Give Me Liberty University Or Give Me Death. Or Both.

Liberty University, the Chateau of Clueless founded by Jerry Falwell, has decided it ain’t real.

The decision by the school’s president, Jerry Falwell Jr., to partly reopen his evangelical university enraged residents of Lynchburg, Va. Then students started getting sick.

I dunno what everybody is so damn upset about. This is science. It’s a rare opportunity to see natural selection real time. Usually we have to wait thousands of years to see it. Now we’ll get to see it right freekin’ now.

When students started getting sick at the school with endowments of $2 billion, people in the surrounding community started saying they should not have opened the school.  Jerry Falwell, Jr., who now runs the joint, did what the right wing always does: he went from chest pounding arrogance to whiny victim in two seconds flat.

“We’re conservative, we’re Christian, and therefore we’re being attacked,” he [Falwell] said.

Michael Gillette, a former mayor of Lynchburg and a bioethicist now working with its hospitals on rationing scarce ventilators, disagrees.

“To argue that criticism of Liberty is based on political bias is unfounded and unreasonable,” he said. “Liberty just did not take this threat as seriously as others have.”

If Falwell thinks we’re going to let him kill a bunch of innocent people in surrounding communities without saying anything about it, he should be reminded that the Crusades are over.

So is my patience with these people.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Bubba and I just had to get out of the house so we went driving up to Bellville, Texas, to see where the new road construction goes.

Yeah, and we accidentally saw this.  Click here to see the big one.

 

 

You can’t read it from the picture but they say they will also have tee-shirts, yard signs, and all manner of really disgusting things.

And burgers.

I am certain the burgers will be on white buns and have mustard and cheese running over the edges to match Trump’s complexion.  The meat will come from a bull’s ass.  There were Trump 2000 signs everywhere.  Not many hospitals, I couldn’t help but notice.

 

The Times, They Are A’Changing

Coronavirus has everybody a little spooked.

Over the years I have brought you stories from Fayette County, Texas.  I have friends – Vickie, David, Cecil and Marsha – who happily live the urban life in the prettiest part of Texas.  But, their county isn’t boring, and even the crooks are practicing safe behavior during trying times.

How to rob Tillie’s cafe: First, the cash register didn’t look safe and  …. awww, just read it for yourself.

Thanks to David who had to send it to Vickie who had to send it to her other email account to be able to send it to me because their email is all screwed up in Fayette County this morning.
