Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Tremblers

Well, a happy Monday morning to all of you out there in blogger land!  I do hope all of you had a nice day of respite from the travails of the world.

One of the things I did yesterday, other than lazing around, was finish going through Dave's notes and suggestions on The Body in Repose.  The input I receive from both him and the other three proofreaders / editors provides the essential polish for turning a rough manuscript into a published book.  Tuesday the manuscript will be on its way to Kris, whose finely tuned notes will only add to the sheen.  Oh.... shit... did you just feel that?  Was it a trembler?  Or is something beginning to happen down in the French Quarter?

Here's sort of what the final set up for my Alienware PC looks like (ignore my breakfast on the left).  I've changed the lighting from teal to purple, since I've never really been a teal person.  The only other change I'm contemplating is moving the unit to the left side of the desk.  Right now, I'm still up in the air about that move.


I saw an interesting article this morning regarding Evangelicals and how some of the younger generation are leaving because of the politicization of those older Cracker Jack Crazies.  There is trouble in that crazy, little world.  As one pastor questioned:  What do you do when you believe God put Trump in the White House... and then God loses?  Not only did He lose, He allowed The Big Lie to spread among the faithful.  I'm sure the idea of Trump being sent to destroy them is a concept that will never occur, I mean, how could their beliefs be wrong?  Now they are desperately trying to ignore the tremors ratchetting back and forth across the Evangelical movement.

  1. That computer looks cool. I have yet to pull the trigger on a new computer. I will probably wait till I do not have the use of my work computer anymore.

    1. It was expensive, but unlike the last computer, most of the upgrades that may be needed are easily installed, and hopefully this one will last more than 8 years.

  2. Love that quote about God putting Trump in the White House. Made me laugh!

  3. If you think "god" put THAT in the White House, I suggest you rethink your "god."

    1. I think they're rethinking the 'god sent Trump,' idea.

  4. Ok so the comments have changed in your Blogger? Quite different now.
    And love the little sprite who accompanies you in your online trips. Now I want one.
    I think your CPU is cool. I haven't had one in years (I have an iMac) but I understand gamers love those.
    I never rule out the crazy religulous idiots. They've been making money for YEARS and they won't let that cow die. They keep brainwashing children at an alarming rate...

    XOXO
