So in the last post I explained about how I picked Thursday to be the day I used when not answering people’s query about what is the current time. I explained then that I tried to be logical in my choice of being nonsensical in my answer. As a follow up question God […]
It often seems to me that I don’t think like other people. I mentioned this to God and she agreed. She went on to say that that’s a big part of why she chose me to to come and talk with. I’m mostly very logical in my thought processes but, being human, […]
I’ve already mentioned that I like to eat at Taco Bell. I find the food to be sort of like what Mexican themed candy would be if there were no sugar in candy. In other words I eat it for all the wrong reasons.
And God hasn’t tried to talk me out of it. […]
So God and I were discussing the evolution of language and we got onto the subject of the names of letters. My one big complaint about the names of letters is the “double you” character. The thing that bothers me is that all the other letters have single syllable names and double-you is […]
So God was riding along with me today when we pulled up behind a yellow Corvette with the license plate “fstrrr.”
“Faster?” I asked. He gave a noncommittal shrug, having long ago told me that I wasn’t likely to be given direct answers when asking about what’s in other people’s heads.
So I went on. […]
So after God and I got to talking about lies the other day, I took some time to look up an old quotation. Vladimir Lenin said, “A lie told often enough becomes the truth.” That one line, more than anything else I’ve read, seems to sum up the policy of the Bush/Cheney administration.
God […]
So God and I got onto the subject of lies today. I had noticed a bottle of baby shampoo that proudly proclaimed “no more tears,” and was somewhat appalled that they could get away with such a demonstrably false claim.
God’s response was to get all clinical on me. She explained that the grey […]
I was bemoaning to God today the lack of optimism I see in the people I deal with, or whose writing I read, on a day to day basis. It was just starting to seem to me like all the positive thoughts were being crushed out, leaving just the husk of humanity behind.
So then […]
So God pointed out to me that a report was recently issued about a study of teenagers and sex. I only read an article that talked about the report and not the report itself, so I can’t say much about the actual study. The soundbite that the article focused on is that, apparently, […]
I’ve got a number of bad habits.
One of them is eating lunch at Taco Bell. I know it’s not good for me. I even know that it doesn’t really count as Mexican food; I certainly don’t count it when I tell people that Mexican is quite probably my favorite cuisine. But I’ve […]
I passed a FedEx Express truck on the freeway today and on the basis of that sort “double express” nomenclature God and I discussed the swinging of the pendulum of business.
A few years back FedEx made a big deal in their advertising about changing their name from Federal Express to just FedEx. Since that […]
Well, it’s Labor Day. A day of rest for the working class stiffs in the U.S. The effective end of summer, at least for the overly-fashion-conscious. Today I’ll be munching on a burger cooked over a bed of coals and complaining about how hot it is.
It’s the American way.
I asked God if […]
