Authorities said a man has been charged with domestic battery after he drenched his wife with a garden hose and elbowed her for smoking in the house. An arrest report shows that the 51-year-old husband was charged Saturday. Police said the couple began arguing when the wife began smoking a cigarette in their home.
The dowsing with the hose I mean. Not the elbow. That’s just vicious. Dowse her every time she lights up one of those cancer sticks. Better a wet and angry wife than a dead one.
Take my little quiz if you would. It’s just one question, and I’m very curious about your answers. If you attend meetings like the SBL or CBA or SOTS or another academically oriented conference, please take part.
Like this guy- who evidently doesn’t know that the photo he’s featured is 2/3rds backwards. Bad form sir, bad form! Freethinking apparently doesn’t include the ability to read Greek or Latin. Whoever came up with that monstrosity should be ashamed. The Hebrew is right, and everything else is wrong in orientation.
NB- Just in case he decides to fix it after my scornful denigration- here’s how he had it originally:
And admits that he lied last week concerning the number of encounters he had with his skank (though he is of course a skank himself, so I’m not singling her out as the only skanky person involved in all their skankiness).
South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford admitted Tuesday that he saw his Argentine mistress more times than previously disclosed, including what was to be a farewell meeting in New York chaperoned by a spiritual adviser soon after his wife found out about the affair.
Odd huh? Why’d he need a spiritual adviser (whatever that is) to be with him? To help him keep his pants on? Does he so lack self control that he isn’t able to call an end to his adulterous doings without someone there?
Besides that, he didn’t follow through and end it then anyway. He then went down to Argentina for yet another tryst.
The Senator Governor has now famously declared that he won’t resign- following David’s example, who after the Bathsheba skankery also didn’t resign. Folly. You, Senator, Governor, are no king with all the tyrannical powers associated therewith. You are a disgraced lying adulterer who owes it to the people of South Carolina to step down. It is the only honorable course of action. Be honorable for once. Quit.
Which, I suppose, would be about the same thing as the SBL sponsoring a side trip to some Bible Theme Park. What do I mean? The New York Times explains.
The worlds of academic paleontology and creationism rarely collide, but the former paid a visit to the latter last Wednesday. The University of Cincinnati was hosting the North American Paleontological Convention, where scientists presented their latest research at the frontiers of the ancient past. In a break from the lectures, about 70 of the attendees boarded school buses for a field trip to the Creation Museum, on the other side of the Ohio River.
The reaction of some of the Academics who attended is priceless…
“I’m speechless,” said Derek E.G. Briggs, director of the Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale, who walked around with crossed arms and a grimace. “It’s rather scary.”
Yeah, well you should try visiting Ron Wyatt’s exhibit or one of the many KJV only ‘museums’ here in the South… Talk about scary…
“I think they should rename the museum — not the Creation Museum, but the Confusion Museum,” said Lisa E. Park, a professor of paleontology at the University of Akron. “Unfortunately, they do it knowingly,” Dr. Park said. “I was dismayed. As a Christian, I was dismayed.”
And then this
“I hate that it exists,” said Jason D. Rosenhouse, a mathematician at James Madison University in Virginia and a blogger on evolution issues, “but given that it exists, you can have a good time here. They put on a very good show if you can handle the suspension of disbelief.”
And this
By the end of the visit, among the dinosaurs, Dr. Briggs seemed amused. “I like the fact the dinosaurs were in the ark,” he said. (About 50 kinds of dinosaurs were aboard Noah’s ark, the museum explains, but later went extinct for unknown reasons.)
And the best of all is saved for last
Dr. Sato likened the museum to an amusement park. “I enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed Disneyland,” she said. Did she enjoy Disneyland? “Not very much,” she said.
Priceless! With thanks to Mark Elliott for telling me about it.
The volume on the XII Prophets will be the next fascicle released early next year, according to a note I received today. That will be most useful indeed.
Obama Responds To Gay Anger: You’ll Be Happy In The End. So opines the front page of the Huffington Post. I can only add, yeah, I bet they will be … They change it on the actual story page. Evidently someone doing that particular bit was as bemused as I am.
