Seven Deadly Sins Haven't Killed Me Yet
Politics
Not So Random Screen Capture
Aug 19th
Mormon Convert Glenn Beck gave another of his “history lessons” today about Civil Rights and slavery. (Unfortunately video starts at the link.) I love cake and believe it should never be used as an agenda prop. Atrocious fondant covered top hats is another peeve.
SC Lt. Governor André Bauer & Foot-Washing For The Lord
Jul 13th
Politics bores me these days. However, something comes along and makes me want to praise Jeebus. When I listened to SC Lt. Governor André Bauer talk about giving the children shoes, the holy spirit bathed me in revelry. SC Lt. Governor André Bauer not only gives necessary shoes for the childrens, he also washes their feet. He provides socks too.
Enjoy this video of Bauer as he talks about his foot washing good works.
Now I understand why Huckabee likes him so much.
Update:Wonkette offers its special brand of political coverage. HA!
Sunday Morning Still Life
Mar 14th
There was a time I would watch the Sunday news shows intently and maybe upload video for a blog post.
When I watch now, all I see is this:
Emile Nolde "Mask Still Life III" (1911)
Evil Weather Prefers MSNBC
Feb 5th
When I am awake at this ridiculous hour of the morning, I like to watch my favorite comedy show. All this nasty weather has caused Fox and Friends to have a “poor quality signal.” It’s like any other day, but without moving pictures.
CNN is merely “no signal” and MSNBC, with the atrocious “Morning Joe,” comes in clearly.
Mother Nature, by means of snow/sleet/freezing rain/rain, only wants me to watch “Morning Joe.” All morning television sucks anyway.
Prop. up yourselves then…

In which CSM does a cherry picked bibile (not fixing that typo) dip to beat back the bigots with God’s word:
1 ¶ Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving.
Timothy 4: 1-4
I Rumble Elsewhere
Sep 23rd
Since everything bores me, I open a bottle of Prosecco and add a shot of my Concord grape infused vodka. I did a run of jelly and set aside some of the grapes for a vodka bath. Very tasty. I mashed the grapes lightly, tossed in a glass jar, and poured a fifth of Stoli over’em. Did I mention it is very tasty?
Here’s the Random Photo for the day. It wasn’t Photoshopped. My pissy camera made it look that way. Delightful. It might be a Flash Gordon or Barbarella evening.
Unless Buffy or Sue Ellen rule.
I’m having more fun on Twitter and Facebook than this hobby. (Links are on the right.) Here are my posts on Facebook for today:
Petulant Rumblings dehydrates celery, onion and carrots because he is “too” elitist for Lipton’s soup mix. HA! He also has yogurt draining in cheesecloth as a base for his veggie dip. Begone whey! Come Friday, he will have a tasty dip. And he wonders if he lacks patience.
Petulant Rumblings: In a taste test, 2 out of 3 kittens enjoy my whiskey-infused Angus Beef Jerky.
Petulant Rumblings amuses easily.
Petulant Rumblings enjoys a glass of Prosecco with a shot of Concord grape infused vodka. The grapes were set aside when I did a run of jelly. I thought they might enjoy a vodka bath for a month. Very tasty. Poor me. Nonsense will ensue. If ya open a bottle of Prosecco, ya have to finish it.
Happy National Punctuation Day! Tomorrow!!!!!!
My favorite comment left by me is when Julien gave this link and posted on Twitter and Facebook.
Wine is “passionate” after consumption and usually involves a partner. I do love a good Pinot. I haven’t tried this one. Descriptors in the wine world drive me batty. I taste a hint of chocolate and an undertone of a woodsy mushroom gathered by virgins. Let me swirl and spit for true appreciation.
The most important story of the day is Shad Marsh as the mayoral candidate for Asheville. It’s nice to hear a fresh voice in the political world.
5) Given the city’s current and likely upcoming budget shortfalls, how would you make ends meet?
Taxing misspellings on Tea Party signs. De facto decriminalization of marijuana combined with a tax on snack foods.
Shad also answers a question with more pertinent questions.
How much of a role, compared to its current one, should the city play in putting on festivals?
As little as possible. Do we really need any more washed-up grunge bands headlining here? Do we really need more shirtless frat boys puking in our streets and sullying our women with their wanton seed?
He speaketh truth. Next stop, Poland.
In Moments of Doubt
Sep 22nd
There is always Rudy; the better one.
The 21st century Rudy regurgitates words worse than Mr. Petulant. Dead Rudy is easier on the eyes. I know where everyone looks with this photo; that is why I like it so much.
