Murrow saw the future in 1958.

We are currently wealthy, fat, comfortable and complacent. We have currently a built-in allergy to unpleasant or disturbing information. Our mass media reflect this. But unless we get up off our fat surpluses and recognize that television in the main is being used to distract, delude, amuse and insulate us, then television and those who finance it, those who look at it and those who work at it, may see a totally different picture too late.

Nailed it

The whole world is going to hell in a handbasket. So what else is new.

This guy was fooling around with my boobs, when suddenly a boob zit pops all over his face. He is disguisted and leaves.

With a tender conscience, answer this list of the Ten Commandments:

   1. Have I always loved my Creator with all my heart, mind, soul and strength?    YES or NO
   2. Have I made a god in my own image – a god to suit myself?                            YES or NO
   3. Have I ever used God’s name in vain?                                                               YES or NO
   4. Have I kept the 7th day (Saturday) Sabbath holy?                                              YES or NO
   5. Have I always honored my parents implicitly?                                                    YES or NO
   6. Have I murdered (God also considers hatred as murder)?                                YES or NO
   7. Have I committed adultery? (includes premarital sex and lust)?                        YES or NO
   8. Have I stolen (the value is irrelevant)?                                                                 YES or NO
   9. Have I lied (including fibs & these questions)?                                                    YES or NO
  10. Have I coveted (been greedy or materialistic)?                                                   YES or NO

C3PO is lazy and stupid

Are you a fan of Adlai Stevenson, OP?

Now, these are the Teen Commandments:

1. Stop and think before you drink.

2. Don't let your parents down; they brought you up.

3. Be humble enough to obey. You will be giving orders yourself someday.

4. At the first moment, turn away from unclean thinking, at the first
moment.

5. Don't show off driving. If you want to race, go to Indianapolis.

6. Choose a date who would make a good mate.

7. Go to church faithfully. The Creator gives you the week; give Him back an
hour.

8. Choose your companions carefully. You are what they are.

9. Avoid following the crowd. Be an engine, not a caboose.

10. Or even better, keep the original Ten Commandments.
