Ramblings of the Village Idiot

Ah, October. I love the Fall. And here comes Halloween! I'm sure most don't realize it's our most sacred day and the start of our year. Yep, it's the day we remember those who have passed on. A solemn day of reflection and giving thanks.

So what do we think of what Halloween has become? Trick or treat? Costumes? Commercialization? Well, I couldn't care less, mostly because the kids get such a kick out of it. Anything for the kids, right? And yeah, I don a costume and go trick or treating; I was Braveheart last year and looked great in my kilt.

I've found that Muslims, Christians and Jews have no sense of humor with regard to their religions. The shots are always at their group, not their beliefs so what's the harm? I guess this is an insult to Islam and I deserve to die, get my butt kicked by Christians and taken to court by Jews for racism but I really don't care.

Time for folks in the big 3 to grow up, get a thicker skin, and learn to smile. If God feels insulted, God will get his/her 2 cents in eventually. All y'all should get a grip. Blessed be and happy Halloween.

A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St.
Peter at
the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him..

He asked, 'What are all those clocks?'

St. Peter answered, 'Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on
Earth has a
Lie-Clock.

Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move.'

'Oh,' said the man, 'whose clock is that?'

'That's Mother Teresa's. The hands have never
moved, indicating that she
never told a lie.'

'Incredible,' said the man'. And whose clock is
that one?'

St. Peter responded, 'That's Abraham Lincoln's
clock. The hands have
moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two
lies in his
entire life.'


'Where's President Bush's clock?' asked the
man.

'Bush's clock is in Jesus' office.

He's using it as a ceiling fan.

Mr President, we think we may have a solution.
For what?
The economic crisis Mr President.
OK, What's your solution?
We do kinda like FDR did and bail out the country on trust.
Why do we have to do anything at all?
That's what Hoover did and we lapsed into the great depression.
Hoover? The vacuum cleaner guy?
No Mr. President, President Hoover.
Oh, yeah. Him. ...... Uh, why are we here?
The economy Mr. President. The bail out.
We're sinking? Are we on a boat?
No Mr. President, the economic bail out.
OK, What do I do?
Nothing Mr. President. You just say what we tell you to say.
Say to who?
The American people Mr. President.
Oh them. What do I say, and about what?
The economic bail out Mr. President.
Oh, yeah. I'll have to do something about that.
No Mr. President, leave it to the experts, not like the war.
War? What war?
Iraq Mr President.
Oh yeah. And we're here for.....??
Practice with the teleprompter Mr. President and everything will
be fine. You will get all the credit.

OK, test time. Go to

and let me know how you did. Sure surprised the hell out of me.

OK folks, I'm not kidding here and I don't know the answer. This is for adherants of all religions. What about the folks on other planets? Did Jesus, Jehova, Muhammad, Shiva, Buddha, etc make their presence known to them too? I can fine no references to this anywhere.

Here's an alternative view for you folks that quote the Bible. Take the time to watch the entire video. Although a bit on the fringe, he does make sense if you THINK about it.
