CONSERVATISM = JESUS

dcobranchi — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 16:51:37 +0000

It’s simple math. Start with John 1:1

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Add in this crap from my favorite wingnut site:

“That’s one of the things that I think characterizes the left,” states Crouse. “They don’t want there to be any authorities [or] boundaries or any demands on their own opinions.

“They want to be able to go in any direction they want to go, and for their word and their stances [and] their opinions to be the final thing — and they’ve set up their own intellect as the ultimate authority rather than the Word of God, rather than the principles of conservatism.”

I guess liberalism = everything but Christianity. Cool. We have lots more folks on our side.

WEIRD PRODUCT OF THE DAY

The next time I’m taking all of my remote controls on a canoe trip, I’ll make sure to stick them all in this “Heat Seal Poly Bag for Remote Controls.”

It is baggy and semicircular on one end. Put in what you need to pack, and blow with hot wind, it will shrink along the item and dovetail well. Simple to operate, waterproof, dustproof, antifouling, good appearance, dampproof, it is a super easy to use packing product.

PRODUCT REVIEW: M&M’s PRETZEL

dcobranchi — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 21:22:48 +0000

We finally tried the much-hyped candy. I love chocolate covered pretzels. These new M&M’s are almost but not quite entirely unlike chocolate-covered pretzels (with apologies to Douglas Adams). Very little chocolate flavor and even less pretzel.

Much ~~ado~~ advertising about nothing.

STUPID GOVERNMENT TRICKS

The boys and girls at the FBI have too much time on their hands.

WARNING: HOMESCHOOLING POST AHEAD

I need some help. The girls (and I) want to learn ASL. None of us has any kind of experience with the language, so we’re going to at least try to learn it via some kind of program. Does anyone have any experience in this area? Suggestions? Warnings? Wild guffaws?

We’re leaning towards Naturally Signing.

Thanks.

OFF TARGET

Target recently donated $150k to reactionary GOPer Tom Emmer, who is running for MN governor. I am personally going to boycott Target until they repent by donating a like sum to the DFL.

BAH!

I haven’t posted anything homeschooling-related in about forever, but I couldn’t pass up this re-tread from the 1990s. A couple of quotes:

If you have time to commit, then homeschooling may be an alternative to traditional education venues. The time you spend homeschooling does not have to follow traditional models (8-5, five weekdays), but it does require at least the same amount of time.

The best homeschooling parents are former teachers

BEEN THERE, TRIED THAT, DIDN’T WORK

More secessionist talk from an (WARNING! REDUNDANCY ALERT!) ignorant Republican.

Shop at Home Depot and make a bunch of bigots cry.
