Friday Fun Tracks -Stringing you along edition

This week there are two tracks. Both feature strings in them. Strings to me make joyous music and really pop out at you when played. The first track is by bond, a female quartet of lovely ladies.



The second is David Garrett performing "Smooth Criminal"



Enjoy your weekend!

Not too shabby

All of the cool kids have found out who they write like, and I feel like I'm being sucked in compelled to find out who I write like. Apparently Samuel Clemens and I share something.

I write like
Mark Twain

I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!

I'm humbled.

You can undo anything these days it seems.  Atheists are now un-baptizing themselves with a hair dryer. 

Noted atheist  Edwin Kagan performed a ceremony in which people came forward to where Kagan would use a hair dryer to symbolically dry the baptismal water from their heads.  Isn't it ironic that atheists, who reject the idea of the symbolism of a baptizing, use a very similiar ceremony to reverse what has been done to them?

The money quote

"I was baptized Catholic. I don't remember any of it at all," said 24-year-old Cambridge Boxterman. "According to my mother, I screamed like a banshee ... so you can see that even as a young child I didn't want to be baptized. It's not fair. I was born atheist, and they were forcing me to become Catholic."

Um, skippy, yeah, not so much.  You were probably an infant when this  happened.  Life isn't fair either.   And you were born an atheist?  That statement implies that you were predetermined to become one.  Predetermination, a most metaphysical subject.

Whoever smelt it, dealt it

It seems that there is no truth to the rumor that Gaia ate beans eons ago and now needs all the Gas-X we can give her. 

Beans, beans, the magical fruit.....

Friday Fun Track - Spellbinding Editon

Exterminate White People?

Using a personal narrative is a favorite tactic of the progressive movement.  Kamau Kambon uses his personal narrative to call for the extermination of white people.  Not Europeans, not Americans, Not Aryans, but All. White. People. 

Pretty radical call for action, huh?  Watch the whole thing.

>Bobbi X is reporting that the Better Business Bureau has found the Brady Campaign to reduce gun violence forcibly disarm the common citizenry. Guidestar lists the Brady Bunch as a Civil Liberties advocate.

That right there is too damn funny. Saying that the Brady Campaign advocates for civil liberties is akin to saying Hitler really just wished the Jews peace.
