Jerry Falwell's Last Words

Which do you prefer...? (All of these begin with the stunned realization something's terribly, terribly wrong on his face and end with him clutching his chest, collapsing and dying)
1) "This...better be...the...fucking...rapture!!!"
2) "QUICK...SOMEBODY...MAKE SURE YOU BLAME THIS ON THE HOMOSEXUALS!!!"
3) "Wait a minute, God didn't tell me it was today?!"
4) "Someone...call a hooker...I MEAN DOCTOR...DOCTOR!!!!"
5) "I see a bright light...a bright, red/yellow/orangish light. Why am I feeling so warm?""
6) "I'm not ready, Lord...I have more campaigns and elections to tamper with"
7) "But, without me, all those people I preach to will find out the truth"
8) "Uh-oh, NOW I'm in BIG TROUBLE!"

Jerry Falwell was a munipulative, racist, sexist, homophobic, fear-mongering, self-aggrandizing, blowhard who hurt much more than he helped Christianity, the United States and people all over the world. His hypocracy has been exposed, discussed, and debated for decades. What's sad is not that he died, but how far he rose as a "leader" in this country.

Over the next few days, we'll hear how wonderful Jerry Falwell was and all the "good deeds" he did in his lifetime and how we all should take a moment to think about someone like him. I've thought about it already. Just because someone dies, that doesn't make them a good person (Nixon was a paranoid cock-sucker, to use his recorded verbiage). Let's all remember the things he said in front of millions. 9/11 was "divine punishment" and the fault of homosexuals and liberals is a good one to start with (a statement quickly retracted once he realized that red light on the top of the camera meant it was on).

Sorry this is from Fucked Ruse and for subjecting you to
"I-LOVE-THE-TASTE-OF-NEOCON-COCK" and Colmes, but here's a clip:

'Tis the season to be voting

I haven't enjoyed a primary season like this one in SUCH a long time! First, I'll say, I haven't paid as much attention to primaries in the past as I have this one, but damn, I sure picked a good one. So, Clinton and Obama are in a dead heat (always thought that was a weird phrase). OK. I'm an Obama supporter, but if Clinton gets the nomination, I'm fine with that. If all of the Democratic contestants were still in the race, she wouldn't be my second choice either. However, if it's her, I can deal. I'd like to see how a female president would work. I think, very well. I do feel - though - that we need a real change in this country. The idea of Bush - Clinton - Bush - Clinton is not appealing to me at all. Yes, things were going well in the 90s, but that's so last millennium. Enough of the past. I think we need a real change, or - to paraphrase Monty Python - we need something completely different. I think that's Barack Obama. As much ...

How I Did It: Confessions of an Ex-Cigarette Smoker

A lot of what I remember about this, I do because I was keeping a quasi-journal at the time. It was in a blue-covered, college-ruled, single subject notebook I'm sure I initially bought for a different purpose. Early morning.  November 19, 2005.  I may have overslept. I remember feeling rushed until I got into the car. Since I packed the night before, I must have overslept.  Ashley West Leonard gave me a ride to Burbank Airport. I was heading to Minneapolis, MN for Thanksgiving at my sister’s house. I was able to visit with them for a full week. Since I was never the wake-up-and-smoke-a-cigarette-before-everything type, I hadn’t had one before the flight. I got to my sister’s and remembered that Beverly (my sister) had quit cigarettes a few years before. I think her husband, Dan did likewise.  I didn’t want to smoke or smell like cigarettes around my nieces, Rebecca Ryweck and Rachel Ryweck. Also, it was November in Minnesota, so...
