Dr kill: "I fed the chickens and horses wearing shorts, barefoot, no shirt."
What about the chickens and horses that weren't wearing shorts?
(Couldn't help myself)
Morning, Glories! So painfully cold, none of the critters has even asked to be let out yet. Not even the crazy one.
Just shaking off the old sock and griping that it's cold in November. Sun's out, though; that always helps.
THIS is VNN - Vic News Network, the most trusted name in news.
Accept no imitations.
Well, this… has a sad ending.
When we're driving home at night, as we cross the bridge over the creek, I figure, the big ol' barn owl is high up in the tree on the left, and by our headlights spies some delicious victim in the creek down to our right. Consequently, when he swoops, he is right in front of our windshield. Several times had this happen there or or something like it nearby play out. Haven't hit one, but it's been close. I've seen other owls that didn't make it. That's to prepare you.
So, I though I had this nice local story, about a cousin of bob's, a rare snowy owl in our neighborhood. "Snowy owl spotted south of Bartlesville" said the local radio station webpage headline. Article goes on about why they sometimes come around, their habits. Then the final line of the story: Sadly, FOX23 learned Sunday morning that at some point overnight the bird was struck by a car and killed.
Bad news, badly purveyed. Ugh.
Good evening.
I posted Louis Gohmert's commentary on the Muslim takeover at the National Cathedral. Here's an article examining the service itself:
Keynote Muslim Sermon Recites Koranic Themes of Conquering and Condemning Christians and Jews at National Cathedral “Ecumenical” Event by Andrew G. Bostom at Gates of Vienna. Calls it an “intellectual and moral disgrace on a massive scale.”
I read where there was one Christian at the National Cathedral for that Muslim takeover. Truth Revolt quotes Reuters about her.
But World Net Daily has her story, why she made the trip, what motivated her, how she got in, why she said what she did. I'd quote a bunch from it, but that would be spoilers, so here's just the main event:
The Muslims had set up their prayer rugs in such a way that their backs were turned on the cross…. Yet, they found themselves staring at a woman who demanded the cross become the center of attention. She then blurted out the message she had traveled all the way from Tennessee to deliver.
“Jesus Christ died on that cross. It is the reason we are to worship only Him. Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior,” she said. “We have built enough of your mosques in this country. Why don't you worship in your mosques and leave our churches alone?”

Yeah, me too, no matter how I read it. But I've never been good at subtle.
FenelonSpoke: Reverend fun
Thanks, but: Displays poorly on the cell. Hope I can remember to look again on the real computer.
Thanks for the (mostly) real scoop, CBD. I'll check out the recording.
" ebola patient in nebraska is no longer a patient..."
Is that as in ex-parrot?
I suppose it would be futile to ask for a serious answer about the JJ on Levin thing?? Really? Mentioned or call in? When? Those kind of details?
piano mover: Florida to Ft Leonard Wood - probably won't be as bad as this native Oklahoman's first winter in Wisconsin. Forty-four years ago, and I'm still recovering.
Always amusing when I'm reading Gran's bdy list and I see, e.g., Robert Brown, and I think, who? then read, fought himself for eternity. Oh, him! ![]()
The thread was late. Vic overslept. Wow. I fit thought in and I thought I'd be really late. A Monday in Winter.
Morning, Glories!
At the risk of sounding like Al Sharpton, JJ was on Levin??
That better, mister serious Gohmert guy?

Sorry. I was on a jury in a criminal case years ago when Louis was a district judge. My sense of humor flees at the thought of Louis Gohmert in full tilt.
Lester: "Louis is my congressman. I think he knows the diff between a Espiscopalian and a Presbyterian. I think he had a Speak-O."
Of course.Go ahead, ruin my lively joke with your dead seriousness!
His was an especially impassioned speech, delivered with quiet deliberation.

J.J. Sefton: "Louie Gohmert is a great American. More - many more - like him, please."
Indeed! In his speech, he initially correctly identified the Nat'l Cathedral as run by the Episcopal Church (my alma mater), but later on twice errs in calling them Presbyterian.
To be fair, he's probably So. Baptist, so those other denominations probably all look to him like branches of the Catholic Church.

Our forecast 2-3" of snow begins with ice pelleting. Ooh, goody!
VIA: "Now that the National Cathedral has allowed Muslim services inside the cathedral itself, under fundamentalist Islamic teaching, does the national Cathedral become the property of Islam?"
Yes.

Rep Louis Gohmert covers it all in a half hour. Kept even my severely distractable attention.
Morning, Glories!
cth: "I like the HP movies..." Yeah, I have my nerdy gripes about some of it, but that was some of the greatest casting ever! Some months back, Milady and I started watching the first one, and of course didn't stop 'til we'd watched the whole series. Explain a bit about "Rowling is terrible at staging"? An example, perhaps, where you thought the movie better in that?
Our kids are of that privileged generation that got to read 'em as they came out. Me, too.
I like the books/movies shelving.
Too soon for another Hitler video? Michelle Obama's Mirror has created Hitler finds out Gruber spilled the beans. Some of the earlier captions go by a little too quickly, but, it's funny. Also well cut — didn't use all of the scene as is so often done.
