Nashville Billboards claim Jesus will return...
I don’t doubt that these people have the best of intentions, but if Jesus was calling the shots in their finance department, I don’t believe that He would spend all their money on billboards.

The future is no place to place your better days..
In a meditative moment, I sourced all of my anxieties, fears, and desires into one basket. I metaphorically wrapped them up and shipped them to an unknown address. For too long I’ve lived in dwelled on the past, and lived for tomorrow. For someone like myself who reaches out to others to live in the “now”, its high time I started doing this myself.

Sometimes when I cant sleep I come up with an illogical hypothesis for everything, giving it a reason and understanding in my head. Like how time can be measured by a piece of string and how the knots I tie in the string represent a significant existence. Then I see what two knots on the string are closest together and use that to judge compatibility between people. If they’re touching, they’re...

BLUE MOON TONIGHT
The second full moon occurring within a calendar month is called a Blue Moon. The latest was seen on 31st May 2007. Far from being a rare event this phenomenon occurs once every three years on average. I know, who cares, right?

We’re all too busy working, entertaining ourselves. Forty hours, television and prescription pills. Well I take two a day to make my brain behave. It never does but who’s to say at least my doctor gets paid.

ANYBODY WANT A PEANUT?
I don't vote, because I have the right to say no.
It is commonly said, “If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain about the outcome.” The opposite is true. By playing the game, voters agree to the rules. Only those who don’t play and withhold their consent have a right to complain about the outcome, especially since the winner will have his hand in the non-voter’s pocket.
Voting is not an act of political freedom. It is an act...
