Fuck a Cow Times Two!!!!!!

GOD WANTED TRUMP TO BE PRESIDENT!!!!! So says Sarah Sanders.

Here's a great mix!!! CBN (yes, Pat Robertson), Sarah Sanders, God, religion, and
Trump. Just when I thought it couldn't get weirder, dang...it does. Here's the article from CNN.

Yes, there are so many comments I could make: God wanted a narcissistic, grandiose, liar, with no intellectual curiosity. Possibly even someone who is barely literate. Someone who is only concerned with himself and no others. Surely, we couldn't have a God this stupid, could we????

An Incomplete Guide to Spotting Scams, Fakes, and Frauds!

OK, so what got me fired up to make this post?

I had an email in my junk file with the subject line reading, South Caroline doctor exposes.... 

My first thoughts.

• Gotta be a chiropractor
• The product is some bullshit do-nothing supplement
• It's going to be pricey
• There's going to be a disclaimer saying the product does nothing
• There will be glowing testimonials about how the product has changed people's lives
• May well state the product is natural
• Will most likely imply it's some kind of magic stuff that others in the supplement business don't want you to know about

OK, so what did I find? How did I do?

• Though I wasn't shocked I was surprised that it was an MD hawking the wares
• Other than it being an MD promoting the magic pill, everything else from my above list was there.

OK, I need to move on.

FROM THE WEBSITE!!!
There are a lot of people out there who wouldn’t like me sharing this critical information with you…And it’s possible this site could be taken down…
That's why if your health truly matters to you…
Pay attention to every word that I say…

OK, folks, "And it’s possible this site could be taken down…" Amazing, just who is going to take the site down? The Russkies?

What follows is their disclaimer notice. While on one hand, they promote their product in glowing and somewhat-magical rhetoric, they then attach the following which is basically saying, "This crap don't work."

Fuck a Cow!!!!! Energy Healing Strikes Again. Actually, it Seems as if this Stuff is Like Whack a Mole.

There are times when I get an idea for a comment or posting or whatever you want to call it and I sit down and write it and that's that. More often though, I get an idea and save it as a draft. The draft folder just sits here on my blog until I finish it. As I type this I have 341 articles/comments posted and 193 saved as drafts. Dang, that's a lot.

So, where am I going with this?  Life is finite. From the moment we're born the clock is ticking and we're facing the end if you will. And, unless we visit psychics or astrologers, or have Baby Jesus on our speed dial, that last or end date is not known.

So, I guess we could ask would a thinking person parcel out the time that's left, try to make the best use of it, and as some say, remember that all time is precious. And, what would constitute the best use of our time? Would watching a mindless TV program that we say provides enjoyment and entertainment have the same value as reading a history book, solving a crossword, putting together an airplane model, going for a walk, spending time in a church praying, working on a stamp collection, writing a letter to an elderly aunt, or sitting in a bar slurping up the suds? What do you folks think?

OK, now back to the subject. As I'm surely not a trained journalist, my writing style, to use that term, varies with how pissed-off I am. You know, how much venom I spew and how often I use the F-word. When I put this in my draft folder I was truly ticked off, but as I write this now I'm sort of normal, whatever that may mean. So, here goes.

The catalyst for most of my rants is to try to get folks' attention and hope that they'll stop pissing their money away on chiropractors, fuckin' Reiki masters, psychics, astrologers, and so on. Also, it'd be nice if some of you religious folks open your eyes and tell your priest, minister, or preacher to fuck off!

OK, back to the subject at hand, energy healing. Now, if you folks don't know what energy healing is take a look here at one of my comments.

There's a lady, Rachel, who writes about Kindle Fires. Yes, Amazon Kindle Fires. She has a terrific website with a ton of great information. She lists useful applications, compares the different models, and alerts you to sales. Yes, I'm signed up for email alerts when she has new information.

A few days ago I got an email. Wow! Yes, old Rachel has gone over to the other side, in a big way. Yes, Rachel-Kindle-Fire lady is now, yes, RACHEL THE ENERGY-HEALER LADY! 

And, how did Rachel go down the rabbit hole of delusion and ignorance? Simple!

As I best understand it she was having problems and rushed to her chiropractor for help. For those of you who don't know, if you want an overload of bullshit and magical thinking, hey, visit a chiropractor. The chiropractor she visited also just happened to be peddling his own version of energy healing bullshit. 

This link will take you to his site.

So, after spending about $2000 Rachel is now in the healing business. Yep, she proudly talks about her two certificates. 

And, what types of problems can Rachel help you with?

The following is from her site.

Symptoms and Issues Helped by Emotion and Body Code (BTW, Emotion and Body Code is what Rachel is trained in and has those darn certificates to prove it.) 

