Language Liberalism Freethought Birds

Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.

Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.

The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.

If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.

Ah, they're back

Yikes! Not only did Charlton Heston not play Spartacus ... Spartacus is not a Biblical role!

(Yes, Jeopardy! is new tonight and starting off with a great WTF?! moment...)

At 11:44 PM, September 16, 2013 Kathie had this to say...: Even husband, who rarely does so, commented on THAT one.
At 11:45 PM, September 16, 2013 Kathie had this to say...: I'd rather have Captcha, so I can have the instant gratification of seeing my comment posted right away. Wah-wah-wah!!!
At 8:04 AM, September 17, 2013 The Ridger, FCD had this to say...: I may go back to it. Comment moderation seems undoable on my phone - I'll have to see what's up with that.
At 8:47 PM, September 18, 2013 Kathie had this to say...: Guess you missed tonight's WTF moment re Romeo & Juliet in Arden Forest? Some contestants would win more by not ringing in if they're unsure, rather than risk getting it wrong and being docked that amount of money.

At 11:19 AM, September 19, 2013 Kathie had this to say...: Another "What were they thinking?" moment this week on "Jeopardy!" -- a set of clues about alcoholic beverages on Tuesday, by Kathie Lee and Hoda, acting increasingly drunken with each clue, and Alex seemed to think it was cute. WTF kind of message does that send on a FAMILY show? Ugh, ugh, ugh!
At 2:14 PM, September 19, 2013 The Ridger, FCD had this to say...: I worked late Tuesday and didn't see the show at all.

You cannot leave. You cannot drop the armor now. Why? Because you are needed, more than ever. You are mandatory to keep the energy flowing, the karmic vibrator buzzing, to keep the progressive and lucid half of the nation breathing and healthy and awake and ever reaching out to the half that's wallowing in fear and violence and homophobia and sexual dread, hoping to find harmony instead of cacophony, common ground instead of civil war, some sort of a shared love of a country so messy and internationally disrespected and openly confused its own president can't even speak the language.

After all, you don't hand over all your children the first time the flying monkeys bang on your door...

It's far from over. The tunnel is just a little darker -- and longer -- than we imagined.
