The Pajamahadeen

8 Woe to those who join house to house;
      They add field to field,
      Till there is no place
      Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land!
       9 In my hearing the LORD of hosts said,

      “ Truly, many houses shall be desolate,
      Great and beautiful ones, without inhabitant.
       10 For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath,
      And a homer of seed shall yield one ephah.”
       11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning,
      That they may follow intoxicating drink;
      Who continue until night, till wine inflames them!
       12 The harp and the strings,
      The tambourine and flute,
      And wine are in their feasts;
      But they do not regard the work of the LORD,
      Nor consider the operation of His hands.
       13 Therefore my people have gone into captivity,
      Because they have no knowledge;
      Their honorable men are famished,
      And their multitude dried up with thirst.
       14 Therefore Sheol has enlarged itself
      And opened its mouth beyond measure;
      Their glory and their multitude and their pomp,
      And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it.
       15 People shall be brought down,
      Each man shall be humbled,
      And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled.
       16 But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment,
      And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness.
       17 Then the lambs shall feed in their pasture,
      And in the waste places of the fat ones strangers shall eat.
       18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of vanity,
      And sin as if with a cart rope;
       19 That say, “Let Him make speed and hasten His work,
      That we may see it;
      And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come,
      That we may know it.”
       20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
      Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;
      Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
       21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes,
      And prudent in their own sight!
       22 Woe to men mighty at drinking wine,
      Woe to men valiant for mixing intoxicating drink,
       23 Who justify the wicked for a bribe,
      And take away justice from the righteous man!
       24 Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble,
      And the flame consumes the chaff,
      So their root will be as rottenness,
      And their blossom will ascend like dust;
      Because they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts,
      And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
       25 Therefore the anger of the LORD is aroused against His people;
      He has stretched out His hand against them
      And stricken them,
      And the hills trembled.
      Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets.

      For all this His anger is not turned away,
      But His hand is stretched out still.
       26 He will lift up a banner to the nations from afar,
      And will whistle to them from the end of the earth;
      Surely they shall come with speed, swiftly.
       27 No one will be weary or stumble among them,
      No one will slumber or sleep;
      Nor will the belt on their loins be loosed,
      Nor the strap of their sandals be broken;
       28 Whose arrows are sharp,
      And all their bows bent;
      Their horses’ hooves will seem like flint,
      And their wheels like a whirlwind.
       29 Their roaring will be like a lion,
      They will roar like young lions;
      Yes, they will roar
      And lay hold of the prey;
      They will carry it away safely,
      And no one will deliver.
       30 In that day they will roar against them
      Like the roaring of the sea.
      And if one looks to the land,
      Behold, darkness and sorrow;
      And the light is darkened by the clouds.

Murtha: Has the man gone insane?

With all that Rep. John Murtha has been touting in the news
media as of late you just have to ask yourself “Has the man lost his sanity?”
Whatever knowledge he may have had at one time seems to have been totally
scrambled now.

• His Geology is totally off
• His sense of distance is totally off.
• His knowledge of History is totally whacked.
• His ability to reason on simple issues (let alone complex ones) is nonexistent.
• He can not differentiate between reality and imagination.

And the list goes on, but what really is concerning me is the fact that he is so eager to pounce on our Marines, our servicemen and
women! There is absolutely no consideration of the possibility that just maybe these charges re totally bogus in the first place.

He just automatically takes the word of someone that we don’t know from Adam as factual over the official reports of this team of servicemen? What the hells up with that?

Next it’ll be “Nine out of Ten voices in my head say…” fill in the ludicrous blank here _____.

You know what I think, I think that if Murtha is a representation of the Democratic party (and politicians in general mind you) then maybe, just maybe, we need a good old fashioned House Cleaning, because, and I don’t know about all of you out there, but I’m way beyond “Sick & Tired” of hearing their lips flapping, their backstabbing, their voting themselves raises at 2 in the morning, their “Talking out their Asses without knowing the FACTS”, their pandering to the minorities, hell their pandering to the illegal’s, their screwing with our Constitution and Our God given rights (inalienable).

What about the rest of you? How long do we go on with a finger in our nose being led around like some brain dead lemming? We need more action and less diplomacy.

Hello everyone, well I went and did it and have changed the site over to Wordpress. I’ve been debating doing this for some time now and (being somewhat lazy) have been just putting it off. Please be patient with me as I finish getting this all setup and running and then I should be back to blogging once again.

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confident and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times.

The King’s 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered, I now have four wives with me, but when I die, I’ll be all alone.”

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, “I have loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I’m dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“No way!”, replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart. The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, “I have loved you all my life. Now that I’m dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“No!”, replied the 3rd wife. “Life is too good! When you die, I’m going to remarry!” His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, “I have always turned to you for help and you’ve always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“I’m sorry, I can’t help you out this time!”, replied the 2nd wife. “At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave.” Her answer struck him like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: “I’ll go with you. I’ll follow you no matter where you go.” The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was very skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect. Greatly grieved, the King said, “I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!”

In truth, we all have the 4 wives in our lives: Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul. Often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go.

Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us that will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

Thought for the day:

Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you’re in the perfect position to pray.
