Baptist Leader: Just Rush Insane Gunmen

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Some conservative Baptist leader thinks students facing insane gunmen like the one at Virginia Tech should simply rush the guy. OK, that holds some water to me. It’s what I would do. After all, he only had pistols. He has to reload. However, who are we to judge the actions of someone in such a situation? Sure, we’d all like to look gung ho, but in the face of such danger we may cower in fear…

The head of a Southern Baptist seminary told male students they should charge an attacker if confronted with a situation like last week’s Virginia Tech shootings.

Paige Patterson, president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, made the comments at a chapel service April 18, two days after Seung-Hui Cho fatally shot 32 people before killing himself.

“All you had to do was have six or eight (students) rush him right at that time and 32 people wouldn’t have died,” Patterson said. “You don’t let things like that happen, guys. We just don’t do it.”

Patterson, who helped lead the 1979 conservative takeover of the Southern Baptist Convention, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he doesn’t regret the remarks. He said he wasn’t criticizing actions taken at Virginia Tech, though he said his comments were characterized that way by some “for less than noble reasons.”

Vacation Rentals

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

I first learned of where I lived through the once bustling business of vacation rentals. This area I live in used to be the epicenter of activity on the timeshare and vacation rental market back in the mid 1980s. Now since cooling down, it has become the quintessential town gone mad, exploding in population both legal and illicit. I don’t know if it was just destined to happen or what, but this could still be a retirement and vacation destination if the cards had been dealt differently.

Communion Gifts

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

I have always wondered why these ardent Christians are so obsessed with gift-giving? I mean, I enjoy giving and getting stuff as little as anyone else, but these people have taken it too far. Weddings and funerals have both become commercialized with gift-giving. I even heard a Catholic family giving out invitations, hoping to garner funds using the veil of first communion gifts put suspiciously on invitations to said event. I don’t know sometimes, man.

Powell Furniture

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

I was at the furniture store the other day. You bet I was excited… Yeah right. I hate shopping for furniture and linens. As a male, I could frankly care less about bedding or the soap dishes in the bathroom. I had to at least feign interest when we went to the store, though. I was actually impressed with this line we went with called Powell Furniture it was reasonably priced and the wife likes it, so it’s good in my book.

About Drug Rehab

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

I often wondered what happened to old friends from places I used to live in. I always wondered the most about my Dakota crew, comprised of Kyle, David, and Josh. I actually got to meet Josh again via MySpace. The kid is now  a steady goth rock star. He says Kyle from back in the day now works at K-Mart and David recently got out of drug rehab in Kentucky. Now he was turning himself over to Christ.

Levitra

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

You know, I bought a subscription to a popular sports package on the internet, allowing me to see every baseball game that happens all summer. It’s great – and it’s $90. You have to tack on another $40 to get the premium package with higher quality video. Even then, you must endure Levitra commercials between innings. All in all, though, a very good package. For ninety dollars, I guess it comes out to about $2 a game for what I’ll watch.

Hangover Cures

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

After weeks of nonstop partying, my friends and I began to look for the most bizarre hangover cures we could think of. There was this pill advertised on TV made of charcoal which claimed to eliminate your hangover by ushering toxins out of your body. So in between our first two cheap vodka screwdrivers, we all took one of these pills. The next day, effects were negligible. I guess cheap vodka is destined to give you a headache.
