Irish Twins?

Thought we could use a new post and a possible chuckle.  

So, am I crazy or could these two be Irish twins? 

 Happy St. Patrick's Day!

It doesn't have to be boring.

The Constitution, that is. When people and states blatantly violate it, it can be very interesting, in fact!  Case in point, Article VI, paragraph 3, which states that:

"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."

Sounds good, doesn't it?   Except for these Articles, found in different *state Constitutions :  

Arkansas, Article 19, Section 1:
No person who denies the being of a God shall hold any office in the civil departments of this State, nor be competent to testify as a witness in any Court.
Maryland, Article 37:
That no religious test ought ever to be required as a qualification for any office of profit or trust in this State, other than a declaration of belief in the existence of God; nor shall the Legislature prescribe any other oath of office than the oath prescribed by this Constitution.
Mississippi, Article 14, Section 265:
No person who denies the existence of a Supreme Being shall hold any office in this state.
North Carolina, Article 6, Section 8
The following persons shall be disqualified for office: Any person who shall deny the being of Almighty God.
South Carolina, Article 17, Section 4:
No person who denies the existence of a Supreme Being shall hold any office under this Constitution.
Tennessee, Article 9, Section 2:
No person who denies the being of God, or a future state of rewards and punishments, shall hold any office in the civil department of this state.
Texas, Article 1, Section 4:
No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office, or public trust, in this State; nor shall any one be excluded from holding office on account of his religious sentiments, provided he acknowledge the existence of a Supreme Being.

Anyone have any thoughts on all this?  And please, feel free to discuss anything that interests you more, including what we were discussing in the old post.  :-)

The day after.

So, regardless of how the vote went, the result of this election was, sadly, going to be...

...a destruction of our Constitutional rights.

But, it's done and over.  Now, we sit back and watch our country crumble.  Don't agree it will?  Why not? Think Here's the time for some good, even heated, discussion about it all and it not be on Facebook.  I know I can't be the only one holding back there in order to keep a little peace with family and friends.  :-)  So, who is happy about Obama winning?  Why?  Who isn't?  Why?  Did anything pass in your state that you agree or disagree with and want to discuss?  Go for it.  And please, check all your damn political correctness at the door, grab some balls to strap on and just let it out. what better place than here?

A shiny, fresh new post!

I hope I'm right in thinking we could all stand a lighter subject around here.  :-)

So, the election is upon us and being the equal both-main-parties hater than I am, I shall share these two gems for y'all to discuss and offer enlightening thoughts about.

1. Roboromney.com
Go, try it.  Change your stance and try it again...watch Mitt agree with you each and every time, complete with a video of him doing so, to prove it isn't fake.

2. It appears Obama wears a wedding ring with the words "There is no God but Allah" on it.  Here's one site but Google it, there are tons of others showing the same stuff and more. The birthers are having a field day and the mainstream media isn't saying a word.  Thoughts?  http://www.wnd.com/2012/10/obamas-ring-there-is-no-god-but-allah/

What we need is a...

...against them both.  ;-D

Heartbeat, it's a lovebeat...

I hope this works, as I've never tried imbedding a .gif before.  Anyway, if you watch and concentrate on the one in the middle that moves a lot, you'll begin to feel and sort of hear the rhythm of it in your chest.  It's really cool and will work for most people so good luck.  If it doesn't work for you,  sorry...there's just something wrong with you.  

No reason.

Just because.  :-D

Have some soup with a side of FYI...

I can't believe I'm posting a Guy FieTi video, as he gets on my very. last. nerve. but the fact is, this is some good soup!  It looks and sounds odd, but trust me, it's sooo good and with Fall around the corner, I thought I'd share.  The recipe I used will be below it.  :-)


I used this recipe:  http://www.keyingredient.com/recipes/150146/triple-d-cheeseburger-soup/ but I added some liquid smoke and also used canned evaporated milk instead of the half & half, since that's what I had on hand and didn't want to make a trip out. It worked just fine!  I served it with garlic toast but toasted hamburger buns with garlic butter and maybe a few pickle chips would be a cuter substitute.  So, there you go...a fun recipe to make when you're sick of the same ol' thing all the time.

Now, the FYI?  It's just a small one. This place is just dead, so this will probably be the last post here, at least for a long time, unless it somehow picks up.  If any of y'all want me to start a topic with something you want to discuss, email me and let me know at anemonepie at yahoo dot com.  Also, if any of y'all are hanging out someplace fun, please share so those of us who miss "chatting" with a variety of people can stop by and visit.  Thanks!  :-)
