Chortling obscenely to myself

“I went to bring something to my son in Central Square (a commercial area in Cambridge) and saw some pretty beligerant people with big posters warning us about our souls.

One of them said:

"Jesus Came,
Jesus Died,
Jesus has arisen,
Jesus will come again"

all of the sudden, I thought of what the sign would say if I substituted "sineP" (backwards) for "Jesus." I chortled as I resisted the unkind impulse to go up to the guy holding the sign and say "My #&%!$ knows how he feels, the same thing happened with my wife last night."

My son was late, so I just amused myself with evil thoughts.”

“Don't touch it Mom and Dad! That's concentrated evil!”

“I just don't understand how those folks think shouting and sign waving is going to do anything other than piss people off. OTOH, John the Baptist liked to do a little shoutin'.”

“Nice.
Time Bandits.”

“Time Bandits? Guess I don't get the reference.

The title made me thing of George Harrison.

While my guitar gently weeps.

I know it doesn't make sense, but it's what came to mind.”

“I figure that if I kept beating my dog with my bible, that pretty soon she'd cringe and snarl whenever anyone picked it up.

My grandfather was a minister in Texas and a man of deep faith, but he didn't beat on peoople with his faith. I did run into a few too many Bible thumpers in college, and have this negative reaction ever since.

On the other hand, there is a Southern Baptist minister (yeah we have Southern Baptists in New England) who is a truly fine man who has brought great life and spirit into his church. He married us in May.”

“I was referring to Tilts comment”

“I bet ped's p e n i s never flipped over tables down at the Temple!

But then again, the thought of his p e n i s being nailed to a cross does bring a smile to my fce. LOL!”

“Gee, thanks Nigal.”

“Midnight sunshine silent thunder
Sky as black as day
Only a dream away

“I wouldn’t call him forked tongue but I would go out on a limb and call him a phucking liar with no moral compass.

"I was a war hero…I killed old men, women and children including a baby and burned villages to the ground…I threw my metals…I didn’t throw my metals…I threw them but they weren’t mine…OK, they were mine but they were ribbons…I have 5 SUVs…No I don’t, my family has them…I voted FOR the $87 billion…but that was BEFORE I voted AGAINST it…Now is not the time for on-the-job training and I don’t know if John Edwards wasn’t in diapers when I came home from Vietnam…I choose John Edwards as my running mate!"”

“Please disregard the above slur as it was meant for the other thread...well, I take that back. This type of message has to get out.

Kerry on guys!”

“I've thought about throwing paint on the signs of those abrotion protesters who hold up those 6'x4' pics of an aborted third trimester foetus across from where I get my coffee with my friends and their two healthy, loved babies.”

“"Jesus Christ died for nothing, I suppose..."

So destroying someone's property falls under your freedom of speech?”

“Since Rosey only thinks about and doesn't do it, perhaps he doesn't feel it falls under his idea of freedom of speech.

Otherwise, we could infer things about you based on what you chose to think about and describe.”

“fortunately in this lifetime we are judged by the actions that we take, by what we are thinking.

I would have been in prisoned long ago otherwise. It's that stink'in think'in”

“Who are the brain police?”

“Take the stick out of yer butt ped. It was a rhetorical observation.”

“So roseymonster fantasizes about throwing paint on signs and Nigal fantasizes about things in pedxing's anus. How revealing.”

“Weak V...very weak. What? You posting from the third grade again? LOL!”

“I've actually been toying with the idea of making a caustic solution out of distilled and concentrated poison oak, loading it into a supersoaker and doing a drive-by.

That way they can keep right on with their free speech. They'll just be a little distracted by all the itching...”

“Gee Nigal --- didja ever think I was simply showing the silliness of your rhetoric?

BTW: I hope I do get to hike with you one day, but what with yer fantasized nails coming in one end, and the stick you imagine in the other, I will definitely plan on staying out of your basement.”

“LOL! Okaaaaay. Believe it or not I really do not sit around and think of ped all day. Believe it or not.”

“Hey, you could do worse than to contemplate Ped. That kind of meditation probably gets you through the fourth chakra.”
