Door to door religious sales people

Door to door religious sales people

Why do people wander through neighborhoods trying to recruit for their religion? Just had two more a few minutes ago attempting to “save” me. Go away. Didn’t Jesus say that the most important was the Golden Rule? That’s how I try to live and I don’t need to donate money to some corporation (yes, churches are a business) to defend their workers (priests) from lawsuits. Read the bible, do your thing, but leave me alone. When people complain about LBGTQ…

2017 December Trip to Vietnam

2017 December Trip to Vietnam

I saw a great deal on flights to Vietnam in October of 2017 for around $500 RT so I knew I had to finally head to Asia and not always back to Europe…get a little out of my comfort zone. When I posted the good fare on social media I had a good friend ask if she could come along and of course I said yes. We flew to Los Angeles the day before and explored the Venice Beach /…

Good ride along the Apache Trail

Good ride along the Apache Trail

This site can’t always be me bitching about Trump and his shitty people…yes, if you still support Trump you likely a racist or very ignorant person.  If you think you are a religious person, then it makes it worse…how can you support a guy (and his administration) who are so hurtful to those who your “lord and savior” says to love the most.  Just my opinion, and it definitely could be wrong, but have you read his tweets, seen him…

Where from here?

Where from here?

Trump isn’t going away anytime soon, Pence may seem more mentally stable, but his ideal America is similar to the “Handmaids Tale” series on Hulu. Even if those to go away, we’ve got the rest of the Republican “leadership” trying to take our country into the toilet. What can be done? I can’t accept that this is where the majority of Americans want to be.  Republicans say they are tired of Trump, but won’t do a damn thing about him….

Trump’s moral compass?

Trump’s moral compass?

This how the president thinks. Is this how you think? If you still support Trump and consider yourself a religious person, please think about the message of peace taught by religious (mainstream) founders and look at what this president is doing. How does this match up? How can his actions be justified by any peace loving and forgiving deity? 

Trump Tweets

Trump Tweets

If you are a fan of Trump, you really need to read his Tweets. If you are still a fan of Trump after reading them, please do some soul searching on how you think a president should be and how the president should act.  How are his tweets helping anyone? Inflaming tensions with another unstable leader as well as within our own country in so many ways.  A president should not act this way. A president is supposed to be…

Assistance to veterans

Hey veteran friends, if you fit the criteria you can get help with special clothing. I received this email from the VA yesterday (7/13/2017).   Dear VA Beneficiary,   Did you know that you may be eligible for an annual clothing allowance if you use a prosthetic or orthopedic appliance and/or medication for a service connected skin condition that causes permanent damage to your outer garments?   If you’re eligible, and you haven’t yet applied for this year, you need…
