Rants, Raves, and other Useful Information: Beer Revealed as Historic Female Plot...

Rants, Raves, and other Useful Information: Beer Revealed as Historic Female Plot...: "Beer Revealed as Historic Female Plot... - Comment (0) To test the theory, 50 men were fed 6 pints of beer each within a one hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men: talked excessively without making sense; became overly emotional; couldn't drive; failed to think rationally; argued over nothing; had to sit down while urinating; and refused to apologize when obviously wrong. No further testing was considered necessary... This was funny enough that I had to repost it. On the same site, right underneath this article, are warning labels for different products. I suggest you check that out as well. posted by Candie Goodyear at 11:15:50 AM"

KERRY’S ‘UNWAVERING’ COMMITMENT TO ISRAEL

1amc Joined: 26 Aug 2004 Posts: 2 Location: Lost in Cyberspace Posted: Fri Aug 27, 2004 11:13 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: KERRY’S ‘UNWAVERING’ COMMITMENT TO ISRAEL

As president, I will never pressure Israel to make concessions that will compromise its security. My commitment to a safe and secure Jewish state is unwavering... We must stand with Israel, supporting our ally's right to build a security fence... As president, I will use bold diplomacy to get governments to recognize the growing crisis of resurgent anti-Semitism, and take action to deal with it...

I believe that the time has come for the American people to demand that the relationships, between the United States, Israel and certain Israeli groups be reviewed immediately. Israel and certain Israeli groups will always put the interest of Israel and their own ideologies ahead of any thought of America or the rest of the world. My perspective at this time goes like this, 9-11 was “Tonkin Bay 2001” and it was extremely successful. Now we have to “DEAL WITH IT”. 9-11 was a conspiracy that continues within America. The actors that conspired to stage the event are criminals, pure and simple. The list of crimes they committed will be large, as will the number of individuals that will be caught and prosecuted for these crimes. I tend to disagree with the assumption that this has to be a massive conspiracy; I think we may find that a relative small number of persons actually working for the government, and others working within the government were actually involved in the prosecution of the traitorous deed itself. The conspirators that planned the 9-11 events are more than likely outside the criminals that originated the ideal of using an event of such magnitude to change history and lead our country on the courses we now travel. The number of individuals needed to accomplish the act is directly related to the power of the persons involved. I also tend to lean heavily toward involvement by Israelis. “WE, THE JEWISH PEOPLE, CONTROL AMERICA, AND THE AMERICANS KNOW IT.” Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon October 3, 2001 (IAP NEWS) We do not need to wait 5-10-25-50 years to know the traitorous criminals that were involved in 9-11. (Northwoods 40 years) The ideologies that contemplated and carried out the criminal acts on 9-11 are a very real (Level Bright Red) threat to our country. Think about it; they committed what they thought were perfect crimes, escaping unknown and untouched. Now the depth and breath of their crimes are being exposed and they have nowhere to hide. The repercussions from the truth about 9-11 may be far reaching and with amazing changes in the relationships we now have with Israel. I do not think for a moment that certain groups of Israelis would hesitate in killing 3000 Americans, or 300,000 Americans, or 3,000,000 Americans if they thought the results would benefit their vision of Israel and the rest of the world. I do not for a moment think that certain Americans (powerful people, families, and corporations,) would hesitate in killing 3000 Americans, or 300,000 Americans, or 3,000,000 Americans if the results would benefit their visions of themselves and the rest of the world. Israel is somewhat like a child which has benefited from 50 plus years of leniency, and protection from an over zealous mother (USA) who would not listen to any sort of criticism whatsoever of her lovely child. Now the child has become a sociopathic serial mass murderer. Whatever relations we have from this point on with the State of Israel and certain related Israeli groups cannot continue to proceed as is, by outdated agreements and arrangements that blind us to the evil in the child. This is not Isramerica, or Jewmerica. This is the “United States of America” and even with all its warts and blemishes it is ours, not theirs. Our treasury and military are not supported by the citizens to be used or abused by any other county regardless of who they are. We cannot lose our democracy and solvency because of our subservience to any country or ideologies. We have to assume the role of leadership. You know the saying,”Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way”. We have to lead, we cannot follow, and we are too big and bad to get the hell out of the way. When I say bad, I do mean bad, we have the ability and the means to defeat any foe or foes on this planet. It is a given that we are by far the most potentially dangerous nation that has ever existed. How, we manage this massive power will probably decide the fate of this world. The enormity of American power is almost inconceivable, capable of turning the planet into a lifeless hunk of space debris. It makes no “difference” to history if the United States of America becomes a failed experiment in “Democracy”, but it damn well “matters” to history. This “Country’ was not built on the backs of our many millions of ancestors, mostly decent, hard working, and honest people, to be given away to any peoples, cults, political parties, or other country, so they could fund themselves, their friends (conspirators), and their ideologies as some kind elixir for World Government. Respects, I myself am fed up with America kissing Israel's Ass. Billions of dollars we give them. They have healthcare, cheap gas, hell, Sharon's comment? I'll vote for George Bush in a heartbeat if he would put AMERICA instead of Israel first. And yes George, I know you read this blog too. So how about it?

