It's a crazy world out there and only the craziness has found me.Berleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08545397768189922845noreply@blogger.comBlogger720125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958302326764913766.post-43571807563530336282015-06-11T10:05:00.002-05:002015-06-11T10:05:52.267-05:00How Some Christians are Just Messed Up. <br />
<div class="title">
<a href="http://citynews.com.au/2015/gay-law-change-may-force-us-to-divorce/" target="_blank">Australian Couple Says They'll Get Divorced If Same-Sex Marriage Is Legalized</a></div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
So I read this today. My head spun in so many different directions. They are going to get divorced, but stay together and continue to have children (if God wills this). There are so many things wrong here. For one, would they not be breaking a few "biblical laws" or two doing this? Lying? Living in sin? Having sex outside marriage? Unwed mother? </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
Now their minds might just be on some greater good path, but honestly, what are they teaching their children? <i>Our marriage was unimportant because a government said it was?</i> Or so they think thats what the new law would mean. They are teaching their children how to be hypocrites - the bible says to love & accept everyone, but not those who want to get married, nope, we can't love them. They don't deserve love. Pretty unchristianlike if you ask me. </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
When stories/subjects like this come up, I like to ask one question and it usually gives me my answer.</div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhccTlYqOfNilfopR7tVVnRCUg7z2q3c55NFb4una5W3s7glS7UIGSUioIWvg-VeyO7udsZlY_kUuvnd8W4Iw0euWmXkZAOvL6yMZE02ELk8ra4QShWkqJnqJpiWB2k8LW9mAVsFdlQWvGl/s1600/d0f5f9da684b5ab0c3a0fc8ffd99df74.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhccTlYqOfNilfopR7tVVnRCUg7z2q3c55NFb4una5W3s7glS7UIGSUioIWvg-VeyO7udsZlY_kUuvnd8W4Iw0euWmXkZAOvL6yMZE02ELk8ra4QShWkqJnqJpiWB2k8LW9mAVsFdlQWvGl/s1600/d0f5f9da684b5ab0c3a0fc8ffd99df74.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="title">
If two men/women were walking down a street and came upon Jesus. Yes, Jesus. Lets pretend he came back just at that moment. The two men/women were walking hand in hand and so much in love. <i><b>What would Jesus do? </b></i>Would he point at them, tell them how evil they are, shame them? Would he throw stones at them and scream at how disgusting and wrong they are? </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
Not the Jesus I know. </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
He would accept them, love them and reach out his arms and hug them. </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
Thats what we all should do. Let them marry, let them live, let them have children. </div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
Oh wait... children. How dare we allow a child to have 2 mothers and no father, what kind of life would that be? Lets make them grow up like so many others, with only 1 mother and a weekend father. Yeah, let do that, because that is so much better than 2 loving PARENTS.</div>
<div class="title">
<br /></div>
<div class="title">
Maybe, just maybe, if more Christians would act like Jesus would, we would live in a more loving world instead of this judgmental, mean, offensive place we call home. </div>

Not something you would say to someone, is it? Ok, maybe a dog maybe. A chunky dog. But a human? No, you would never say it. But think about this for a second... of all the things you wouldn't say to a fat person, why would you say basically the same thing to a skinny person?<br />
<br />
I have good genes. And one hell of a metabolism. I am lucky, I know that. I eat at least... and I mean, at least... 2 king size candy bars everyday. I munch on junk all day long. I drink soda and rarely drink water. Somehow all my blood work is normal and I'm healthy. Am I bragging? <b>No.</b> What I am saying is... <i>I can do these things</i>, so I do them. I don't do it to flaunt it, I do it because <i>I don't know any different</i>. I've always been able to. I don't know how to watch calories or fat grams. <br />
<br />
But being skinny sucks. The comments suck. After 40some years of hearing the same stuff over and over again, it really sucks.<br />
<br />
Things I hear that you would never say to a fat person:<br />
<br />
Oh my god, how can you eat that candy bar? <br />
You are what jeans size? That makes me sick.<br />
If I ate all that, I'd be twice your size!<br />
<br />
.....those things you would never say to a fat person, would you? Why is is ok to say to someone who is skinny? Did you ever stop and wonder if that skinny person isn't trying to gain weight? It's difficult to gain weight if your body doesn't want to. Yeah, I know, you can eat what I eat and gain 20lbs, I get that. <b>But I can't. </b><br />
<br />
I know people say it out of jealousy or that they wish they could be skinny, but think about it next time you make a comment to a skinny person.... it doesn't make the skinny person feel good, it makes them feel guilty and self conscious. <br />