 Abdominal Pain  Aching Muscles  Acid Reflux  ADD/ADHD  Addiction  Allergies  Anxiety  Arthritis  Asthma  Back Pain  Bedwetting  Carpal Tunnel  Chest Pain  Constipation  Cramps  Depression  Diabetes  Digestive Issues  Eating Disorders  Eye Pain  Failure  Fatigue  Fear  Headaches  Heartburn  Hip Pain  Hormonal Problems  Impotency  Inability to Find Love  Infertility  Insomnia  Irritable Bowel (IBS)  Isolation  Joint Pain  Knee Pain  Learning Disabilities  Low Back Pain  Migraines  Money Struggles  Morning Sickness  Neck Pain  Night Terrors  Panic Attacks  Phobias  PTSD  Sciatica  Self-Sabotage  Sinus Problems  Skin Problems  Stress  Suicidal Tendencies  Thyroid Issues  Vertigo ...and many more

OK, think along with me for a couple of minutes. Someone who's gullible and naive at a minimum, and plops down a couple of grand and they are a healer who can take care of the above-listed illnesses, sicknesses, and maladies?

Dang, the next time I visit my GP I'm going to tell her she sure pissed away her time and money by going to medical school. Ole Rachel can take care of just about anything...actually, just looked at the list again...guess I could say Rachel is the Swiss Army Knife of healers.

Looking at Rachel's list again the only medical problems not mentioned are heart attacks, cancers, and strokes. Hmm. Surely, the chiropractor is working on a third certificate to cover those problems. Wait, there's nothing listed on Rachel's What-she-can-help-with about the lottery!!!!! Dang.

Who are these people who claim they can heal you? Are they outright scammers and thieves or are they believers who are clueless about what they are doing?

I would imagine that most are believers. Think about this for a minute, Rachel went to a chiropractor who is licensed by his state. He is legally allowed to call himself a doctor, hang out a shingle, and treat customers (or, rubes, if you will). So why wouldn't most of us believe these folks? The state is giving him a license for cryin' out loud.

OK, folks, I've spent too much time on this, and frankly, I've been doing this for over ten years. And, I do get tired of going over the same stuff time after time and sadly, I'm shouting in an empty room. So, I'm going to wrap this up.

This has been sitting around for too long so I'm just going to finish it and get it posted. I have a bunch of links and such...but, enough is enough.

OK, what would I do if all of a sudden I had the ability to heal people (remember all the stuff she can fix)? I would say I'd rush to hospitals and start the healing. But, dang, Rachel can heal from her living room without ever seeing you. So, I could start out by shooting those magic rays all over the place.

Hmm. Again, if I had these magic abilities I'd be banging on the doors of all insurance companies. Hey, I can heal folks without those pesky tests. You know, no MRIs and such. Insurance companies would love me.

Then I'd make a beeline to the American Medical Association, I'm sure they would be interested in my healing abilities. 

Yes, Another Trump Speaks Out!!!!

“Listen, this is it’s not fair to you, and we all get that, but this is so much bigger than any one person,” Lara Trump (Lara is Eric's wife) said when asked what she would say to the workers and families affected by the shutdown. “It is a little bit of pain, but it’s going to be for the future of our country and their children and their grandchildren, and generations after them will thank them for their sacrifice right now. I know it’s hard, I know people have families, they have bills to pay, they have mortgages, they have rents that are due. But, the president is trying every single day to come up with a good solution here, and the reality is, it’s been something that’s gone on for too long, and been unaddressed, our immigration problem. If we do nothing right now, it’s never gonna get fixed. This is our one opportunity. So, I would just tell them please stay strong. We appreciate everything that you’re sacrificing. We’re behind you and we’re going to do everything we can. The President is doing everything he can to resolve this quickly.”

Yes, the above is from someone who has never had to juggle a paycheck to decide what to pay and what to not pay and has never worried about paying a mortgage. The entire family...well, I'll let it go for now.

Here's the link to the article.

When Was the Last Time You Actually Wrote a Letter? Up for a Challenge?

When was the last time you sat at your desk or kitchen table with paper, pen, an envelope, and a stamp and wrote an actual letter? Depending upon your age, maybe you've never written a letter.

Yes, emails, texting and such, I'm sure have their place but it seems society has gotten to the point where we're pounding out often cryptic so-called messages with little thought to what we are actually writing and what we are trying to say.

This internet organization gets together in February. The challenge is to write one letter a day during the month. Yes, 28 letters in the month of February.

Who could you write?

Actually, think about it for a minute. How about the folks from your HS graduating class? In the service? How about folks who you were stationed with, think about occasionally but never contact? Dang, look at the directories on your phones.