The Fifth Trumpet

Then the fifth angel sounded: And I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace. So the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. And they were not given authority to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man. In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them. The shape of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle. On their heads were crowns of something like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. They had hair like women's hair, and their teeth were like lions' teeth. And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots with many horses running into battle. They had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men five months. And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but in Greek he has the name Apollyon. One woe is past. Behold, still two more woes are coming after these things. Makes me wonder about our near future.

Delaware County Forum

Ok. I started a new forum to replace the archaic one on our PHP Nuke Web Portal. It is the same forums that are used at the Haverford Blog.If you care to post, do so.I could use the publicity to make the Forums a place to visit. Other than that, I'm just tired. Tomorrow I have to go back to Folcroft Vo Tech and install kitchen ovens. They weigh combined 1500 lbs and we need to stack them one on top of the other. I'll let you know tomorrow how it turned out.

Delaware County Forum

I've been working all day on this project. I really could use some input. What kind of subjects should I use? Do you like the layout? After reading the Haverford Blog so many times and looking at my now deleted forum page that never got any hits I installed the YaBB BBS. After an hour of setting file permissions,etc. I got it to work somewhat. So, How about joining it? I don't care where you live, I just need some registered members to make it look classy :) Cheers. I'm off to bed after 14 hours in front of this damn computer screen.

Rough day today. I had to finish re wiring the cosmetology classroom at Folcroft Vo Tech. 17 direct lines, each at 20 Amps, 120 volt were needed for the students new 1875 watt hair dryers. what I found Monday with the existing wiring was 14 gauge wire, with 4 duplex receptacles wired for each existing circuit, wired by the former electrical teacher's students. There's a storm brewing near Delaware County as I type, and from what I see on TV, It's nasty. Our son is over at Clifton Field, playing Drexel Hill in an exhibition game. imagine that. 11 and 13 year olds having exhibition games! Mike, I'll be over tomorrow sometime tomorrow to take care of those fluorescent lights. Well, I have to get some dinner now. Hot dogs and Milk. Cheers.

Delaware County

I just finished putting together a new index page for our web site. I used good old Microshit Front Page 2003 and Notepad. I used layers instead of tables. I still have a long way to go with this CSS thing and html. I like a clean and compact site, like blogger.com provides as is evidenced in this and other blogs. Please tell me how it looks on your computer and include the OS, display size and resolution. Thanks to Erica for letting me use her picture as a background too!

Haverford Blog Heating Up

I read the haverfordblog every day and lately it's turning into a soap opera. Grown Men & Women acting like little kids slinging mud and saying shit about "this one is no good" and such... Cripes, maybe someonme could write a book about it and make some money! Now I realize that the webmasters of the blog have good intentions about it, but it pains me to see it turn into nothing more than a Storm Drain. Good debates are worth reading and interacting with. but what we have here are lawsuits, threats, and just general nastiness. They all abound on the blog. But, hey! I enjoy reading it. Am I sick or what? I don't even live in Haverford but have worked there for over 20 years.Btw, I was in PEABODY'S on Friday. So, Why don't all the concerned bloggers of the Haverford Blog all get together at say the old Iron Gate or hell, WAWA for the teetotallers i.e (teetotal adjective never drinking alcohol or opposed to the drinking of alcohol teetotaller UK, US USUALLY teetotaler noun {C}and just have some fun! I just posted this reply to two combatants. Re: Curt Weldon's mailer - week of 8/9/2004 « Reply #2 on: Today at 1:16am » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'll be quite honest with both of you. Both Bush AND Kerry are losers. America is controlled by corporations, lawyers,and our "Friends" abroad. WE are all sheep, who instead of banding TOGETHER, fight and argue over being a Republican or Democrat, Liberal or Conservative,White or Black, Gay or Straight. I consider myself to be an AMERICAN, one who was revered in the world as being the most generous, outgoing people in the world. Peace to all you HT'ers. Ok. Bring it on! No, really guy and gals, lighten up. It's the weekend. Cheers.

