Seen in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania today around 2:00pm.
So I guess all this political stuff doesn’t really matter.
What are you doing this weekend?

I want first dibs on their vehicle on May 21!! It looks a hell of a lot nicer than my car.
As for the weekend, gonna watch it rain…….again. 2-plus inches forecast. And taxes……gotta do those taxes. Must give my fair share so Obama can fund his Revolutionary Guard that is going to take over the country in 2012 and install him as supreme dictator for life. I know that’s what it’s for because Mark Levin told me so. And I know Levin doesn’t lie.
I’m guessing someone else must have seen this car since they drove it up from Florida.
I’d be tempted to have left a note on that car asking who saved him/her from hell(Rick Scott’s Florida).
so excited for the May 21 rapture, all the useless born agains go away!
Anyway, this weekend, I’m moving the lady to NY, part 2; recording with the dill pickles; and playing the [kid-friendly] M-Room’s Sunday Brunch with Delco Nightingale and preparing for our trip to Vega$ and Hollywood.
your music is really picking up. I am really happy for you.
Kid-friendly, eh?
yeah, there were kids there last time, definitely.
BTW, those 5/21 billboards are EVERYWHERE. There’s one as you drive over the Whitman into Philly.
It’s a win-win: if the world’s coming to an end, my troubles are over. And if it’s not, there are new people to point and laugh at!
Shit. I forgot about this and I just paid my taxes. I could have partied like it is May 21 for the next five weeks and now I’m broke.
You just made me laugh out loud. 🙂
Who is your favorite apostle? Mine is Judas. He saw a chance to make a profit and took it. He was a true capitalist.
.
Jesus and the Apostles always struck me as a good name for a band.
Anyway, I am shleppin’ the dog to the vet for his yearly shots, and then cheerin’ my boy on in little league baseball. Plus, we got another Dexter DVD comin’ in from Netflix on Saturday, so that should do it.
We give our own shots. Or I should say; it’s my job to give the shots. It’s strange because my wife is a dentist and thinks nothing of giving shots to patients, but cannot do it to the cats. I just ‘grab and stab’.
.
Where do you get the medicine? I thought one needed a prescription or something (shot for bordetella and something else, I forget).
Lots of places. Dr foster and smith and revival;

Apparently you only need a prescription for rabies.

Thanks! That’ll save me some $$ next time.
The funny thing is it is highly likely that Judas is falsely accused of betraying Jesus. He is supposed to have simply pointed out that Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane and there is no implication that Jesus was trying to hide. Not much of a betrayal there, in my book. Certainly not the type of thing that should even be worthy of remuneration. But since there simply had to be fulfillment of the narrative that Jesus was to be betrayed, it was necessary to finger someone. So hey, Judas was as good as anyone in the minds of the authors, who wrote the account many decades later.
If you ask me, I’d say he’s eligible for a presidential pardon.
Feh. Judas is a literary character who likely never actually existed. Paul certainly didn’t talk about anyone named Judas. Judas is just a stand-in for “the Jews” betraying Jesus – his name is a dead give away on that front.
And don’t get me started on the literary and metaphorical nature of the Gospels (which, again, Paul seems to have no knowledge of) that people read right past because they treat them as history instead of as religious documents written with a Point of View.
There is really no evidence that Paul even knew anything about the death of Jesus or the resurrection. When you ask a Christian to find anything that even implies that Paul knew the first thing about anything related to the purported life of Jesus or his miracles, they look at you like you’re an idiot. But not once has anyone ever come back to me with any evidence. Paul was preaching a message but had no understanding about anything supposedly related to its origins. He was clueless.
But you will never, ever hear this discussed in polite religious circles. It destroys the whole Christian narrative. And you know we can’t have that.
Arguing about fairytales is kind of a waste of time. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that, if you are in to fairytales.)
Oh, I don’t argue because evidence does not even dent the certainty of these people. But I also don’t want a person to just assume that everyone they encounter believes these silly stories. Sadly, though, the vast majority of Americans are heavily into these fairy tales and any politician in this country who wants to get elected has to give complete deference and respect to said fairy tales if they want to have any hope at all of being successful. Give even a whiff of evidence that you might not believe these things and your campaign hopes are toast. The third rail of politics is no longer Social Security, it’s religious faith.
Whoever’s funding the May 21 armageddeon sect, they also have enough money for an enormous billboard in North Seattle. I hope it’s still there at the end of next month. (After all, why should the sponsors make arrangements to have it taken down on May 22 when the world will have ended?)
I’ll be out of doors this weekend, continuing spring clean-up after the snows & planting seeds.
IOW, I’m meeting my god. As usual.
Oh, snap! On our anniversary!
Guess I’ll have to ask the wife what she wants before the rapture.
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
Is Beck still pitching gold?
Is so, why?
But I guess this explains why he’s quitting the show.
One of my most favoritest Six Feet Under opening death scenes EVER: Rapture
Two stoned guys in a pickup truck delivering helium-filled vinyl sex dolls to a party have a near miss and hit the brakes. Meanwhile, a block or two away, a crazy religious nut-job lady is driving her car and notices The Rapture taking place in front of her and reflexively joins in on the Rapture Action.
Considering the topic at hand, it just seemed appropriate.
I’ve seen a car around my little ole town of Muskegon, MI with a similar sign. I looked for tinfoil on his head as I passed.
May 21 is when this Pontiac’s engine reaches a stage of planned obsolescence. Preferably back in Florida.
