Wed, 26 July 2006  This show is my emotional rant about the crisis in the Middle-East. The show is a little longer than usual, but that is because i just had much to say. Let me make it perfectly clear to everyone who reads this that I WANT to be FOR Israel, but I can't in good conscience. There are jews, non-jews, Israeli's, and others who feel that Israel has taken an extrordinarily crazy response to Hamas and Hezbollah. I'm not a Middle-East expert, and I know you can get the news from many other sources, so I don't want to parrot what you already know. But I do know that Hezbollah has kidnapped Israeli soldiers in the past. And a few times before in the past, Israel was able to trade POW's with Hezbollah, usually with a german mediator. So, it begs the question ... why did Israel decide to go bat-shit now and decide to punish the entire nation for the acts of a few. This is by no means a limited response, and I am sure Hezbollah is going WTF?!?!?!?!?!? yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, Hezbollah is considered a terrorist organization, and many people see them as being funded by Iran and Syria. Is Iran next? Did the U.S. government prod Israel into attacking Lebanon (and then maybe Syria next) on our behalf. Why isn't the U.S. telling Israel (our bitch-puppet) to back the fuck off. When Israel pisses off the Arab world, when Israel treat the Gaza abd West Bank and such ... the Arab world sees Israel as being the EXACT SAME as the U.S. ... to them we are the same entity. So, anything Israel does reflects badly on the U.S. So, is Iran next since they fund Hezbollah also? Iran is 3x the size of Iraq, and we can't even get our shit together in Iraq. Also, Iran has made oil deals with China and Russia ... can you just imagine how these countries would feel if the U.S. gained control of Iranian oil (however, unlikely that would be). Can you imagine China calling in our debt? That would cripple our economy and we'd all be screwed ... more so than we already are. So ... when did WW III start? Was it the 9/11 Attack? Was it when the U.S. invaded Iraq, or did it just start with Israel? Well, I have a number of links regarding World War III: I did some research on what is considered a "World War" and why some assholes think we are already WW 4 or WW 5. Well, it's BULLSHIT ... World War III has already come close to starting many, many times in the past, and maybe it has finally started?
If it has started, it's only a matter of time before Nuclear Bombs start falling and millions, perhaps billions of people will die. There are at least two groups who are ecstatic that is this happening: I mean can you imagine ... these "christians" celebrate the loss of life because they think the Rapture is imminent and they will all go to Heaven, and the rest of us can all go to Hell ... quite literally! If you are Christian, then he last thing you should want is the end of the world, you should hope the Rapture is staved off for as long as possible, but the only thing these people can do be is wallow at orgasmic joy at the end of the world because they think they won't have to deal with it. Sadly, those who would look forward to the end of the world ... in my opinion ... are the least worthy of Salvation!!!!! Personally, in my opinion, these are sick fucks!!!!!! Sorry, for this long post ... but I am against war! At this time I am against Israel, AND Hamas, AND Hezbollah! There has got to be peace and diplomatic solutions with these people. If Hamas and Hezbollah CANNOT and WILL NOT accept the existence of Israel, then surely World War III will start someday! I just hope it hasn't happened yet. I DO NOT want the end of the world! I DO NOT want the Rapture! I DO NOT want war, or bloodshed! Until the crisis in the Middle-East stops, I'm going to be a nervous wreck! Comments[1] |
Fri, 21 July 2006  So, it was an ordinary week. Cleaning my house, brushing the dogs, an working on my freelance stuff ... all the while I had Skype on. The next thing I know Madge Weinstein calls me on Skype from Yeast Radio, and there I was in a conference call with Madge and Cheryl Mercowski. One thing led to another, and I informed the ladies that I indeed have an Aneros prostrate stimulator. So, Madge asked me if I could so a show talking about my Aneros Prostrate Stimulator, my experiences with it, and reviewing it. So, consider this a disclaimer. If you don't want to hear about my sex toy and my using it, then move another my next podcast (which I haven't recorded yet). If you are interested, sit back and enjoy! I didn't cover any of the news, and I was going to talk about a much more serious subject (TBA), but I guess that will have to wait until my next podcast. This podcast is also a little shorter than usual, but that's ok ... the next one might be a little longer than usual.