More of Erica

She asked me tonight to shoot some more pictures. I had the camera,(an A-40 Canon)set at 1600X1200. The shots were not as good a clarity as I would expect. I am learning about this slowly! Well, you be the judge. (I reduced them a bit to 320X240 for my blog in Photoshop.) I think personally that if you knew her, you would agree that her personality does more for her than her good looks... And to think that Main Line Models & Talent told her to drop five pounds... Hell, picky people, aren't they?

Equal Time

Vanessa saw the picture of her sister Erica the other night. She asked me to take some shots of her so I did. She's 21 years old and one of the nicest women you can meet. And She's single too! Beautiful Smile...
Yours truly hamming it up with "Nessie"
Nice to see that through all the heartache both Vanessa and Erica and their family have been through concerning their brother Robbie, they still keep on Keepin' on. God bless all of you! Cheers Vanessa :-) BTW. Here is some pictures of their Brother Robbie Mac Neal. He was involved in a devastating car wreck in New Jersey on December 14th, 2003. He was in a coma for months and was first in Cooper Medical Center, then transferred to Jefferson , then onto Moss Rehabilitation Center. Many people have been touched by Robbie's resolve, one that's far greater than the "Chimp" that currently resides in the White House.
Robbie had been in that wheel chair now for 9 months, something to think about. The Accident involved no booze, no drugs, no speeding... Just some rotten black ice doing 50 M.P.H. coming home from a job he and his friend got selling discounted phone services while attending his freshman year at Neumann Collage. My heart has gone out to the kid who used to come up into my garage at 3 AM to inquire what the hell I was doing on my computer at that time of night, (Yes, I was banished to the garage by my wife at the time because of over indulging in the use of the motherboard. And that's another story.} Anyway, I'm working on a tribute section on the Totally Delco website that will be available in a few weeks. Until we 01 again.

