A-Rod, your timming stinks

NEW YORK --

Major League Baseball had this message for Alex Rodriguez and agent Scott Boras: shame on you.

Boras announced during Game 4 of the World Series on Sunday night that A-Rod was opting out of the final three seasons of his contract with the New York Yankees. The timing left baseball officials livid.

"We were very disappointed that Scott Boras would try to upstage our premier baseball event of the season with his announcement," Bob DuPuy, baseball's chief operating officer, said Monday in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

You know, I was wondering about the timing of that myself. Glad to see that MLB was not happy with it either. Must have had some Yankee blood in him still to time that the way he did.

Plastic Jesus

The Local - Church plans Lego sculpture of Jesus:

"A church in Västerås is asking parishioners to donate enough pieces of white Lego to create a life-size statue of Jesus. A local priest is leading the drive to construct a white plastic Jesus in the central Swedish town. Per Wilder estimates that 20,000 Lego blocks will be needed to complete the project."

When I was in my early teen years I remember a song about 'Plastic Jesus' riding on the dashboard of my car. Guess He just got bigger.

Why does this offend me?

Still possibe to win the title

Well, one of my favorite NASCAR drivers won his first race in the Bush Series

How much more stupid can things get

Hunters Told Not To Give To The Needy

Rick's Custom Processing in Collinsville is part of a statewide
program called "Hunters Against Hunger." Hunters, who kill more than
they plan to eat, can bring the deer here. For a small donation, Rick
will process the deer and give the meat to the hungry.


"They was all real happy and real thankful. Some of ‘em don't get to
eat much meat. This way, it's right at Christmas time or Thanksgiving
and it helps them. This way they can get a decent meal,” said Rick Hall
of Rick’s Custom Processing.


But, Hall says the good deed may have to end.


"The Tulsa County Health Department says it's against the law
because it's not USDA inspected meat. So, therefore, that means that
I'm not supposed to give to nobody in the public,” said Rick Hall of
Rick’s Custom Processing.

Here are people trying to do good. It is not costing the state anything, they feed the poor and pay for it themselves. Why does the state want to stop it. The man's shop is inspected, it just is not USDA. And only Tulsa County Health department is stopping it.

It just makes no sense. Especially since my brother-in-law slaughters his pigs sometimes and I get some of the meat from them. That is just good eating. And it is well taken care of by the slaughterhouse.

The clowns are getting sued, finally

BALTIMORE, Oct. 25 —

Before the March 2006 funeral for Lance Cpl.
Matthew A. Snyder, a marine who was killed in Iraq, protesters from the
Westboro Baptist Church, a tiny fundamentalist splinter group, picketed
the service with signs that read “God Hates You” and “Thank God for
Dead Soldiers.”

Albert Snyder, Corporal Snyder’s father, sued the church in
United States District Court here, claiming invasion of privacy and
intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Judge Richard D. Bennett, who is hearing the case, told the nine jurors
that there are limits on free speech protection, listing categories
that include vulgar, offensive and shocking statements, and instructed
jurors to decide “whether the defendant’s actions would be
highly offensive to a reasonable person, whether they were extreme and
outrageous, and whether these actions were so offensive and shocking as
to not be entitled to First Amendment protection,” according to
The A.P.

I think I am a reasonable person, and I am offended by this clowns. They do not represent Christ in any way shame or form that I know of. They have picketed the church that I go to because we have a ministry that reaches out to homosexuals that want to leave that lifestyle. All they want is a audience to play to. It is sad that they do what they do and inflict pain. I do not expect a court case to stop them, but maybe enough legal action will stop them. Maybe

You really have to wonder how a smark kid came from this mother!

FOXNews.com - Mom Charged With Drunken Driving After 8-Year-Old Son Calls 911 - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News:

"VANCOUVER, Wash. — A woman has been arrested for investigation of drunken driving and other charges following repeated calls to 911 from her 8-year-old son, who was in the car, Clark County sheriff's deputies said."

Smart Kid... Dumb mom!

Something to think about.

AH... For the good old days,

When Men were men and computer games were fun.....

