Genuflection Rejection

Last week, I heard some local morning radio show personalities interviewing a U.S. Army official about the U.S. Army’s 233th birthday. Interjected into the discussion about the ongoing local celebratory events was the usual stream of military propaganda painting the U.S. military as the world’s savior.

Mr. Army Official bragged about the 170,000 new recruits that voluntarily signed up despite the general public’s disapproval for the war in Iraq as some sort of sorry attempt to sweeten our sour image of the world-class fakin ongoing fiasco since the illegal invasion many years and many senseless casualties ago.

When Religion Claims a Friend

Tragically I must report I’m mourning the loss of my oldest and dearest friend’s brain – not to illness or accident but rather to religion. Yes, I’m beside myself with grief over the news that my once logical, sensible, intelligent, parallel-thinking friend has fallen prey to societal pressures and joined a Catholic church. OH THE HORROR! What’s even worse is that she actually believes this is good for her and will make her a better person. I’m still trying to figure out what was wrong with the person she already was. Upon delivering the tragic news ever so proudly, she then audaciously suggested that perhaps I should consider doing the same in order to find ‘happiness and direction in life.’ At that point, I knew her mind was lost forever. Disheartened and distraught not strong enough language for the way I feel over such horrible news.

Oh, what a world Daddy!

First of all, I would like to apologise to all of our regular readers (are there any?) about the luck of action from our part. We haven't written anything for quite some time now. I personally blame the weather. After a long, cold and miserable winter, spring is finally here. That means that it is time to get out, try to have some fun, feel like a normal human being.

However, I am still watching and reading the news. Perhaps not as much but I am aware of what is going on around me and around the world. I am aware of the Austrian monster-'father' who imprisoned his daughter and had seven kids with her. People never seize to amaze me. We are capable of so many miracles and so many atrocities.

A birthday and a funeral

BirthDay Boy

First of all let me wish Happy New Year and all the best for the future to our reader(s). We haven't abandoned this site but the Xmas vacation gave us an awesome opportunity to have a break from many things including blogging and thinking about the stupidity around us.

I spent my vacation in Greece doing the things I wanted including celebrating my birthday. However I had to attend a funeral. For my emotions and thoughts on that, read the rest of this post.

So it is Xmas time again

Xmas

Christmas time hypocrisy is upon us yet again. It is the time when we remember those in need. Why is that? Perhaps because it makes us feel better about ourselves and the senseless Christmas shopping. Let us do something different instead. Let us give to those in need throughout the year by buying one thing less and give the money to a charity instead.

Are we approaching the end of the West's innovative era?

While the West is turning into a useless bunch of administrators and financiers, China is mass awarding doctoral degrees. Guess what is going to happen 10 yrs from now.

You are where you're born!

Ever see these bumper stickers like ‘Kiss me, I’m Irish’ or a kitchen magnet boasting: ‘I’m not only perfect, I’m also Italian!’? I see these far and wide across America and think to myself: Wow, this really IS the land of immigrants! I’d like to stop these people and demand a birth certificate as proof. Prove to me you’re

Big Hummers and Silicon Breasts

Why do men like big vehicles and silicon breasts? What drives us to be so stupid? I personally blame evolution.