CHRISTIANS WHO VOTE FOR BUSH IN DANGER OF LOSING THEIR SOUL

A guest posts: Christians are called to emulate Christ. As He lived His life here on earth. That's all we have to go by. The suffering Christ, not the vanquishing one yet to come. We are to follow Him to the cross if necessary, and are commanded to love those who crucify us. "Love your enemies" are His exact words. Jesus Christ did not "fight back". He did not "kick ass". He did not endeavor to destroy his enemies, or support those that were doing so. Rather, He COMMANDED us as Christians to LOVE them. UNCONDITIONALLY, as He loves us. Jesus Christ did not bomb women or children for any reason whatsoever. Nor would He ever condone or support such behavior. Jesus Christ abhored the behavior of Pharisees who prayed publicly and exploited their faith while doing evil behind the scenes. Nor would He have anything at all to do with, or support any kind of "War on Terrorism" whatsoever. Tough words. Tough commandments. Hard to live by. Even harder to die by. But undeniable. IF you're a Christian and believe in what the Bible says about Jesus Christ's life. Jesus Christ also warned of those who would come after Him, come in His name, claiming to be doing good in His name, but instead doing unspeakable evil. He warned all Christians against these people, telling us that they would come as "Angels of Light". He didn't go into specifics, but if He had, He might have said that they would promise to appoint judges to end abortion, promise to fund "faith-based" ministries and schools, and cast stones at rivals who "wanted to destroy the family by supporting abortion, voting against parental notification rights, give the 'morning-after' pill to our children," etc., etc. I hope you get my point by now. The AntiChrist will not come saying "I am evil, follow me". On the contrary, he will say "I am good personified, I will make the world a better place and give all that believe in me and support me everything they want that is good. I will protect the weak and innocent and make peace, and destroy all evildoers." I'm not saying Bush is THE AntiChrist, but he certainly qualifies as an antichrist, because every single thing he says, and most importantly, does, goes DIRECTLY AGAINST EVERYTHING that JESUS CHRIST taught, lived, believed, and DIED FOR. It is time for the Moral Majority and all who identify themselves as "Fundamentalist Christians" to decide what they really are; followers (emulators) of Christ or members or supporters of a worldly power-seeking political movement. YOU CANNOT BE A MEMBER OR SUPPORTER OF ONE and BELONG TO THE OTHER. Jesus Christ eschewed (avoided to the greatest extent possible) politics and political power at every turn in His life, and His own people turned on Him as a result, desiring a "strong" leader who would come as a conquerer and throw off the occupation of the Romans. There was a reason for this and He said it over and over again in His life; that the world of the Spirit was more important than the world of Man and that the world of Man would fall away and amount to nothing. Suffering to prove you loved your enemies was far more important than vanquishing them. But aren't we expected to make the world a better place? Absolutely. And Jesus told us how, by LOVING OUR ENEMIES. How do we do that? Find out what they want, why they want it, give it to them, and then give them more. If they ask for our shirt, to give them our cloak also. If they ask for our life or the lives of our loved ones, so be it. First Century Christians went to their deaths in the arena singing and praising God, rather than fight the Romans. How does this make the world a better place? By letting Christ's love so shine through us that all come to Him, by choice and free will. Not by coercion, and certainly not by force, murder, destruction, and worst of all, revenge. Unconditional Love is the only way to true lasting peace. Those First Century Christians' witness converted first a handful, then an emperor, then an entire empire, and eventually the entire world came to know of Jesus. Would this have happened if they died fighting against overwhelming odds? How many other ethnic or religious groups that died fighting the Romans do we know anything at all about today? Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I do NOT want you to stand before God at the final reckoning and have to experience the following: God asks you what you were doing when Bush was bombing women and babies (whatever Bush's reason; it doesn't matter) and you tell God "We were fighting to keep a hunk of rock in a courthouse" or "We were fighting to keep doctors from killing unborn babies" or worst of all "We were fighting to keep what we thought was a Man of God in the White House doing your work, Lord." A Christian can never lose their salvation, but they can lose their soul when they do what they feel is the right thing for all the wrong reasons. Or actually doing the wrong thing for all the right reasons. Jesus told us how to do the right thing for all the right reasons. It isn't easy. In fact, it's the hardest thing in the world to do. LOVE YOUR ENEMIES. But He also said He would help us do it, if we took the first step. May God grant you the power of discernment and the power to see "Angels of Light" for what they are. Know them by their works, not by what they claim to be. And may you never be blinded by much lesser meaningless works of seeming good, while abominable acts of unspeakable evil occurr immediately behind them. May God bless you and keep you, Leslie Bell P.S. You might say "What about the military? Doesn't somebody have to fight for freedom? What about our Christian young men and women in uniform?" My answer is going to be very hard, but it is going to be what Jesus taught. As Christians, we aren't to worry about or ever partake in "fighting for freedom" or for anything else; there will always be men and women who will take any opportunity given them to kill for any reason whatsoever. As Christians we aren't to join them, period. God will decide their fate. We are commanded to LOVE OUR ENEMIES. This doesn't ever include bombing, maiming, or killing them for our freedom, their freedom, or anything else. For those that already have done these things, there is complete absolution and forgiveness for all those that ask. Killing is sin. If we have done so, we are called to stop. As individuals and AS A GOD-FEARING NATION. Then what course of action is there left to take? Crying out the Truth, loud and long. That will be more than enough. Contributed by Leslie Bell

Britney Spears - What Gives?

What is it with this chick? First off, she seems to be a crybaby. Waaaaah! Waaaaah! I just saw her on TV. Unbelievable! She has her own Fragrance... It's called Curious Britney Spears. Well, I'm curious Brit. Just what are you going to think of next? Like those Hilton sisters, especially the one who looks like an Ethiopian. All that money, and Paris has to do porn movies like some low life crack whore from Darby. Oh.. Before I go. You know there is a Britney lookalike? Yes. lookie here.
And here is "Her" without her makeup on. It's a guy.... A dude. A sausage. A male. A human being with penile reproductive organs. Now you see Brit, you have some comptition that even Mr.Marcavage could learn to like. Off to bed. It's late.

Michael Marcavage Vs. Lansdowne

While reading the Daily Times this morning I came across an article sent in by Michael Marcavage, a man who lives in the borough. He proceeds to attack Kevin Lee, an openly gay man who recently was appointed to borough council. He cites from the Bible, (Romans, Chapter 1,) that "God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet." He goes on to explain that the laws of our nation were founded on the Bible, that it is of a moral foundation, one that dates back to the beginning of time itself. Well Mr. Marcavage, I agree with you, but only to a point. Yes I believe that God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. Men and Women are unique, and best physically equipped for intercourse with each other. Mr.Marcavage goes on to quip about the borough soon requiring children to read amongst other things, Books entitled: "Heather Has Two Mommies" and "Daddy's Roommate". Good Luck, you'll need it but please quit driving around in a bus with posters plastered on it showing aborted fetuses. That's where I draw the line, such as when the governor was in Lansdowne certain people showed up and in front of these same young children, exposed graphic posters of aborted fetuses. If I were present, I would have grabbed the posters, tore them up, then proceed to punch out them all. I probably would have landed up in jail, but it would be well worth it. That's why I love America. Again, good luck with taking on the powers that be in Lansdowne.

