Practice makes perfect.....post on....
My heart and Prayers are with you. I was just informed my Uncle (Stage 4) ordered himself out of the hospital to go home to die.....
nah, there are less than bright conservatives, we have to take credit for our own. there were freepers up in arms over the Obama/Pelosi/rosary biz last week on a thread here, and that was just not a big deal. i can’t stand the guy, think he’s one step removed from the Antichrist, but there was not a thing wrong with that. The rosaries are handed out as amenities to everyone who has an audience, it was not a special personal gift between Francis and Obams, i am sure some functionary gave it to him. And what does Obams want with a rosary, he gave it to Nancy, who is ostensibly a Catholic [heretical though she may be].
A Den of iniquity in North Korea ...
LMAO.
All weekend long, I had been getting asked ...”Would you mind doing....”
Response.. “not at all”
10 seconds...
“Oh, did you want me to?”
What, watching gay porn at work? ;-)
rme. ok, take the damn hat off, i’ve had enough!
Going back to the realm of the Illmatic, there were reports of iniquity worthy of the Hellfire Club.
I can see why Dennis Rodman a simple, country boy—some might say, a cockeyed optimist—would get caught up in the dirty game of world diplomacy and international intrigue.
Nice!
All right. Been working long days here at the chemical plant. You have to admit that you walked right into that one. LOL
I’m sorry for you all - my husband and siblings are facing the same thing with their mother.
You’re thinking perhaps of Billy Mumphry?
This is beginning to remind me of the biblical reference to Christians not being able to buy or sell during the end times. It is quickly becoming a situation where we can’t have a differing opinion about anything regarding gays
No time for the old in-out, ma'am, I've come to check the meter.
i know we were talking about the Left Behind series last week, but honest to God, i dreamt about the Rapture last night. It was unreal. It was xsteen and i upstairs in our house, i saw her looking up at the ceiling and i looked up and there was a whooshing sound and the ceiling and roof of the house just sort of opened up and the night sky just sort of broke up as if matter were coming apart and there was a bright cloud with Christ in it’s center. i felt my body start to sort of disintegrate from the feet up and at that point i woke myself up because it was a little bit intense. I can’t shake that feeling today. i was telling xshub about it when i woke up and he said, wow, i dreamt a cat somehow got into our house [he’s deathly allergic] and the dogs weren’t even aware it was in here. LOL!
Yikes - have to watch those group texts! lol
i did not, normal people know that i was talking about Brendan Eich being the head of an org, being pressured out of his job for his personal beliefs!
you didn’t get to go home to the chickens this weekend?
yes, when xshub and i talked about it and he said how it could happen to him, i said is this going to be it? is this going to be what causes us to have to stand up for what we believe and deal with the consequences?
I can see where that dream would leave you sort of shaken. But honestly, if we can no longer hold jobs because we have any different views about anything than the far left, isn’t that similar to not being able to buy/sell? If we can’t work we can’t buy...
i can see it happening in our lifetime. Especially if a republican cannot be elected. and heck if it’s a RINO maybe even then.
