Protestants start drinking before they meet Jesus. Catholics start drinking after they meet Him.

Thought for the Day!
'But we are all like an unclean thing, And all our righteousness are like filthy rags; '
Isaiah 64:6
Your four year old child gives you a drawing. How does that drawing compare to Rembrandt? Much like our works compare to God. Filthy rag. But you love that gift. You glorify it. You post it on the wall of your office and brag about it. God has our filthy rags posted all over His office.

Half Way Through June! - June 15, 2011
....and it's 55 degrees outside. If you're funding global warming research, you should probably think about putting your money elsewhere. A beard does not a "scientist" make.

45 degrees in Chicago by the way. Apparently the earth has not gotten the memo about global warming.
Overly Up-Beat - March 14, 2011
I don't like people who force themselves to look at the bright side of life for no reason.
They're like the slave in the hull of the ship saying: "It's not that bad! At least the chains provide a sense of security!"

Episcopal Church - October 13, 2010
In the Episcopal Church, we put the clowns in charge. Similar to the Democrats.
Went to Roman Catholic Mass This Morning - October 5, 2010
I knew I was in the right place when during the consecration my head rotated 360 degrees.
msnbc - June 17, 2010
msnbc is sort of like the the gay person in the room that you don't want to offend.
They keep talking and you try not to notice the way they sound.

Las Vegas - May 29, 2009
I added a few fun pics from my Las Vegas gig with Damian Williams at the, Palms Hotel, on May 8th.
A wonderful group of gals hired us for a surprise birthday party for their friend, Rhonda Mona.
It was a great time. Yikes, is all I can say.

Cactus Enima - February 17, 2009

The Kremona Orpheus - September 10, 2008
I just bought a new guitar. It's a Bulgarian Kremona Orpheus, Sofia model. All my other guitars are saying, "Who's the new Hot! German chick?"
My Leo Kottke twelve string is saying, "I'm a Leo Kottke Model!"
Sofia says, "Never heard of him."
My Joe Pass hollow body is saying, "I'm a Joe Pass Model jazz guitar."
Sofia says, "Never heard of him."
My Martin J40 six string is retarded. Mainly because of the multiple frontal lobotomies I've performed on him over the years. He just walks up to Sofia and says, "I like popcorn!"