A Future Model? I think so...

Here I sit with Erica, our 17 year old neighbor. Her brother is Robbie, the young man who was tragically injured in a car accident in December of last year. Erica would like to become a model. I think that she has the potential to do it. In fact, tomorrow or over the weekend we will be doing a photo shoot (A portfolio?) of her for people to look at. Hopefully, someone who isn't a con artist and is REALLY connected with a reputable modeling agency will see the pictures and contact her thru me. Hey, free publicity is better than paying $300.00 dollars to those so called Modeling agencys that tell you that scour the papers looking for couples with newborns and contacting them saying that thier kid is soooo cute, now gimme money to put them on a commerical that never happens... Yes, and two things.. 1.Dont even think it and 2. It's not that I'm not a happy guy, it's just that I have really horrible crooked buck missing teeth and am embarrased. I need an extreme makeover. Vote for me on T.V. to get it done. I'm game.

Amazing Search Engines

The above link was obtained from my referrer log file on the server. Now just where do you see me posting links to escorts from Delaware County? Honestly, Delco Women on the whole wouldn't stoop to that level... Well, I do know one, right Mike? I wonder how old "Secret" and her pimp daddy are getting by these days? Still selling pizza's in Folcroft?

And another thing....

To the people who were flooded out in Upper Darby & Darby, e mail me and I'll post links to any relief fund addresses.

Lacking Ideas & Motive

I am kind of depressed about our web site www.totallydelco.com. I feel that it needs major help, new ideas from fresh minds. I started it mainly to provide links to businesses and such in and around Delaware County. I also wanted people to join the Web Portal so they could interact with the site. I will continue to work on the community pages and publish them in the next few months. Any ideas are gladly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes... Think about it. I'm tired of this "Fear Factor". Just WHO does control the "government" anyway? In Delaware County, you have Tom Judge, Charlie Sexton, Nick Micozzie, and My favourite: John McNichol.

Upper Darby Flood

Well I just cannot believe this! I went to visit my Mom down in Stonehurst. I couldn't get near her house because of the massive flooding at Marshall Rd and S. 69th. (Church La. To me.) Anyway, She has no power at all. While I was there, I went down the crick and lo and behold, my best friend Pete was there. He lives in Ridley but grew up with us down the park...

 The local news says that Upper Darby had over 4" of rain. And I believe them!

Avalon Pier

No, not the Avalon in New Jersey, this Avalon is in Nags head, North Carolina, the best place in the United States to vacation. My first visit there was in the Summer of '88, while Liz and I were going out for about a year. Her family had been going there since the early 70's and she told me what a wonderful place it was. She was right. After getting over the initial nervousness of crossing the Mason Dixon line for the first time, I felt like I was back in time. The first thing we did was to stop at a 7 Eleven in s. Nags Head, right before you go into the national seashore drive. When I walked in, the clerk (A young girl) greeted me with: How y'all doing today? May I help you ? I was floored! try getting that greeting at a sev in Philly! Well, needless to say, our week there was great. two people in love alone in a sound front home was heaven to me. I didn't want to return.

Avalon's Pier's live web cam

We made several trips down to Nags Head, the last being last year (2003.) For some pictures, Click Here. Any way, there are three main piers that I have been on in the Outer Banks. One, Jennette's Pier, started feeling the effects of Hurricane Isabel a few days after we left last year. It was totally destroyed. The second, Nags Head Pier, was also extensivly damaged but the buildings and pier remained standing. The third, Avalon Pier, in Kill Devil Hills, was also heavly damaged. In all, these three piers are excellent places to fish from, or just sit on all night.

You Call This a Storm ?

Yep. The roof is still leaking, right over Liz's side of the bed. She let me know about it about an hour ago. Leaking like it was taking a leak. (It's Sunday). As I sit here listening to the rumbles of thunder heading towards New Jersey, I had to re boot my machine. The router (A new linksys) also had to be rebooted. This crazy weather we"ve been having in the Tri State area is the result of mother nature being pissed. Notice the non use of the word Chemtrails. So, here's what I want to accomplish today. 1. Do the electrical work around the house that has been half done now since the ground outside was frozen. 2. Call somebody to check out the roof. (Fat chance on a Sunday) 3. Fix leak in ceiling of work van. 4. Install new hose bib and hose holder out front. 5.Visit mom and see what she needs done, if only to keep her company.
