For those of you who know me, this might not be a surprise. For those of you who don’t know me, I am a big fan of stand-up comedy. This is a video that I came across, and thought was also pretty funny.

I was reading some news online, and came across a post about a dude selling Tiger Woods’ half-eaten apple core on ebay for $36,000:

“I was at the US Open this Friday, following Tiger Woods down the 12th Fairway, after his tee shot, he was eating an apple, 30 yards from his ball he discarded his apple core in the rough, I asked a photothe to kick it over my way, and he did, I never touched the core, Scooped it up in a empty beer cup, as not to disrupt the DNA, Ive got lots of witness’…all moneys go to my daughters college fund.”

I have been thinking about this a lot recently. And since I mentioned in a comment on another blog that I would write a blog about the Patriot Act, here it goes.  I think that the United States Patriot Act is one of the most tyrannical pieces of legislation ever passed in the history of the United States. Shortly after 9/11, a panicked Congress decided to pass the Patriot Act, and then reauthorized it in 2006.  This piece of legislation gives the FBI power to secretly invade the American people’s privacy - which actually violates the 4th Amendment of the Constitution.

I found this video, and I think it is pretty dam funny….

Yesterday, I was watching a Television show where they were talking with some of the people involved in polygamy.  Experts say that there are anywhere from 30,000 to 50,000 people living in some type of plural marriage family. Oprah did an interview with one of the families.  She was talking to each of the 3 wives, and none of them acted like it was any kind of big deal.  Between the 3 of them there are 23 people in the house, including the 3 wives, the 1 husband, and all the children.  I know at one time, that this was something the we believed in, only because it was a commandment given to the brethren at that time. 

But the things they were being said on the Oprah Winfrey Show, frustrated me so bad, that I had to blog about it and get some frustrations out.

I don’t really know where to get started, but once I do, Mike and Denise will both have comments to make about what I say.

In case I have not mentioned before, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  Today, in Sunday School, we had a lesson about righteous governments.  The lesson started off pretty well, and had some pretty good discussions.  However, as it progressed, some people said some things that made me think a little bit deeper. Somehow, it got to where someone mentioned that “as members of the church, we are in fact a minority”.  I thought about this, and thought that this is in fact very true.  Since I have been a member of the church my whole life, I have never given that much thought.

Then someone mentioned that there are two most hated groups in America.  He said the #1 hated group are Homosexuals.  And the #2 hated group is Mormons.  I don’t know if that is necessarily 100% true, but I think that we are up there.  This leads me to my next point that no matter what the issue is, whether good or bad, membership of the LDS Church or Mormon Church is brought up.  When Mitt Romney was still in the Presidential race, his religion was brought up all the time.  I don’t know what his beliefs or his church had to do with him running for office. Usually, that is not brought up with other candidates.  During other Presidential races, I have rarely heard anyone make a big deal about what religion they were.  However, just because Mitt Romney is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, then people don’t want him as President.

I was sorting through some old emails, and I came across this little funny joke.  If you are ever having a bad day, and want to get a good laugh, just follow these instructions

How to start the day with a positive outlook!

1. Create a new folder on your computer.
2. Name it “Hillary Clinton”
3. Send it to the trash.
4. Empty the trash.
5. Your PC will ask you, “Do you really want to get rid of “Hillary Clinton?”
6. Firmly Click “Yes.”
7. Feel Better?
8. Tomorrow we’ll do Ted Kennedy.

I don’t know if that is an appropriate title for this post, but that is the first thing that I thought when I saw this picture.  On Thursday May 22, I was driving over to my Mom’s house to go camping, and I saw this van.

Normally in June there is not any snow.  However, as I speak, there is quite a bit of snow in Northern Idaho, and there is also snow with periods of whiteouts in Dead Man’s Pass near Pendleton, Oregon.  This phenomenon kind of also backs up one of my beliefs.

My belief is that I think Global Warning is one of the biggest pieces of cow manure that there is. I don’t believe that this whole “man-made climate change” is really true.  I think that global warming is officially over and done with. The movie done by Al Gore called “An Inconvenient Truth” was actually full of lies and should have been called “A Very Convenient Lie”.

Back to what I mentioned earlier, about the snow in June, I think that now people will start talking about how we are in a “Global Cooling.”  Over the last ten years, the temperature has been going down every year. And as far as Global Warming is concerned, I have not been able to find any kind of agreement in the scientific community that there is any kind of man-made climate change.