Class Act by a great group of people

Playoff money going to coach's family - FOX23 News:

"The Drillers are one of the Rockies' minor league teams. Before the playoffs started, the Rockies players voted to give the Coolbaugh family a full share of their playoff winnings, and now that they're in the World Series that could be as much as nearly $400,000.
It's a tragedy Tulsa Drillers Clubhouse Manager Greg Criser will remember for the rest of his life. “I've never come close to dealing with something like that."
Drillers Coach Mike Coolbaugh was killed when he was hit by a line drive. Three months later Greg still has two of Mike's jerseys. “I'm going to get them framed and we're going to hang them in the clubhouse forever for the guys."
But as tough as Mike's death has been on Greg, he can't imagine what its been like for Mike's family. “My heart goes out to them because they have the two little ones and the baby on the way, which should be due anytime now."
The word of the tragedy quickly spread throughout the Rockies organization, all the way to the big league team in Colorado. "

While I am a Red Sox fan though and through, if the Sox make it to the Series, it may be hard to root for them. This is a class thing to do for this family that lost their father through a freak accident as he coached First Base for the Tulsa Drillers. May they be blessed for what they are doing.

On the other hand....

This is COOL!

This is so wrong....

So VERY wrong....

Some Adults just make me angry!!!!!

MyFox New York | Fox 5 Exclusive: Child Thief in Seaside Heights:

"This Fox 5 exclusive is incredible not because of the crime itself but because of who the thief is -- a little girl not old enough to go to kindergarten, but what she's learning is frightening. And it raises serious questions about the adult who is with her."

Watch the video, it is just sick!!

Prayer requested for my son.

The Associated Press: Powerful Earthquake Kills 5 in Indonesia:

"The quake could be felt in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, 375 miles away, where office workers streamed down the stairwells of tall, swaying buildings. It also caused tall buildings to sway in neighboring Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
The undersea quake hit at about 6:10 p.m. (7:10 a.m. EDT), the U.S. Geological Survey said. It was centered 80 miles southwest of Sumatra island at a depth of 18.6 miles."

My son Gabe is in Jakarta and I did get an email from him that all is well with his wife and my two grand-sons. Please be in prayer for them as this is the 2nd quake they have been through in about 1 month.

Kind of wonder what God was thinking sometime???

"ENID, Okla. (AP) -- Detectives arrested a 12-year-old girl and her 10-year-old sister on a kidnapping complaint on Thursday after they allegedly abducted their neighbor's 1-year-old son and held him for $200,000 ransom.

I am not sure what I can say to add to this. A 12 year old and a 10 year old. How much you want to bet mom makes excuses for them....

Thor in Oklahoma

CAPTAIN COMICS: Mighty Thor returns | TheNewsTribune.com | Tacoma, WA: "

And with 'Thor' No. 1 shipping July 5, he's back -- in Oklahoma. How? Why? I asked editor Warren Simons, who answered obliquely, 'There is a great line in the first issue that addresses Ragnarok and its role in Norse mythology: 'The cycle of Ragnarok was what happened to you, it's not who you are.''"
As to the location, there are those who argue the Vikings made it as far as Oklahoma, and left rune stones there (Google it, if you don't believe me). Which is one key difference from the old series, that the Norse Gods will be hanging out a hammer's throw from Muskogee, and interacting with "flyover land" mortals on a regular basis.

As a fan of comics when I was a kid and in teens and 20's I can not believe that we are actually getting a comic book star here in Oklahoma. I wonder where the guy will hang out. Maybe he can strike the Belvidere with his hammer and bring it back to its original state (just joking guys).

One exception: Thor's outfit has been altered a bit, thanks to writer J. Michael Straczynski and artist Olivier Coipel. Simons describes the new look as "warrior's garb -- something that a warrior might wear into battle."

Wow, JMS as a writer. 'Loved Babylon 5' so I am sure it will be good. May have to go find the issue someplace.

But the thunder will still be there. And it's about time -- comics fans have missed our favorite Thunder God, and the Oklahoma farmers can use the rain!

Well, the author of the article should look into the current situation. We need the Thunder God to stop the rain. I am about ready to build an ark in my back yard. Statistics in OK have been kept since the 1890s, and they say that this past June was the coolest on record. That is because we had like 29 days of rain.
