Lots About A Little…or Something Like That

This ‘dryness’ in blogging continues a bit. There have been many people matters at church, meetings and then there’s just all the regular ministry matters. It doesn’t leave time for much ‘outside’ thinking and I can’t write about the people matters. So here are some rapid fire thoughts, a few links from others I think are definitely worth your time and reading.

I heard about a woman I know (she does NOT go to Cornerstone; not sure if she goes to any church…which says a lot about where I’m going with this) who, at an advanced age (let’s just say, over 60) who had her eyes tattooed with permanent eyeliner so she no longer has to apply it each day. What? They really do that? I almost never get surprised or caught off guard by anything people do any more, but tattooed eyeliner? You’ve got to be kidding me. She spoke of how badly it hurt…TOO BAD! It’s your eye lids. It’s supposed to hurt, warning you of objects that could poke your eyes out…like sharp needles filled with ink! ‘It hurt so bad I almost quit, but I only had one eye done.’ Yeah, well that would have made you look clownish. Song lyrics came to mind:

‘Years I spent in vanity and pride; now I’ve had it permanently applied!’

Map of the Seven Deadly Sins in America

I don’t know how they go about doing the research on things like this, but it’s a little fascinating to me. The one other question I have is this: why only seven?

Netflix and Binge Viewing

We used to subscribe to Netflix several years ago and we saw this happening with our two youngest children. So, we simply canceled the account. No more problems. What about you? Do you subscribe? Do you watch a whole season as quickly as you can?

Judges Deny Chimpanzees ‘Personhood’

This is a bit old (from last month), but it’s been sitting in my ‘Blog Observations’ folder on Evernote since then, so I wanted to clear it out. Fascinating that the group filing suit to get them personhood had done their background research on the judges, but still failed to convince some very animal-friendly judicial benches. It won’t be long though, you know, until this gains momentum and goes through. After that, they’ll be groups wanting to file for marital rights for them as well. I mean, why not. We’re all just a bag of chemicals living and walking around this planet for a few short years. Why not let them do what they want? Man’s never been given dominion over them…oh wait.
