Aaaugghh.
I was right. It is about creepy aliens. Oh, all very Chtulu and star gods and crap like that and he suckered me in again! Plus a little bit of polemics on global warming. (I am 55. I don't care about global warming. You guys deal.) I am so pissed. You know what? I'll save it for the party in October. Roast a book you hate. Because you know what? I've come to believe that some books don't deserve to stay in print. Like a book Ari the Therapist recommended then changed his mind about. That went into the Pleasantville landfill, thankyouverymuch.
But yes, I still have that bad-boy thing going for him. But I hope he has burned me for the last time.

Crazy Heart
Did you see "Tender Mercies"? Then, fine, you don't need to see Crazy Heart unless you want to see The Fat and Flabby Dude.

Wake up, stupid!
This is what I have been hollering at myself for the last umpteen years. Every time I think I might have roused myself from my coma, I pay a bill online and go back to beddy-bye. Well, it's done to the bone now, kiddies. I'm wondering how exactly it is that I'm going to make my mortgage payment and pay my bills.
Maybe it's time to get down on my knees to Wells-Fargo and do the necessary sucking.

Please stop picking on Christians. Please stop picking on Catholics
There are lots of wacky Mormons out there who do way worse things. Why don't you go hound them for awhile? And are we really done with Muslims yet? No, still plenty of picking-on to go around.
I'm sure you have your reasons for despising organized religions. I understand, but I don't have the same hatred. Or, for that matter, any hatred. I have seen the very good things the people and priests of St. Fatty's parish do. They are good people. They love God. I don't understand the veneration of Mary, but I wasn't raised in Catholicism.
We all know plenty of evil is done in the world and is blamed on religion. Could there be other reasons?

Did I waste my day off?
You betcha! In spades.

I like Catholics! I don't like pedophiles (which are only a small small minority of priests, tiny teeny tiny (and according to Gary, there are NO child abusers, all those kids lie)), and I don't like them getting away with it. Catholics I like.
And YAY October! And so many books. May I bring Moms annotated Bridges of Madison County? Will you read before burning?
I gave up on Stephen King YEARS ago. I could just tell that he'd do me wrong one day. Plus, after the first few short stories I read so many years ago (that are STILL WITH ME), I knew I didn't need him having access to my head. All Bad.
Don't get me started on Mormons. I escaped and I intend to stay that way. Happy Pagan here. However, I'm totally fine with other people having their rituals. It's when they get upset about mine and want me to change to theirs that I get bothered.
Of course, I live in Fundy Backwater USA. Bob Freakin' Jones University is in my neck of the woods.
I'm currently reading Filthy Shakespeare. Some learned person has taken the good time to explain all of Shakespeare's sexual puns. I think it's an excuse to say Shakespeare wanted to write "fuck" a lot but didn't have the nerve. It was $5 hardback. I'm enjoying it. For the Elizabethans, apparently, EVERYTHING meant sex. Sort of like today...