Besides the fact that I spelled it wrong and it now irritating as hell to me, it's amazing how that wish came true.<br />
<br />
Ok, not really. Saki didn't magically turn into another breed, but this happened....<br />

I finally got my Shepherd. My Knucklehead. Shortly after that blog post, actually. Brought him home when he was a wee little puppy... he'll be 4 this August. What a trip that has been! Ever known a claustrophobic, highest fear anxiety dog known to man? That's my Knuckles. Smarter than any dog I've even known, but his shadow will scare the crap out of him. <br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><i><b>1. Would you rather go into the past and meet your ancestors or go into the future and meet your great-great grandchildren?</b></i></span> Past. Simple answer. There's a certain great-great grandmother that rumor has it was an indian, but my research shows nothing. Either they lied in the census records or the rumors are false. But how can my dad's memory of an old blind indian woman in a rocking chair be false? I'd meet her... and find out where she comes from. <b><i></i></b></div>

<br />

<br />
<i><b>9. Would you rather lose your vision or your hearing?</b></i> I can't hear my daughter's photography or hear my other daughters drawings. No brainer. <br />
<br />
<i><b>10. Would you rather work more hours per day, but fewer days or work

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">One of the subjects that I've been wanting to rant about is the main one of this week... or one of the main ones... Caitlyn Jenner. Not so much her, but something I heard someone say. The comment went something like this: </span><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">"He's 65 years old, been married, has how many kids, stepfather to other kids, whats the point of doing it now?"</span></i><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Right. <b>Whats the point?</b> I mean, Bruce Jenner was 65 years old (I think, I'm too lazy to actually go check on the age). Bruce Jenner lived his life for everyone ... and I mean everyone ... his family, his children, his PUBLIC. He lived for everyone... everyone except </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">that most important person. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So what if he's 65 now? Should he seriously just "get over it" and live the rest of his life in a lie and unhappy with who he is because he's dealt with it his entire life anyway? I guess maybe he should. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Who do we live for anyway? Do we pick a few people and <i>only</i> live for them? Do we live for our parents? Our spouse? Our children? Our best friend? Who do you live for? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Who should Bruce Jenner have lived for? I think he did a fine job living for everyone. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Now it's Caitlyn's turn. Live your life.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I sometimes wonder if people are all pissed off because she is a damn hot woman... especially for her age! </span>Berleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08545397768189922845noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958302326764913766.post-73005795380193830442015-06-08T07:54:00.001-05:002015-06-08T07:54:26.175-05:00Stranger. So I remembered the other day that I had this blog. Wow, it's been awhile. Sort of fun reading back and seeing how much things have changed in these last few years.<br />
Thinking this blog is going to take a turn... not into the "memes" anymore, do they even exist anymore? The word "meme" has taken a new definition from what I've seen. There are many rants that I love to go off on... random stuff. Lord knows I'm random. My Facebook friends don't seem to like all my ranting... either that or they do, but are afraid to say so because someone might that they like it - or have the same opinion as me - or don't want to get into a fight with me. Fighting over opinions is stupid, but people still like to do it.<br />
<br />

Stupid cat. </div><div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><img src="http://i655.photobucket.com/albums/uu277/kittyobsessed/meetagain-1.jpg" /></div>Berleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08545397768189922845noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958302326764913766.post-73786523537084449792011-03-16T19:42:00.003-05:002011-03-16T19:49:34.425-05:00Pass the paste, please<div><span class="Apple-style-span"><div style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204); font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; ">The TT questions are brought to you by<span style="font-weight: bold; "> </span><b><span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0); ">Berleen</span><span style="font-weight: bold; ">, </span></b>the color of<b><span style="font-weight: bold; "> <span class="Apple-style-span">melting snow</span></span> </b>and the<b><span style="font-weight: bold; "> </span><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-weight: bold; ">number 456</span></b><b><span style="color: red; ">.</span>.</b></div><div style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204); font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: normal; "><h3 class="post-title entry-title" style="margin-top: 0.25em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-left: 0px; font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.4em; color: rgb(170, 221, 153); "><a href="http://thursdaythunks.blogspot.com/2011/03/pass-paste-please.html">Pass the paste, please</a></h3></span></div><div style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204); font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; ">1.

