The WORD of the Week

Matthew 3:7-10

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.

And do not think you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.


Stupid Fact of the Week
There was only one civilian casualty during the three-day Battle of Gettysburg

01 November, 2005
He's Unstoppable!!!
4-0-0!!!

That's right, folks. Another W in the books for yours truly. And that's the kind of "W" I like.

Tonight's main event was a real nail biter... neck and neck almost the entire way... however, as I was fortunate enough to count the last crib, my neck started creeping away at the end... I landed in the stink hole, with moms and pops close behind, and it all came down to pegging... after pops closed to within a couple, I finally got the one point I needed to win on the last card in my hand. Oh the joy.

And now, a public service announcement for all rednecks in the reading area:

SLOW TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT!!!

That means if you are slow, and if you are a redneck you are the definition of "slow" on many levels, get your &*$%^'n truck over to the right so I can pass you on your left.

That's "RIGHT"...
as in: the direction
as in: the opposite of "left"
as in: if Blue, your brown dog, is sitting next to you on the passenger seat of your truck (below which the shotgun is stored), he is to your RIGHT!

This public service announcement brought to you by Rockel's raging temper and the Charlotte Mecklengburg county department of transportation.

This just in:
I spent a bit of time at the Creek this past weekend. Much fun. I got to reconnect with some old friends, as well as make some new ones. To one "new friend" in particular, I would like to say this:

Dear friend,
I am so very glad to have you as a friend. You are a delight and a blessing in this world. Treasure what you have, and know that I will always be a friend that you can turn to no matter what.
Your friend,
Rockel

In other news:
I held a baby this weekend. Yes. A living, breathing, dependent human being. The parents were not dead, or psychotic. However, they were exhausted and hungry, and I was more than happy to oblige. Rachel Pamela Wade is completely adorable and her parents are wonderful, loving people. They are also being aided by very supportive family members and community/church members. The whole thing is really quite beautiful.

Alright, I better talk about sports or something manly now...

I know... FUN WITH PICTURES!!!
Today's episode: Urinals!
Enjoy...

    Hey, that last picture can be purchased at Gander Mountain, along with the female adapter shown in picture. Each item must be purchased separately, however. Very useful for long trips, boating, and general use when there's private space, but no where to go #1.

Lyrics of the Week

ON THE NICKEL
by Tom Waits

("I'd like to do a new song here. This is eh, it's about downtown Los Angeles on 5th Street. And eh all the winos affectionately refer to it as The Nickel. So this is kind of a hobo's lullaby.")

sticks and stones will break my bones,
but i always will be true, and when
your mama is dead and gone,
i'll sing this lullabye just for you,
and what becomes of all the little boys,
who never comb their hair,
well they're lined up all around the block,
on the nickel over there.

so you better bring a bucket,
there is a hole in the pail,
and if you don't get my letter,
then you'll know that i'm in jail,
and what becomes of all the little boys,
who never say their prayers,
well they're sleepin' like a baby,
on the nickel over there.

and if you chew tobacco, and wish upon a star,
well you'll find out where the scarecrows sit,
just like punchlines between the cars,
and i know a place where a royal flush,
can never beat a pair, and even thomas jefferson,
is on the nickel over there.

so ring around the rosie, you're sleepin' in the rain,
and you're always late for supper,
and man you let me down again,
i thought i heard a mockingbird, roosevelt knows where,
you can skip the light, with grady tuck,
on the nickel over there.

so what becomes of all the little boys,
who run away from home,
well the world just keeps gettin' bigger,
once you get out on your own,
so here's to all the little boys,
the sandman takes you where,
you'll be sleepin' with a pillowman,
on the nickel over there.

so let's climb up through that button hole,
and we'll fall right up the stairs,
and i'll show you where the short dogs grow,
on the nickel over there.
