Some random ramblings I have heard in the last few days…
Billy Graham and his gospels.
Last night just before my favorite TV show LOST, this man featured in a 1 hour special on his gospels and how he is “changing america”. I have noticed that almost every second person seems to have “changing” effect on america these days – why even American Idol promises to do the same, we can of course allow Billy Graham to do just same 😀
Some excerpts of his speech to thousands of followers who had come to listen to gospel:
This one made me laugh:
“…You remember what happens in the latest Star Wars movie? The young man loses his way to greed and temptation and becomes the bad guy. He becomes the satan; and he is defeated by Truth! he’s defeated by God!”
If anything, Mr. Billy, the latest Star Wars was about evil coming to rise and not otherwise :D. Maybe he got his chronology wrong, or he’s just lost trying realize the eternal truth!
This one irritated me:
“…Buddha towards the end of his life said – ‘I am still searching for the truth’. Jesus Christ is the truth!”
WTF? Religious propoganda is fine by me, but please Mr. Billy can you keep it confined to your religion and not trespassing on other religions thelogy? Do you for instance even know what Buddha’s philosopy is, and what he did really mean by that?
Weather forecast while driving to work:
Today’s temperature will vary. (Who would’ve thought?). Today’s highs will be in low 50s while lows will be in high 30s.
A “cold front” that covered our area will be moved north by a “high pressure” area which will force cold front away. However by night, we should expect the “second” “cold front” to cover the area. Thank you Mr. Weatherman.
Some Ex-CIA Officer who was in Afghanistan on a “Look for Bin Laden” team, now retired, has written a book on it (who doesnt these days?), and was exclaiming in the interview:
“…At some point, I allowed Food and Water to be supplied to Osama Bin Laden while waiting for Air Power. I knew he was hiding in the caves – thats the only place they could hide.”
Common sense would suggest that you cut every possible link to your enemy. No more comments.
My friend told me few days ago that sometime ago in Germany, a man posted an online ad that he wanted to be eaten. He got a response from another man, who happily devored him. The man who did the service has been arrrested.
Prosecutors are now debating whether it was an act of cannibalism or act of mutual consent, if which if it was, the man who ate him cannot be proescuted. I am not even interested in knowing what happens next.
By the way, how did the man who advertized himself put the ad ? – You my gentle readers can come up with some creative answers! Make them funny!!
Umm…. what the other news that piqued my mind for last few days….
My friend’s girlfriend got him a huge foosball table for his Birthday. Lucky me 🙂 – He needs company to play it, and I am so available. I love my friends and their girlfriends hehe!
All right… enough nonsense for now. Will rant later. Ta-Ta!
