The Power of God
Last night I had a crazy dream. In it, President Bush publicly bitchslapped Phillip Cooney and other administration officials who had been lying about the dangers of global warming. The President cited the same dozen “doctored, distorted or suppressed” reports to which Robert Kennedy Jr. has referred in the Huffington Post and elsewhere. In my dream, Mr. Bush explained that he had been talking to God and then, weeping like Jimmy Swaggart caught with a whore, he said that God had reminded him that lying was a sin, and that He would not longer tolerate it in his administration.

“Supposedly that’s what everyone wants — that this issue should be solved through science rather than through politics and that’s what we’re saying as well,” Doblin said. “The problem is, when we try to do the science we find out the government is not really that interested in solving the issue through science.”

Imagine that…

States’ rights — it’s not just for racists any more.

Just as we now consider barbaric the tradition of human sacrifice by priests at the ancient Inca temples who cut the hearts out of their own innocent worshippers, anthropologists of the future will surely declare that the Supreme Court’s decision on medical marijuana was incredibly inhumane. The war on drugs is really a war on some people who use some drugs.

Clinkscales Family Reunion May 7 2005

For any that may be interested the Clinkscales 2005 Family Reunion pix are now up.

Actually been up since the evening of the day of the reunion but getting the info on some of the folks took a few days and then I forgot to update it once Cat got the data and then finely got around to putting the software to do the photo albums the easy way on Cats machine and then the comments that we had put into iPhoto on my machine didn’t move when she imported the pix (which pisses me off) so Cat had to copy and paste them from the webpage back into the album on her machine and then export and reupload it all. But tis done and done and done again but one last time for good measure.

I tried make the sentence above a bit longer but I got lost. 😉

Spammer for god or his own pocket?

By , May 24, 2005 10:19 pm

Just got the following email from someone who seems to be spamming for God or at least trying to line his own pockets by spamming in the name of God… My comments are in Bold

From: Omitted
Subject: Following up to see if I can assist you in your Ministry
Date: May 24, 2005 7:06:29 AM CDT
To: Omitted

Hello Again,

This is Bob Omitted with Omitted.

I was searching through Google.com, and found you at the website.

Which one? Don’t think you did as my email address isn’t on a church site that I am aware of. Could you be using a spammer’s list?

I previously introduced myself to you and offered my services
to your Church or Ministry.

Good try but I don’t think so. Bet you learned that line in spammer skool.

I am in the business of helping Ministries move to the Internet,
or go further than they already are now in their web presence.

Sounds like you are in the business of moving money from others pockets to your own. But I’m sure there is a market there. Just a spammer for god…

My specialty is helping Ministries to send email to their
readership, members and web mailing list members. Many Churches &
Ministries call this a Monthly Newsletter.

If the folks are actually subscribed that is what it’s called. Most other folks call it SPAM.

I have automated mailing systems that I use to mail.

Spam software?

I use my own servers and software and have the expertise to help
you to launch or further your Internet Based Ministry Presence.

I offer reasonable fees so I can assist as many of you that want
to reach your members, readers and even the lost.

$$$ in the bank eh? Note the “even the lost”. Now if they are subscribed to the newsletter they wouldn’t be lost would they. So you must be sending this stuff to folks other than ones on the list. Like me…

I offer these services:

– Automated Email Sending (CanSpam compliant)
– Website Building and Programming
– Website Hosting and Search Engine Optimization
– Almost anything Internet Related

I work with another Ministry that sends out a daily devotion
every Mon. – Fri. They have grown from 3,000 to 34,000 readers in
2 years using my system.

Thanks for reading and if I can offer my services to you,
Please call me or email me and I will call you back.

If we are working together now and I am resending this to you,
please forgive me. If you have a question or are waiting for a
reply, this can serve as a reminder!

Thanks and God Bless,
Bob Omitted

P.S. I also offer my services to Businesses and Individuals

Spam for whoever pays, eh?

Didn’t want to hear from you the first time and see no reason to have to click a link to never hear from you again so am adding this and any further missives from you to my blog so I can help you further your “SPAM ministry”.

“I don’t want [Maher] prosecuted,” Bacchus said. “I just want him off the air.”

No voice against the war can be heard without a Republican jumping up and down and screaming we need MORE censorship. Our (the us of a) founding fathers would be up in arms against this pitiful excuse of an administration, were they or their sprit still with us today. Nuff said…

Will we be more secure — or just less competitive — if the government forces hundreds of thousands of international science students to get export licenses simply to look through a microscope?

And in little dribbles and drops freedom is is taken away without most folks even noticing it happen. All in the name of Security…