This is a lesson Phillip Howell, 25, learned the hard way this past Presidents' Day when he went to the memorial all prepared and was told by the police that he would have to take his speech elsewhere.<br /><br />Howell was confused as to why it is actually illegal to read the words carved into the memorial’s wall in a loud voice, he told the Daily Caller, but he obeyed. Instead, the 6-foot-4 Howell, who looks a lot like Abe Lincoln himself, moved to the bottom of the steps and delivered the rest of the speech. Simple, right?<br /><br />Howell may have gotten around the law (sort of, anyway), but obscure and bizarre laws are not unique to Washington, DC. Here are 10 strange laws that still stand around the country:<br /><br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">Alabama</strong>, it's illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while operating a vehicle: So, um, duh? Does anyone think this SHOULD be legal? Did we really need a law telling us this?<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">Massachusetts</strong>, candy may not contain more than 1% of alcohol. While the law makes sense to me having just eaten some pretty potent chocolate liquor balls in Belgium, it sounds a little strange.<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">New Jersey</strong>, it's illegal to pump your own gas.<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">New Mexico</strong>, "idiots" cannot vote. Don't believe me? Read it: "Every citizen of the United States, who is over the age of twenty-one years, and has resided in New Mexico twelve months, in the county ninety days, and in the precinct in which he offers to vote thirty days, next preceding the election, except idiots, insane persons, and persons convicted of a felonious or infamous crime unless restored to political rights, shall be qualified to vote at all elections for public officers."<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">Ohio</strong>, it's illegal to mistreat anything of great importance.<br />In<strong style="font-weight: bold; "> Arizona,</strong> hunting camels is prohibited. Because there are so many camels?<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">South Carolina,</strong> you must be 18 to play pinball. Obviously this one is because of the many wild and crazy pinball machines in other states, right?<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">Maryland</strong>, you may not have oral or anal sex. Good thing Clinton was technically in DC, no?<br />In<strong style="font-weight: bold; "> Florida, </strong>it's illegal to sell your children, which begs the question: Is it legal somewhere else?<br />In <strong style="font-weight: bold; ">Pennsylvania</strong>, until 2002, one was not allowed to swear in front of women and children.<br /><br />So much for land of the free. Although my favorite law isn't listed.... It is illegal to walk across the Minnesota-Wisconsin border with a duck on your head. <div><br /></div><img src="http://i655.photobucket.com/albums/uu277/kittyobsessed/meetagain-1.jpg" /></div>Berleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08545397768189922845noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958302326764913766.post-86998141761302451742011-02-23T16:10:00.001-06:002011-02-23T16:13:06.837-06:00Do farts really stink?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpUnBvriheg_zEEjAu4bnLYvYPgs9j2nN86L8fAgGzGli9oWSW7RPSPlvQIoSK0LjppNOKci1AXaZ91mDhdf15X5vxV2I-9KmuoyOhIXzmIGxZcCVau94mnr2DfYIRQUtRq5C1eGazisQM/s1600/stinky_woman.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 193px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpUnBvriheg_zEEjAu4bnLYvYPgs9j2nN86L8fAgGzGli9oWSW7RPSPlvQIoSK0LjppNOKci1AXaZ91mDhdf15X5vxV2I-9KmuoyOhIXzmIGxZcCVau94mnr2DfYIRQUtRq5C1eGazisQM/s200/stinky_woman.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577011303521092434" /></a>Do farts really stink or are we just conditioned to believe that they do?<div><br />I was just thinking about this because of a show I watched the other day. We are genetically made to think certain parts of the opposite sex are attractive for procreation purposes. Scents of people are the same way. They went on to say how the view of what is attractive has changed over the years, but in some parts of the world it hasn't. Then it got me thinking of other things that we are conditioned to think... like how years ago girls got married & started a family in their teenage years, etc. Don't ask me how it got me thinking about farts (probably because the cat farted, who knows)... but who decided that farts stink? And that flowers smell good? If you think about it, many animals go based off the smell of that particular area but yet we find it repulsive.<br /></div>Berleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08545397768189922845noreply@blogger.com0
