Warning: the Constitution Might Offend Your Socialist Sensabilities

This made me sick. Way to start the morning.

The country that our Founding Fathers knew has already been completely destroyed, but some folks seem intent on destroying every last trace of what we were. I'd call it treason if treason was still a crime.

On the Nonexistence of Shoes

On the Nonexistence of Shoes (Or, Harry the Ashoeist)
by D. Araujo

Harry loved his purple shoe
And hated things that fly
So when his shoe grew wings and flew
He made a purple sky.
His other shoe was blue and true
But soon began to cry;
It missed its match: the purple shoe
Up in the purple sky.
“By Hermes feet!” Harry cursed
While painting earth with blues.
“I never thought I’d be the first
To prove there are no shoes.”

Christopher Hitchens' Christian Brother

Again, super busy. But here's a post anyway.

Two worthy articles to check out from the Peter Hitchens Blog:

"How I found God and peace with my atheist brother"

"More sex education means more teenage pregnancies. . . always"

SCURVY-CURING BACHELOR SALSA

Haven't been around, sorry. Life is crazy. In other news, I think I've finally perfected the art of homemade salsa. My super exact original recipe is as follows:

SCURVY-CURING BACHELOR SALSA

1 large can of petite diced tomatoes
3 ripe tomatoes
1 yellow bell pepper
1 red (or orange) bell pepper
2 small onions (red or white)
3 (at least) jalapenos
lots of cilantro
garlic powder (or you can use fresh garlic, but I'm lazy)
onion powder
salt
3 limes

Step 1: Dice your 3 tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, jalapenos, and cilantro.
Step 2: Drain most of the liquid in your out of your can of tomatoes.
Step 3: Throw it all into a large mixing bowl
Step 4: Squeeze your three limes into the salsa.
Step 5: sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, and salt (more salt than garlic or onion powder).
Step 6: Mix, cover, and refrigerate over-night.

Makes approximately several pounds of salsa. Serves approximately a few salsa-loving people.

Eat with everything.

(Salsa-making wouldn't be an art if I was exact. It's what separates the great salsa-artists from the mediocre salsa-artists. You just know, you know? When my Mexican genes speak, I listen. Que bueno que hablo espanol, no?)

If you try this recipe, leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

P.S. This salsa also cures Atheism.

The Dirty Dozen

Twelve policies that are undermining our country.

News to Know: Education crime, global bank taxes, and trashy teachers

Here are some news stories you should know about:

Political asylum granted to a German family fleeing persecution for their education choices.

A few days ago, somebody told me that if a world state appears, it'll be run by and preceded by an international bank. As everyone knows, for politicians, money is only ever a means to an end: power.

Teacher's unions are good, right? Yes! They allow teachers who impregnate their 16 year old students to continue collecting their salaries, even though they're banned from teaching. What a deal!--sleep with a 16 year old student and retire on your untouchable salary! With benefits like that, I'm surprised there aren't more teachers...

Political Agenda in the Classroom? POW! Shot down.

The fact that folks were outraged over THIS proves there's some hope left. Unsurprisingly, Perry High School is a public school, although this wasn't stated in the article.

-Peace

EDIT: Did I say something about hope? I take that back. Kids need to learn more history, not less. And not just American history but Western history. Make those kids read Livy for Pete's sake. What's wrong with the world? Our education.

Ain't no education like a classical education, foo'.
