Today’s quote is exactly right:
There is only one success – to be able to spend your life in your own way.
Christopher Morley
In other news, there are some things I simply must mock:
1. Muslims worldwide are pissed off that the Pope quoted a Medieval text in which Islam is not shown in a loving light. The Pope’s statement: “He said, I quote, ‘Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.'” So, Muslims are pissed by a quote from a quote? And how do they show their loving nonviolent ways? With violence and outrage, of course! Asshats. How stupid must you be to deny culpability then turn around and DO MORE VIOLENT THINGS?? Asshats, every last one of them, I tell you.
2. Spinach is now verboten for the US thanks to nasty ass water used to irrigate the largest spinach farm in the country. That in itself is not particularly funny, but when you find out that the name of the company who has caused the ruckus is called Natural Selection, now THAT’S funny!! LOL! I shit you not!
Their motto: If you can survive Natural Selection, you’re good for the species!
On a more personal note, my desire to be rid of the offensive organ led to actual decent info from June! I was telling her my tale of uterine woe and she told me about a new procedure to end such suffering. It’s a type of endometrial ablation involving a balloon and hot water. No, I’m NOT kidding! So, this is the procedure I shall procure to rid myself of the hurtful and totally unnecessary visits from Aunt Flo. Yay! [It’s 09 and the suffering continues. Feh. -A]
How’s that for a mixed bag post? :-)
