Thomas Michael Menino, who insisted a mayor doesn’t need a grand vision to lead, then went on to shepherd Boston’s economy and shape the skyline and the very identity of the city he loved through an unprecedented five consecutive terms in City Hall, died Thursday. He was 71 and was diagnosed with advanced cancer not long after leaving office at the beginning of this year.

RE Halloween:
I saw that in the theater with my girlfriend way back in 1978...

Jamie Lee was actually pretty cute back then... looked more like her Momma back then, rather than her poppa Tony, like now.

>>Oh, but Rome will undoubtedly honor this proabortion,<< His will be another one to watch won't it.

Sunday, November 2 Mayor Menino will lie in state at Faneuil Hall. 10 a.m. This event will be open to the public.

Monday, November 3 Funeral Mass 12 p.m. Most Precious Blood Parish, Hyde Park

As predicted. Watch for disgust from a few Traddie RCs, or special pleading (he showed [invisible] signs or repentance)

I always thought that too, she was much cuter as a young adult playing a teen dressing conservatively as in Halloween.

As a older adult playing sexy it did little for me.

Scripture warns of departing from the faith, (Gal. 5:1-4; Heb. 3:6,12,14; 10:38,39) while providing for present assurance that one has eternal life, (1jn. 5:13) yet they cannot lose what the never had - and need to have!

Her guns were awesome in “Trading Places”.

Remember: Tom “Pickin’” Cotton!

I can’t wait til election night...gonna get a high high on.

And “Seamus” is gonna learn what it’s like to be reeducated. Think dog obedience school combined with Reconstruction-era cruelty thrown in, to reinforce lessons.

Pro-abortion.

Will Cardinal Sean be conducting the funeral, slobbering all over the throng of pro-abortion Catholic politicians?

Only if he doesn’t have two broken legs and pneumonia.

Yeah and she looked better when she took that stupid wig off. Not smart to fall for a whore but you can’t blame Ackyord’s character.

And there’s that scene in “True Lies”.

Prayers for his soul and family or course, but is he the same Mayor who allowed his police department to violate the Constitution at will during the search for the Boston Marathon bombers?

He was the mayor of Boston. The search you refer to took place in Watertown.

He will roast in Hell for having enabled the Muslims to build a mosque in Boston.

Somewhere in Hell some poor admission bureaucrat is suffering the horrors of Menino’s mumbling speech.

When I read last week that he was discontinuing treatment I figured it wouldn’t be long.

I'm shocked he never made it into the Howie Carr Death Pool.

He played all-American heroes who just happened to have a thick Austrian accent for no discernible reason. Much like Sean Connery played all kinds of different nationalities but always sounded Scottish.

Get a load of his bastard, not on the football but gets to be the mascot I guess

Howie had an unconfirmed report that Sen. Markey referred to the current Boston mayor as “Steve Lynch” (who is a US Rep.; not Marty Walsh)

. But lately and up until he died he was an advocate of the homosexual lifestyle.

Woe to those who call Evil; Good.


Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
