There’s always a tweet.
Donald Trump is a terrible person. One only has to look at his twitter timeline to see proof. His fans like him like that, but there is no denying it: Donald Trump is a deplorable.
“Seriously, Dave. If that eulogy went on a minute longer it would have been yours.”
It’s raining, and it’s cold. The boys of summer should be shutting down.
But of course I am talking the Orioles. They’ve been shut down since the start of the season. Did they even show up?
The rain kept me from catching the last game of my season ticket package. I wanted to see Adam Jones patrol the outfield one last time. Sadly, I don’t want to sit in the rain, so I cancelled before I even went. Thank the lord that the rain keeps going and the game was postponed.
This was the worst team ever. They were hard to watch. Then I didn’t want to watch. The entire city of Baltimore too didn’t want to watch. We stayed away in droves. They kept losing in droves. They also drove everyone insane with the losses.
I witnessed several seasons of bad Orioles baseball before Buck Showalter showed up. But they were still easy to watch and root for. This version you can’t want to watch. It’s awful. Now I know the difference between .333 and .400. It’s really painful.
I wish for a better season next year. Perhaps my money won’t be wasted.
“And this doesn’t look like a megaphone, but watch this — Red Sox suck!”

Look at the birds in the sky: They do not sow, or reap, or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

This kind of scares me: ruthless striving for efficiency causes complexity. Here's anecdotal evidence from the banking industry. The pursuit of efficiency doesn't make things simple at all. I wonder if this is a type of paradox that has yet to be named. I wonder if my bank works the same way. Most likely, it does, and I am kind of scared.
It's the end of the world!
Well is it over? The world, I mean. Has the apocalypse come? And if it has when’s it leaving. Soon I hope so that we can all get back to Christmas.
The world doesn’t end. It will keep going and going long after we humans are gone. Then it will burn up in the expansion of the solar shell, burnt up in a fireball for all we care. Yes, I did contradict myself. Who cares? It will be over anyway.
Quote of the Day [12.12.12]
Thus saith the Lord God to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys; Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.
Ezekiel 6 verse 3

You’ve only got a few days until the end of the world. What will you do?
How convenient then that they have the same digits as today!
It’s the end of the world!
Test Post From the Future
I’m just going to try to have this posted tomorrow (11.17) at 8:50 PM! Ignore me.
Momma you got to move!
Not to make too light of the serious situation that is Post-Tropical Cyclone Sandy, but listening to this awesome cover of Led Zeppelin’s “When the Levee Breaks” by the girl group zepperalla rocks. Who knew that Robert Plant would sound decent as a girl? Of course his banshee screams sound like they do come from a girl.
The song’s also a good reminder to be careful out there. What may look to be calm could be dangerous with downed trees, downed wires, and high water. Be smart. Be safe.
