Jesus Is Coming, Look Busy

This is a joke from a t-shirt, but really not so funny.  Why is everyone so busy, but not getting any real work done?  Do you not believe Jesus when he says, "I will give you rest for your souls"?  He absolutely will.  Do you really enjoy mindless busiwork?  Because, if that's what you want, He'll let you do it for eternity.

One of my favorite movie experiences, was a cable show featuring an extended scene of a character simply staring into the camera.  The work of God is easy and fun.

Want to know if your kid is on drugs?

Quite interestingly, there are some very clear "signs" that drug users broadcast.

Weed:  Personally, I don't think anyone who hasn't graduated high school should be messing around with pot.  So, if you're a parent, and agree, here's what to look for if you think your kid is smoking reefer:

Bob Marley anything.  Nobody, I mean NOBODY listens to Bob Marley (raggae) until they've tried pot.  So that's one super-obvious thing.  Other less obvious "symbols" to look for (that I think are pretty reliable):  Worms, rabbits, tigers, the color green.  Also, if your kid is some kind of genius at art, or is in a band.  If your kid is in a band, look out---odds are he's selling weed on the side.

Speed, AKA meth, amphetamines, glass, ice, chalk.  Speed freaks display an unusual love for cats.  Look for:  bleached hair or a shaved head, interest in Nazis, spotless bedroom, lightbulbs disappearing (they use them as pipes), random nap-taking.

Heroin, AKA oxy contin, loratabs, opiates, smack.  Common signs:  horses, bears, cows (strangely enough), chickens, homosexual tendencies.

Ecstacy:  I call these pills "cobras" because they are pure venom.  Made of methamphetamines and something else that is probably heroin.  Signs:  tunnel vision, and major cluttering (stacking things instead of putting them away).

So, I hope this helps and saves some kids.

Oh yeah, cocaine, AKA crack.  Signs:  skunks, tuxedos, flames.  Crack smoke smells kind of like burning baking soda, and may cause a sinus headache.

I don't buy into the religion of "addiction" and think anyone can quit anything.  Withdrawal, my ass.

And of course there's alcohol.  I wouldn't worry about that.

Like to Follow Trends? Here's One.

Comic books have returned from obscurity and are now a super-hot trend.  Last time I was at Prairie Dog Comics (here in Wichita), almost every new release was sold-out.

I'm so glad the art in them has improved to purchase-worthy quality.  Really, how fun are comics?  All the excitement that was there as a kid is still there.

And let's hear it for Prairie Dog for holding on to the dream.

Once More, Then I'll Stop on this Topic

Didn't they used to call negative inflation, deflation?

Human Rights

Why does a schizophrenic have fewer rights than a felon?

What do I mean? I mean that at the mental hospital, the staff can FORCE you to take any medication THEY deem necessary. In a prison, they can't force prisoners to take any medication at all.

Why is this a problem you ask? Because drugs have SIDE EFFECTS. Many are unknown and can permanently change a patient's body chemistry.

One of these drugs is ATIVAN. I was FORCED to take this drug, by an RN and two security guards, because THEY THOUGHT I SHOULD. One dose was all it took to radically alter my body chemistry, maybe for life.

One week after being FORCED to take this drug, I started having severe panic attacks. I'll spare you the long story, but now I am basically ADDICTED to this drug, because without it the panic attacks return.

Why do criminals have more rights than the mentally ill???

Corruption and Cash

They say that power corrupts. Maybe. But one thing that corrupts society is cash. I look forward to a cashless society, where money is as abstract as math, and exists only as ones and zeros in computers.

Cash is dirty---filthy, really---and encourages panhandling, crack-heads and bad TV show plots. If you can't remember your PIN for your debit card, shame on you---you are retarded and should be deported to Antarctica.
