Oh by the way, folks, My more serious diary: |
Today we celebrate the birthday of Robert Clive, born in 1725. He was one of the more brutal of the British savages who plundered India. Yesterday's knee-jerk with the chiro-quacker again accomplished nothing, as usual. I'm not sure how soon the tron undergrounders are gonna get to my block, but along about late morning a UtiliQuest (the company that operates the Miss Utility service) worker came by with his paint sprayer and his handful of little flags and re-marked all the gas line markings in extra-large double-bright paint jobs. Looks to me like the tron undergrounders are gonna be seriously short of excuses the next time they snag a gas line. And in the evening the church pot luck dinner was 13 people. The presento was Part 4 of how Islam isn't as good as Christianity because their imaginary sky-fairy doesn't have 3 heads like ours does. One of the guest presenters was a Palestinian Arab who is now a political science professor at a major university. He explained that the Koran has a problem. It's written in 7-th century Arabic which is about as similar to modern Arabic as Olde Englishe is to modern English, and their rules don't allow it to be translated into modern language. So there's too much misunderstanding of what anything means. Back in the 7-th century the word "Muslim" meant anybody who follows the Right Way Of Life, no matter what their religion was, and no Muslim was allowed to make war against any other Muslim. But in modern times the word "Muslim" has come to mean anybody who does not follow "My" exact denomination. So modern Muslims who don't realize that go around murdering each other and everybody else willy-nilly. Well anyhow, it's raining today. Another knee-jerk session with the chiro-quacker. Then wait and see if it quits raining. Happy Rain Dancing! OrneryPest |
