So… Is God angry at himself?

Shia La BOOOFF!! Actor headbutted a man in a bar, so says a report..Something tells me he would have a very painful head..


Seriously, look at his noggin! I mean looks hard and heavy..foreboding and intense. A headbutt from him would make mine splash like a watermelon on Gallagher’s stage..

I feel the need to opine, slightly, on the death penalty

I can go on for hours, but I’ll try to hold my characters on here to a minimum.



Execution in Ohio: Witnesses say Dennis McGuire snorted and struggled to breathe during his nearly 25 minute long execution. Lawyers for the convicted rapist had argued that the method of execution would put him at a risk of unusual agony and terror. The death has been called horrific. 


I am not a real big fan of capital punishment, maybe that’s the Catholic education I had.. nonetheless, if we’re going to do it, do we want this much pain and suffering?


Really.. why not just do the Kim Jong Un way and feed them to dogs? Or the old fashioned way and make the lions ravage him? I am not in a position to judge anyone in a family who lost a loved one and seeks the death penalty as retribution for a crime.


But I am in a position, as any other human being is, to say that if we’re going to have this type of government sanctioned killing, let’s do it as fast as we can and not have someone struggle for 25 minutes dying.. Come on John Kasich, can’t you do something sensible here? I just had to say my peace.

How many times does he need to tell you: Don’t mess with Francis


A clean house is a holy house: The Pope has fired all but one Cardinal in just 11 months from the Vatican bank..

Another bad day for retail, malls, stores.. A great day for empty space.

Black Friday: JC Pennys and Macys among big stores that are announcing big closings.. One store, JC Penny’s, is near me at the Laurel Mall in Hazleton, PA. It is amazing how big of spaces are developing in malls around the country.. being replaced with dollar stores and pawn shops.

Obama’s NSA ‘reforms’ are little more than a PR attempt to mollify the public
Glenn Greenwald, theguardian.com


Obama is draping the banner of change over the NSA status quo. Bulk surveillance that caused such outrage will remain in place


In response to political scandal and public outrage, official Washington repeatedly uses the same well-worn tactic. It…



Sad. Trust no-one. Especially the US government, apparently.



It certainly gave me a chuckle to hear the big announcement that WE WILL STILL COLLECT THE DATA but just not store it. 


He sure did have a lot of flags behind him, though..

Today was one of those days where nothing seemed right

Everything seemed chaotic, even wrong.. Everything seemed to be in the wrong place. Maybe even the wrong puzzle. There are days like that.. 


When they happen it’s best to just go to bed..

More cool space news

Every time another planet discovery is announced, I question how long until we find the alternate versions of us? How long until we see that we’re just being replicated in the galaxy, a mass computer system of simulations. The matrix.. All that. Until then, we only have stories like this—equally amazing nonetheless: First exoplanet orbiting Sun’s twin in star cluster found, scientists say.. Yea that’s cool too..


Another one:
How we know the earth is moving through space..

The Experiment That Forever Changed How We Think About Reality


This is a great WIRED article.. a must read. But take your time doing so, it’s something you need to get your mind around..


The Experiment That Forever Changed How We Think About Reality

More hard-hitting news CNN! Seriously people?!

DHEC Confirms Nuclear Plume Moving Off Barnwell Site

nice…


DHEC Confirms Nuclear Plume Moving Off Barnwell Site

I really am not one to take photographs of food, but my nearly 70-year-old mother today wanted me to snap a shot of her breakfast from a restaurant in Danville PA called the Muffin Man. It is a nice little place should you ever visit the town, and I hope to never put photographs of food again on my site..

Dangerously high methane levels have been detected in Washington DC..There are apparently a dozen manholes with gas levels high enough that they could explode.. They are most common in the district’s oldest neighborhoods.. There’s most likely no fear in Congress, the only thing that blows there is hot air..

Mr. President, forget this NSA stuff.. Please, begin working on ‘using your pen’ to set this is motion!

Happy birthday Mrs. Obama, the big 50

It’s all well and good, and hopefully she has a great day, with a dinner in any nation-state she wants ..


But there’s a certain level of disgust and revolt I have when journalistic institutions have stories running about ‘50 ways to celebrate Michelle Obama’s birthday,’ as ABC NEWS does today.


It would be just as bad to do this about Laura Bush, or the wife of a North Korean dictator…


I just wish reporters were reporters again and not simply mouthpieces for puff propagandists. Nonetheless, Happy Birthday Michelle..