Pissed off at one of our representatives? Send them a note. Last year I sent Trump a postcard. OK, I know he didn't see it but I did send it. Also, sent Tammy Duckworth a note thanking her for coining the name, Cadet Bone Spurs. There are a lot of folks out there to send notes and letters.

How about relatives? You know, Aunt Sue who would love to get a REAL letter. Uncle Henry? Your grandmother and grandfather?

How about writing to a stranger, here or abroad? This is a list of the folks who posted their addresses at INCOWRIMO. Take a look. Note: You can send a letter ANYWHERE for $1.15. Yes, all countries are the same price.

No, you surely don't have to commit to trying to write 28 letters in February. How about, sitting down and writing to a few relatives and a couple of pals. You might even enjoy it and I'm sure you'll get a positive response from anyone who receives one of your letters. 

Though you surely don't have to use a fountain pen, most office supply places have them for a few bucks. 

Remember Trump's Promise on the Campaign Trail??? I'm Going to Hire the BEST PEOPLE!!!!!

Well, folks, here are the BEST!!!!

Another Good One From Bill Maher about Bible Thumpers and Trump. It's a Couple of Years Old.

It's Chili Bowl Time Again!!! No, Ain't no Football, it's Racin'!!!!!!

This is an annual race. They start with about 350 racers and have elimination races from Monday, January 14, 2019, through Saturday. Yes, and there's one winner at the end. This is a video from last year. This race was won by Rico Abreu, who won the Chili Bowl two years in a row.

These cars weigh about 900 pounds and have 300/400 horsepower.

Ride along with the driver.

After Two Years of Trump....Dang, I'm Beginning to Miss Good Old Sarah!!!!!!!

Dang, Trump Sure Can Pick Them. Screwballs and Whack Jobs. And, Who is His Attorney? Yep, Giuliani!!!

Yes, Trump adds another whackjob to his menagerie. Rudy 9/11 Giuliani.

Pence Sucks the Big One, Too. In His Own Religious Whack-Job Way He's as Bad as Trump!

Watch this video to the end. John Oliver always gets a leg up on these fools.

This next video is about the bunny book!

Is There Anyone Left With a RED HAT Stapled to Their Skull???

This video is about a year old and things just keep getting worse. Those of you who voted for him, take a minute, look in the mirror and swear that you will never again vote for him!!!!  Trump against the world. And, he and we, are losing.

There is Really Something Wrong With This Guy! Please, Listen to These Tapes.

More on the wall and the shutdown....

Trump is Truly a DICK!!!!! When Dick is Defined they Need to Put "Trump" in with the Definition.

It's also an insulting thing to call someone you don't like, especially a boy or man. Much like ass, this word for a below-the-belt body part is very commonly used as an insult meaning pretty much "jerk" or "idiot."

It is also used as a pejorative term for individuals who are considered to be rude, abrasive, inconsiderate, or otherwise contemptible. In this context, it can be used interchangeably with jerk, and can also be used as a verb to describe rude or deceitful actions.

a mean, stupid, or annoying man

• The quotes below are from an article by Felcia Sonmez, Washington Post.

He also said he understood the predicament facing hundreds of thousands of federal workers who are not receiving their paychecks.

"I can relate, and I'm sure the people who are on the receiving end will make adjustments; they always do," Trump said. He claimed that "many of those people agree with what I'm doing" on refusing to reopen the government without obtaining funding for his long-promised border wall.

She also blasted Trump for suggesting that he may unilaterally move to build the border wall. "The impression you get from the president (is) that he would like to not only close government, build a wall, but also abolish Congress so the only voice that mattered was his own," Pelosi told Jane Pauley in the interview, which aired on CBS News' "Sunday Morning."

Watch the video. Remember all of his promises. We're all going to have the best health care and it's going to be cheap. Yes, he promised to do that his first day in office.

Trump can't relate to much of anything. He's a guy who was born on home plate and keeps bragging that he hit a home run!!!!!!

Books and Boobs!!! Thanks to Lawrence Block, Sort of....

OK, folks. So how did I find The Outdoor Co-ed Topless Pulp Fiction Appreciation Society?       

See the book the young lady is reading? The young lady to

the right? Well, that's a book by Lawrence Block a favorite author of mine. Anyway, the book had just been released and I did a search for reviews and happened across these ladies. And, no, I didn't buy the book. It seems that in New York City ladies are allowed to roam around topless. Hmm, not sure about New York state.

Yes, men were once arrested for showing their nipples. 

How to Stop the Government Shut Down? Simple!

Yes, it's simple. At the top of the shutdown is Trump's Secret Service protection. Next, all White House food service is stopped (and, Trump can't call out for KFC). And, of course, all travel. And, folks, that would do it. Won't waste more time on this.

