Disclaimer

If you do not know me (I mean, really know me) then there is something you need to understand before you read this blog: I value the truth above everything else... except a good laugh. A good laugh will almost always beat the truth as far as I’m concerned. Everything you read on this blog will be true, somewhat true, or something I made up in an effort to get a laugh. Sometimes I will go on a rant that I don’t really mean (or only kind of mean). Sometimes I will mean what I write only to completely change my mind a year, month, or day later. Such is life. By reading this blog you agree not to get offended by anything I write (or, at the very least, you agree not to tell me or anyone else that you are offended). It is worth noting that my employer does not endorse my blog (or even read it, to tell you the truth). The Wife also does not endorse my blog (though she will read it from time to time). I am not paid to write this... it’s just my way of giving back to the community. I have, and will, touch on a wide range of subjects and will give my opinion on these subjects. Again, most of what I say is for laughs but every now and then I will say what I really think and feel (see my views on Westboro Baptist Cult). How will you know when I’m serious and when I’m trying to get a laugh? You’ll know. And if you don’t know, well... maybe this isn’t the best thing for you to be reading. So, sit back, read and enjoy. Leave comments if you want and don’t be afraid to publicly follow me.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Know Your Medal of Honor Recipients:

Sergeant Francis C. Green (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions during 1868 and 1869, in Arizon. His citation reads:

Bravery in action.

Corporal George Green (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on November 25, 1863, at Missionary Ridge, Tennessee. His citation reads:

Scaled the enemy's works and in a hand-to-hand fight helped capture the flag of the 18th Alabama Infantry (C.S.A.).

Major John Green (US Army) received his Medal of Honor for his actions on January 17, 1873, at the Lava Beds, California. His citation reads:

In order to reassure his command, this officer, in the most fearless manner and exposed to very great danger, walked in front of the line; the command, thus encouraged, advanced over the lava upon the Indians who were concealed among the rocks.


Word is the NCAA is really going to stick it to Penn State. I think this would be a mistake. I know what went on there was very bad and very wrong… but I don’t think it’s the NCAA’s place to hand out the punishment. Also, I believe everyone who did wrong is now gone from there (including the AD, President and Chairman of the Board of Trustees from that time). The only people left to deal with the punishment are the players who didn’t do anything wrong. So… I think it would be wrong to do anything else to them (at least anything huge, like the Death Penalty).

If the NCAA does bring down a heavy punishment, I think all athletes at the school should be able to transfer NOW and not have to sit out.


The I’m just sayin… Bible Verse of the Week
1 Corinthians 13:4-7

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
