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.

My Fellow Peeps...
You have spoken! You have Cried Out!

Picture me in front of you... vocalizing the following words to you... and... as you do so... read my lips...

Your Cries Have NOT Fallen On Deaf Ears!!!

In the coming days I will approach the following comments, questions, and ponderings:

- "You should post a 'Best Run Mix' submission thingy."

- "Fed. Welfare/Medicare/Medicaid: very necessary;" "Welfare a big fucking NO!!!!" "Very necessary. (Although it shouldn't have to be);" "...THE CHURCH!)"

- "So, Rockel, since this is your blog... why are you for the death penalty?"

Probably in that order (order of importance, as you can see), but don't hold your breath.

Possibilities for postings also include:

- "Individuals: Generally bad, but have random acts of good."

- "Borders: Closed, Closed, Closed!"

- "Rockel. Dude, you rock so hard. Tell me, how is it possible for someone to rock as hard as you?"

And possibly a study on just how many times one must run on a busy, rural, 2-lane "highway," completely disconnected from reality via iPod, before death - as Greg put it - "happens."

So... there you have it... look for those... and possibly more... or just as easily less, I suppose...

Peace, Love, and... the Lord's Day tomorrow... I'll throw in an update of my new church at some point... Word.

    i gotta say, my cries must have hit your deaf ears. Maybe they fell on your nose by mistake. Just wanted to know what you thought of that article.

    I thought the article was interesting, compelling, and brief. And, no surprise to you, I was skeptical of several items, such as what evidence the NIST investigators studied. I therfore set out to read their report. However, I was unable to find the report that actually dealt with 7 WTC, and found reading their initial WTC report tedious and uninformative. It also caused my computer to lock up several times. I may get back to it.

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.
