Backfire

"...for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?" -
1 Samuel 17:26

I once went up to a policeman and said “ello, ello, ello, what’s all this then?”
 - he then arrested me, for 'impersonating a police officer'.

Winter Is Coming

Mirror Mirror...

Following the announcement by rap star Kayne West, to run as a candidate in the 2020 presidential elections, he has started to outline his policies.

1/ Add his face to Mount Rushmore
2/ Replace the National Anthem with one of his rambling self-indulgent tracks
3/ Take what gold is left (if anything) from the Federal Reserve and melt it down into a chain for Kim
4/ Insist all foreign leaders wear his range of c**p clothes
5/ Move his governmental office from the white house to his studio, or up his own pompous back-side (whatever is easier for him)
6/ Replace the CIA, with his own entourage

"Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity." - Ecclesiastes 1:2

There, There Diddums

Real Christian Martyrs usually don't have opportunity, (or an un-whole "need"), to lobby people about how brave they've been; and they certainly wouldn't invent "opposition" - that would be lying!

Cultural Exchange...

This Vessel

Not better than anyone else...
just chose to get aboard the lifeboat, when it came for me.

Hegelian Remix

When the environment is "kept" lukewarm, people tend to welcome extremes. Political Correctness and the consequent curbing of free-speech and then free-will, breeds this. However, in our passion, just make sure you're not being played like a fiddle!
We still need to be diligent to maintain checks and balances; we need tempered, passion! To respond, not react. "Do unto others, as you would have them do to you."
Someone needs to do the right thing, even if others do not... it might as well be you. But, of course, DO speak the truth, in love and boldness!
Here's an example in the UK news yesterday... Stabbed Teacher Forgives Boy
His testimony went National.

Romans 12:18
"If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men."

Plague

Reports of a child contracting Plague in California, were headlining today. LINK HERE. 
The child, recovering in hospital, apparently fell ill, after a trip to Yosemite National Park.

In a related story, Apple have commented that's "it's unlikely Yosemite was the source of any infection".

Windy Miller

70 Years from now, "The Council For The Protection Of Rural England" and "The Ramblers Association" will be protesting if Wind Farms are ever dismantled; (on the basis that they're an integral part of the landscape and hold historic significance for future generations.) In the mean time... "Naff Off, E.D.F. you're ruining our view as we trample across other people's land"

Gomer Wakes

So, did the deal go something like this?

"Yes, Turkey will support the war against ISIS, if you promise not to interfere with our forthcoming treatment of the Kurds"

Remember when George H.W. Bush Snr. abandoned the Kurds, once before... will the great USA really, in all conscience, allow it again?

How Many Millions Dead?

Barack Obama's first ever action as USA President, was to remove the "Mexico City Policy".

Rivers of Blood on your hands Mr President.
Please stop pretending to be a Christian... it insults The Lord!

Deep Questions Of Life

Most people, put their clothes to "Air" in the Airing Cupboard.
Why do they always close the door then?

Stink

Someone offered me some Mascarpone-flavoured ice cream...

I thought "Musky Pony? ...euurrrgh"

Euro-Ties

The Greek crisis, could be due to the members of their parliament not wearing ties. If only they would, all their wildest dreams will come true.

Remember Belzec

"Cheer up... it may never happen!"

"But I was just thinking about World War II"

"Cheer up... it may never happen ever again!"

"But that's why I need to keep thinking about World War II"

No Man's Land...

The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.



For He has founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the waters.

Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord?
Or who may stand in His holy place?

He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.

He shall receive blessing from the Lord,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.

This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face. Selah

Lift up your heads, O you gates!
And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty,
The Lord mighty in battle.

Lift up your heads, O you gates!
Lift up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
He is the King of glory. Selah

See... this is what happens when you park in Bath without a resident's permit from the council.

Free Taylor Swift

Apparently, Taylor Swift is outraged by another example of her "music" being heard for free.

"It's outrageous... it's pure theft from artists who work so hard, to create 'music' " she said.

This time, her indignation is aimed at the general public, who might, on occasion, sing her songs aloud to themselves.

"Where's my royalties" asked multi-millionaire Taylor today. "It's just greedy" she added whilst getting into a limo.

This Is Not The End

“For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.”

Hebrews 13:14

Being Responsible

The Government Health Department has issued a reminder to employers that, when employees go to the toilet, "to please remember to wash their hands afterward. This helps prevent the spread of germs."

In other news... the U.S. Pentagon, has apparently been sending live batches of Anthrax to various labs all over the planet. (Link) It is assumed that if there's an accidental break-out, they will quickly be 'washing their hands', too.

Roadmap Needed

Apparently, Iranian news agencies are reporting the injuries John Kerry received from falling off his bike, are actually due to being "caught up in a fire-fight with Isis gunmen"?

Things Go In Cycles

For so long, western news sources have, allegedly, fed the world truths, half truths and outright misinformation, which has fuelled all sorts of conspiracy theories.
*A spokesman for Nasim News Agency said "Well this gives western news agencies, a taste of their own medicine."


*Na, just made that up - Well, you know what they say ..."B.S. Baffles Brains"

...who's 'they'?

Government Health Warning

Like providing outside "smoking zones" with shelters, the government is proposing something similar for owners of selfie-sticks.

The "selfie-booths" will be sited well-away from major tourist locations and have background options;  including scenes of nearby tourist attractions, or a basic green screen (so visitors can photoshop a location in, when they get home).

Those proposing the scheme, say it will stop selfish people ruining the day of the vast majority of other selfish people.

Nuclear deal reached with Iran?
Then from Saudi Arabia came "Waaa, that's not fair... if they can have nukes, why can't we?"

*And so began the "Wahhabist Arms-Race", until one day, they all joined forces against the "infidels".
The West then only had four minutes, to try to renegotiate, but no one answered the phone.

Whoops-a-daisy.

Lambs To The Slaughter

News today, that Zayn Malik is leaving the boy band, One Direction. This "band", who write all their own songs and choreograph all their dance routines and have nearly brought World Peace, will now continue as a four member group.

Zyan with the band on tour in Starving Africa

Arch Kak-Mogul, Simon Cowell, is now busy lining up the next assembly of pied pipers to fleece the undiscerning public of their cash. Watch this space.

Flatchulant Elton John

Elton John is calling for a boycott on Fashion designers Dolce and Gabbana (because they disagree with aspects of his fantasy lifestyle.) Who's going to boycott them? those who attend his parties? Elton and his debauched "circle" of friends, are probably the only ones who can afford Dolce & Gabbana's stuff anyway!

Gentlemen and Gentlemen... the late Elton John

I say boycott Elton John's music!!!... basically, on the premise that it's crap!
Shut up Elton, you big bag of wind! - (and stop burning bibles!)

National Interests

Rumours that the current Russian Naval manoeuvres in the Arctic, are a precursor to a land grab for natural resources are unfounded.

A British Official Person from the Ministry for Appeasement, has said today, "Rather than an annexation of the region, we have been reassured by Moscow, that they are merely ensuring the protection of Russian penguins, within the local population."

Phew... that's all right then.
