus. I’m outraged to find out my marriage analogy isn’t unique to […]
