If Oil Is Evil . . .

''It's funny how much Big Oil is vilified in the media when you look at where the industry actually ranks in terms of net profit margin. As of this writing, Evil Big Oil comes in ranked in 56th place with a 9.5-percent marin. That put them behind such industies as Evil Mutual Funds, Evil Publishers, Evil Long-Distance Carriers, Evil Software, Evil Shipping, Evil Silver, Evil Copper, Evil Gold, Evil Drug Manufacturers, Evil Regional Banks, Evil Railroads, Evil Medical Supplies, Evil General Entertainment, Evil Footwear, Evil Resorts and Casinos, and Evil Education Services.''

The Original

The original "First They Came for the Jews"

"First they came for the Jews,
I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the Communists
I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Communist

then they came for the trade unionist
and I didn't speak out becuase I wasn't a trade unionist.


Then they came for me and
there was no one left to speak out for me."
-Pastor Niemoller

First they came...

"First they came for the cigarettes,
and I didn't speak up because I'm not a smoker.

Then they came for the trans fats
and I didn't speak up because I'm a healthy eater.

Then they came for the foie gras
and I didn't speak up because it's French.

Then they came for the ice cream
and I didn't speak up because I'm lactose intolerant.

And then they came for the rib eye.
By that time there was no one left to speak up
because all of the restaurants were already out of business."
-Glenn Beck

Sunset

Sunset at Causey Farms

Time for the sun to go down,

Over the hills of this small town.

Ussering in the still quiet of night,

Waiting, waiting for the morning light.

A Mother Knows

"Jason Zacchi of Dearborn Heights. Mich., made an odd choice of restaurants to rob. Police say the 27-year-old Zacchi walked up to the drivethru window at a local Wendy's, brandished a sawed-off shotgun, and demanded money. Hearing the commotion,the restaurants' manager approached the drive-thru register and immediately recognized the robber despite a blue bandanna covering his face.That's because the manager was Zacchi's mother. Police arrested Zacchi and his getaway car-driving girlfriend and charged him with armed robbery after his mother turned him in." World Mag. Jan. 2010

That guy is an idot! Now, I don't blame his mother for turning him in, I would want to get rid of him too!