Fri, 14 July 2006 In four more months, lots of things can change. Hell, many things can change in 4 seconds, but in four more months if any of us are still here lots of things will hapen: The same courts in Massachusetts that allow gay marriage also dealt us a set-back in allowing the petitions to go through. That means the same-sex marriage ban CAN be voted on for the legislature. The ball is now in their court, and they can vote to put the issue on the ballot in 2008, or not. It would need to with 2 votes from our 2 constitutional conventions,or at least I think that's the way I read it. So, this past Wedneday, they had a chance to vote on it ... but it never came up. So, on both sides of the issue, there are those who are both hapy this was put off for four months, and there are some people who are furious this has happened. Some people on both sides of the issue called it political cowardice. I've been chatting with my very moderate conservative friends and discussing issues honestly. I am talking about my friend Bob from Bridgewater, MA. Catholic Boy, member of Knights of Columbus, and his wife volunteers for Catholic Charities. Our last discussion ... why should a public charity, that gets private funding, and no public money ... has to let gay couples adopt kids? I think they should! Other than that, there is always the mundane things going on in my life, like cleaning my place and making room for the new roomie coming. I got most some more to do, but nothing I can't handle. Oh yeah, I am listening to two new podcasts: In the news this podcast:

Mon, 10 July 2006 Wow, this weekend was super-busy, but also super-productive. I got a ton done. I cleaned my house, dusted, laundry, dishes, etc. all the mundane things. I also got some extra things done, like an oil change in my truck and getting rid of old trash to the dump. As you know I have a roomie moving into my house soon. So, I have to clean out that room so he will have room. As I was cleaning out things I ran across things I hadn't seen in years. What a trip down memory lane. I also found things that belonged to my "ex" and he will get those items back. As I throw things out, and as old meories come back ... I get an awful ache in my stomach. I don't throw too much away that has GREAT sentimental value to me. In some old and new news:

Fri, 7 July 2006 Hey folks, I hope every had a great holiday over the Fourth of July. I know I had a great time seeing "Superman Returns" and having one Helluva BBQ meal. I also managed to get some sun and rays before the thunderstorms and clouds came in. So, now I am back to work, and a little annoyed I lost my bid on that Marantz PMD 660. So, I'm just gonna get it brand new from BSW Audio. In the meantime, I got some more freelance work to do also, then I'll be done paying off this laptop. BTW, I am still using this PC laptop and Audacity to record my podcasts. So, recently there has been some friction between me and Captain Cox. After I posted my show for July 4th, he left me some comments which you can find here. So, you can see myself and ZillaFag had words with Captain Cox who does the Cox Cast podcast. I responded to Cox by sending a pretty lengthy message to him which he posted to his site here, and you can see his immediate response. Then later he posted a much longer response to my long message, and that can be found here. Lastly, I left him one rather long message, and I think that'll be the end of it. Captain Cox is a gay, conservative, republican fom Dallas, Texas. I am a Massachusetts liberal-democrat ... so we are as opposite as opposites can be. I doubt we have very much in common ... apart that were both gay. I had some news items to cover, but I think those can wait until my next podcast which should be this weekend in a couple of days.

Mon, 3 July 2006 Happy Birthday to the United States of America, today you're officially 230 years old. As far as nations are concerned, the USA is just out of diapers, and nowhere near as mature as many other nations of the world. And yet, we're like a 2 year old wielding a gun ... the gun being a metaphor for nuclear weapons. In this podcast, I talk about what's been going on with me and the mundane details of my life ... oooooh, how exciting ... NOT! But, I did see my "ex" and found out he is dating someone else. Don't have any of the details really, and don't want to know. I guess have mixed emotions about him seeing someone else. I guess I am kinda hurt by that, but also, I know any relationship he has probably isn't gonna work ... not unless he's matured in the last 3 years, which he hasn't. Speaking of the "ex" ... this is the third year anniversary of our breakup. Well, I had a chance to think my "ex" and relationships in general ... I think I kinda know where I stand on the issue. As much as a relationship could happen to me ... being in a relationship terrifies me because I don't want to get hurt again the way I did in my last relationship. After 3 years of "divorce" the happy memories are still with me, and I can't seem to quit him ... if you catch my Brokeback reference. Maybe it's a catch-22, I can't get over him until I meet someone else, and I can't meet someone else until I get over him. Time will tell. So, anyway, 4th of July has a different meaning to me, and I talk a little about America's history and how our world has changed. I think it's ironic that we celebrate the 4th of July and the start of our Bill of Rights and Constitution ... and for the past few years the Executive branch of the goverment has been taking our rights away, and the Congress has let it happen! Quite frankly, I am terrified ... not by the terrorists, but by a goverment slowly turning into a fascist dictatorship. If God hears my prayers, then we will have a majority democratic Congress. Happy Fourth of July! Have a great time and stay safe! Comments[0] |