I Wanted to Clear my Mental Palate, if You Will, of TRUMP!!!!

My recent posts have been about Trump. Dang, I need some kind of exorcism to cleanse myself. Yes, I wanted to find a pleasant, humorous, and delightful movie to distract and amuse myself. And, Support Your Local Sheriff was perfect. You folks need to watch this. Presently, it's free with Amazon Prime.

Our President Seems to be a Malignant Cancerous Tumor. What Should We Do?

I ask that we all read this article, The People vs Donald J. Trump by David Leonhardt. Yes, especially those of you who have your red MAGA hats stapled to your skulls. Should we impeach him? Wow, I surely am not savvy enough to have a well-thought-out position. That said, anyone with an IQ above room temperature knows he is completely unfit to be our president. He is doing great harm to our nation in so many ways. He is a crook and a grifter with no sense of ethics or morals and surely does not govern with the people's best interests in mind. It would seem he is to the point where no decent, knowledgeable, and self-respecting person would ever work for him. Oh, well. Yes, I'm just whislin' Dixie. It is a disgrace to have him and his wretched family in our White House.

Is there a downside to replacing Trump? Hmm, well, Pence is a religious whackjob, period. He'd most likely try to replace the Constitution with the darn so-called Holy Bible.

EDIT: Speaking of Trump's wall. I often disagree with Bill Maher but his take on Trump's wall I do agree.

Introducing Dara O'Briain. I'm Sure You Folks Will Enjoy Him.

BTW,  he attended University College, Dublin (UCD), where he studied mathematics, chemistry, and theoretical physics. This video is also for our New Age folks.

Impeach the Motherfucker and How About Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez....

Politics are getting more interesting by the day.      
Her first day in congress!!!!


         

And, how about Alexandria_Ocasio-Cortez!!!!!

She's a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.

And, yes, I wrote-in Bernie.

Introducing the Axis of Awesome....

I posted an Axis of Awesome video a few posts ago. And, included it here along with a few others. Some folks may say these guys are crude and vulgar...and, hey, what can I say? But, I think most will agree that they are talented and creative, at a minimum. Hope you enjoy these.

Ahh, a Special New Year's Gift for all of You New Age Whack Jobs. Yes, Just for You.

Have I already posted this? That said, a fresh look never hurts. Enjoy!!!!!

Well, there was another for our New Age pals, but I couldn't find it. The following is a sampling of Mitchell and Webb. Hope you enjoy them.

EDIT: Found the other one for our New Age pals.

A Clear and Present Danger to the Security of the United States....

Hi, have you folks seen the movie? Presently, it's free with Amazon Prime. I like the way it starts...there's a Coast Guard cutter crashing through the waves. Anyway, the President (in the movie) declares the drug cartels are a clear and present danger to the security of the United States. Ahh, where am I going?

OK. There's a special unit that no one has ever heard of. Yes, the unit would be ranked above even SEAL Team Six. And, I surely can't tell you how I know about them. Anyway, when there is a clear and present danger to the security of the United States, the unit acts...and, they act with no oversight.

Their latest mission required them to breach the White House. They exchanged Trump's phone with a Fisher-Price kids' phone. And, we've heard from Trump many times

bragging about his BIG RED button. Yep, the one that launches the missiles. They rewired the button. Now, if Trump hits the button 25 buckets of KFC chicken are rushed to him.

Rest well, citizens. Things are sort of OK! At least for the moment.

And, the unit is standing by and continue to monitor the situation (Well, monitor Trump).

EDIT: Forgot to mention. They found over 6,000 red hats that they removed and burned.

Do You Have Something to Say and No Place to Say It?

Are there things that tick you off?

Things that make no sense to you?

Things that you think should be changed?

Things you disagree with?

Well, you get the idea. Blogs are free and pretty darn easy to get going. Do a search and pick a blog and (maybe) get your voice heard. At least you can hassle your friends and relatives to take a look.

Or, be a guest contributor here on my blog. Just send me a note (george238c@juno.com) and tell me what you want to say or what you want to bitch about.

Working on my Resolutions for 2019. DANG, 2019!!! Amazing, and I'm Quite a Few Years Past My Use-By Date!!!!

OK, I'll start with a re-post from last year. Please watch the video.

Hi Folks,

Yes, I'm still working on my New Year's Resolutions. Actually, I basically have them finished I just don't feel like writing them out. Plan to do that soon. Honest!

That said, this video is only a few minutes long. Please watch it.

Thanks.

Yes, resolutions from an atheist. He talks about reason and critical thinking. Whether you are a believer or not, please watch this as it applies to far more than religion.
