My hope and intention as I begin this blog is to give a thoughtful, considered response to world events, deep discussions and personal circumstances. I hope it will be encouraging, challenging, informative and edifying to those that read it. I by no means intend to be a self-proclaimed expert, but I do want to share my thoughts in the global marketplace of ideas.

Maybe She's A Gemini
It seems that Mrs. Clinton can't quite figure out how to relate to Mr. Obama. One day she says that she is honored to be on the same stage with him, and the next she denounces everything he says. One day she wants to be on the same ticket with him, and the next her campaign says that he is "unelectable." Um, why would you want to run on the same ticket with him if you are convinced he can't win?

Gemini?
If I acknowledged astrology as something remotely worthy of consideration, I might be offended by that comment. But seeing as how I have renounced everything that Satan has to offer, including astrology and fortune telling, I can easily ignore the comment and move on with my day. :)
While years of attending Christian school has made me utterly terrified of even looking at the astrology section of the newspaper AND while I weekly resist the temptation to have my palm read by the crazy fortune teller down on Central Ave . . .
I will say that I think Gemini's are insane. They are number 2 (after smokers) on my list of men I refuse to date. Every Gemini I have ever gone out with (and I do seem to be drawn to them, I've dated at least 4 of them) have been freakin' crazy. I'm talking out of his mind, change his mind on a dime, two totally different folks. One of the two folks, I really, really liked, but the other one would always make me "break beer bottles" angry.
Suffice it to say, I also hate Hil-Dawg so she must be a Gemini. We should check her DOB . . . it's actually October 26, 1947. (She's a Scorpio. I've dumped a bunch of those too.)
Yes, well, as someone born within this particular zodiacal interval, I can assure you that we're not all crazy. I think what's more important to keep in mind is that we humans have choices over our words and actions, and those choices have nothing to do with our date of birth, the phases of the moon, or what a newspaper tells of our inevitable fates. We have free will, remember?
...we have a winner. I could go on about the various zodiacs I am (I know my Chinese, Aztec, Egyptian and Greek zodiac) but what is the point when my life is ultimately in God's hands, and in my choice to allow it to be there?
For fun: Dragon, The Wind, Anubis, Cancer. But none of them make me who I am. My faith, my belief, my walk, my love and my God make me who I am.
To stay on topic: I have a feeling that the '08 election is seriously going to suck. Having learned about Obama's religious roots (that is, far more soft than I care for), I am less than enthused about any of the candidates who are slated to be on the '08 ticket.
Um, this post really had nothing to do with astrological signs. It was just a misguided attempt at a clever tagline.
We know, Steve. I think we're all so sick of the candidates, we'll take off in any direction if we are given an opportunity. But we still appreciate your insights into these preposterous quotes. Thank you.
Hey, I actually like Obama. He's way better than Hil-Dawg and I'm hoping he'll still pull Edwards into the race!
