My Favorite Movie

August 09, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Y’all, movie of the year.  No kidding.  This thing is fabulous.

Michael Leisner decided to stand in front of the General Mills headquarters and set fire to a box of Cheerios to protest that General Mills doesn’t properly detest and hate gay people.  Director, producer, writer and star Mr. Leisner does not like gay people.

I not too fond of the ending, though.  Now, if he had set the bottoms of those blue jeans on fire, I would have given this flick 5 stars and a standing ovation.

Charges are being filed.

Okay, comment away but no Fruit Loop or Coco Puffs jokes.  I’m serious, y’all.

Scaredy Mitt

Okay, can we get the Bishops at least half as hacked-off about the behavior of priest doing crazy crap as they do about the Nuns On The Bus?

The group behind the Nuns On A Bus tour that highlighted the ill-effects of the House Republican budget in congressional districts across the country is now setting its sights on the party’s presidential candidate, inviting Mitt Romney to spend a day with the nuns to learn about the plight of America’s poorest citizens.

Just a day, Mitt.  Just a day.  Nobody is asking you to give money or anything, Mitt.  In fact, you can probably hide some of your money in the empty houses you’ll see.

Come on, Mitt, are you seat puckering scared of  a bunch of nuns?  Won’t your secret underwear save you from them?

Bwahahaha … Ole Mitt would be scared like a rabbit in a coyote’s back pocket around those nuns.

Thanks to Stephen for the heads up.

Give It Back, Rick

Here’s the rule.  You can donate $2,500 to a candidate for federal office per election cycle.  The catch is that you can donated $2,500 for the primary and $2,500 for the general election.

Rick Perry decided that he’d get people to just go on and give him the entire $5,000 up front during the primary because he figured, I guess, that if he hacked off all his donors but still won the primary, he already had their money.  In truth, I suspect he just wanted to make it look like he had more money in the primary than he could actually spend.  Because he’s not good at math.

So, here comes reckoning time.  Click here for a PDF of a letter Rick just got from the FEC.  It says (1) Give the damn money back (Okay, so the FEC doesn’t say damn.  I think their Momma is even stricter than mine.  But, that’s what they were thinking.) or (2) make people write you a letter saying that it’s okay for you to keep their money if you use it to run for Governor.

So, here’s my point.  If you get a letter from Rick Perry, do not open it.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for keeping up with this stuff.

Since We’re Talking About the Steeple People …

Not to be outdone by the nakkid Catholic priest with a laptop, the Baptists cued up their best shot in the Hypocrite Olympics.

Pastor Jack wrote the book on it.

Jack Schaap, a pastor at First Baptist Church of Hammond, Ind., who admitted to having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old member of the church, was fired on Wednesday, according to CBS Chicago, citing officials from the church.

At a meeting with congregants Wednesday night, church officials revealed that Schaap, 54, was being investigated for misconduct with a 17-year-old girl.

Except, she’s not 17, she’s 16.  Now, this ain’t your regular little ole corner neighborhood church, my friends.

This is Super Mega Baptist Church with with Sunday morning services broadcast on the electric teevee set all across America.  I’m coming real close to saying that this is exactly what happens when you don’t talk about sex too much.

There’s a cherry on top of this Sundae – Jack Schaap is an accomplished writer of Christian books, including some tasty titles like, Dating with a Purpose: Common Sense Dating Principles for Couples, Parents, and Youth Workers, Opening the Door to the Unclean Spirits, and Marriage: The Divine Intimacy.

His website is scrubbed clean.

Maybe he and the priest can share a cell at the pokey.  Yes, I said pokey.

Thanks to Stephen for the heads up.

Ehhhh, Looks Like Charles Manson To Me

Beeville, Texas, is between San Antonio and Corpus Christi.  That means it rests securely between St. Anthony and the Body of Christ, which is probably a cool place to be.

And now we have proof.

Eighty-year-old Ernesto Garza opened his taco and Holy Beejeebers, there’s this.

“I looked at it for five minutes,” Garza said.

In disbelief, he asked a friend next to him what she thought the face on the tortilla looked like. Garza’s friend looked at it and jumped from her seat.

“Jesus,” she said.

It wasn’t long before everyone at the adult daycare heard about the Jesus tortilla.

You know, I suspect Taco Jesus would spread from here to over yonder quicker than a minnow can swim a dipper.

And in the understatement of the year …

Sure enough, she said, Garza found Jesus on his breakfast bacon and egg taco.

“We believe God works in mysterious ways,” Rodriguez said.

Yeah, personally, I always thought God was an enchilada fan.

Thank to HeyZeus for the heads up.

And Then They Have To Wear a Big Red A On Their Chest

August 08, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Louisiana, home of Bourbon Street, has decided to crack down on floozy women.

And their starting place is Delhi Charter School in Delhi, Louisiana.  The school has decided that …

If an administrator or teacher suspects a student is pregnant, a parent conference will be held. The school reserves the right to require any female student to take a pregnancy test to confirm whether or not the suspected student is in fact pregnant. The school further reserves the right to refer the suspected student to a physician of its choice. If the test indicates that the student is pregnant, the student will not be permitted to attend classes on the campus of Delhi Charter School.

Any student who is suspected of being pregnant and who refuses to submit to a pregnancy test shall be treated as a pregnant student.

Not to be a grammar nut or anything, and this is certainly the most least of my thoughts about this stuff, but exactly what does the Delhi School mean by “suspected student?”  I mean, if they are there and going to class and registered and all, what suspicion is involved with the definition of student? Huummmm … let’s see, you show up every day, take the tests, your name is on the roll, you call me ma’am, you do the homework assignments, you eat in the cafeteria … I suspect you’re a student?

And why does that suspected student have to go to the doctor the school chooses?  Why can’t they go to their own doctor?

But, and I know this is just a minor, picky thing, WHAT the fool hellfire tarnation are they doing randomly testing females for being pregnant?  And then, kicking them out?  Are they also kicking out the suspected student who is the other half of this operation?

Now, I scampered over to the Delhi Charter School’s website, which is pretty sad and crappy because they spend all their time worrying about pregnant suspected students instead of taking care of business.  However, they do have a 216 page policy manual.  That’s right, they cover everything from that to this —

They offer sex education?  Really, now?  I’ll bet that’s the shortest 5 minutes in all of Louisiana.

Thanks to Carl for the heads up.
