Jehovah's Witnesses

White Trash Wednesdays

I like sleeping late on weekends. I don't normally get to bed til about three o'clock in the morning most days, and I got to get up early most weekdays. Well, I don't got to, but when the school buses come by, it wakes me up.

Anyway, on Saturday mornings since there ain't no school buses, I get to sleep in. And sleep it off.

But this past Saturday, there come a knock on the door. Me and the old lady looked at each other and wondered who in the world it coulda been. Since she didn't move, and since they kept beating on the door, I found me the cleanest t-shirt on the floor and put it on. I grabbed me a pair of dungarees and slid them on too, then stepped over the pizza boxes and went to the front door.

I moved the curtain aside and there was this fellow standing there just a smiling. There was a Dodge van in the yard with three other folks inside.

I opened the door. Big mistake.

He started talking about how bad this country was going down the road to hell and did I have a sense that something was missing and something else, but I warn't fully awake so I don't know what all he said.

I stood there, needing to go pee real bad, shifting from one leg to the other. I nodded with him on most of what he said, agreeing with much of it.

He ended up leaving me a copy of the Watchtower and thanking me. And then left quickly. Probably because I had farted.

Then he got back in the van and they headed back to the road to go visit someone else.

I told the old lady and she got onthe phone and started to calling all the neighbors to warn them. Some had to get the kids to the back of the house so they wouldn't answer the door. Others had to run out the back when the Jehovah's Witnesses got to the front porch. Others untied the dogs.

Anyway, I'm not making fun of the Jehovah's Witnesses. They have a good sense of right and wrong. You dont' usually got to worry about one of them knocking over a liquor store or robbing a bank. So I aint't got nothing bad to say about them.

I don't agree with everything they preach. Like Heaven will take 144,000. No more, no less.

But I could be wrong on that point and they could be right. About the 144,000. Cause I know they got that many. That's how many Jehovah's Witnesses have knock on my front door in the last six months.

Perverts, Perverts Everywhere And Not A Brain To Think

Hey, anyone want to have fun with a pervert?

Yeah, I got one lurking around here. So, if anyone wants to have fun with them, knock yourself out. After all, he's asked for it. No really. He did.

Here's the e-mail he sent me (language, spelling, other illiteracy warnings):

Monday Makeup Meme

I've done a bad thing. Okay, two bad things.

Alright, I've done other bad things, but this is one bad thing in particular I need to make good.

In December, I was tagged with a meme. And I didn't participate.

No, I don't have to participate in silly memes, but because someone thought enough to tag me, I need to repay the compliment (or insult, whichever) by playing along.

Not that you have to. No, not by any means. That's just how I feel about it.

Anyway, I was tagged and didn't play. That's bad thing number one. Or 1A.

You see, the other bad thing I did was forget who tagged me.

I've thought of another bad thing. I didn't click my blogroll and check all the posts on all the sites until I found the blog that tagged me and what it was about.

So, if you tagged me, let me know. Comment, TrackBack, or e-mail. Just let me know. I want to make it right.

As a way of penance (Baptists can do penance, right?) I'm going to do a couple of memes. But not tag anyone. Since I wasn't tagged by these, and since those that did these didn't tag anyone. But I'm attempting to make things right. In my own special way.

Jack Grant (Randon Fate) did this back in October.
What were three of the stupidest things you have done in your life?

  1. Run with an axe. I nearly lost a finger and still have a nasty scar.

  2. Listened to loud music (or music loudly). I have a hearing loss because of it.

  3. Didn't take my first year of college seriously. It took me years to overcome what I lost that year.


At the current moment, who has the most influence in your life?

  • George Massey. I worked with George years ago. I don't even know if he's alive now. But he told me during a disagreement that he didn't want to hear 50 reasons why something couldn't be done, but one way something could be done. That taught me that there's a way to do most anything that needs to be done. I never forgot that.


If you were given a time machine that functioned, and you were allowed to only pick up to five people to dine with, who would you pick?

  1. My deceased maternal grandfather.

  2. My deceased paternal grandmother.

  3. My deceased paternal grandfather.

  4. My deceased nephew.

  5. My deceased father-in-law (who I never met).


If you had three wishes that were not supernatural, what would they be?

  1. Financial security for the children.

  2. A long, happy life for the children.

  3. Live to see the grandchildren grown.


Name two things you regret your city not having, and two things people should avoid.

  1. Loyal sports fans

  2. Good barbeque (I do not like what passes for barbeque here)



  1. Asking me stupid questions

  2. Most other drivers on the highway (if you cannot get a driver's license anywhere else, they'll let you drive here)


Name one thing that has changed your life.

  • Computers


Keep the virus alive. Swap spit with five hotties.

  • No, since I wasn't sent this, I won't send it on. I'm doing it as penance, remember? But if you want to run with it, by all means...



Another meme I'm doing as penance is one I found at Naked Villany last week:

  1. Radio news director

  2. Electronics salesman

  3. Truckstop manager

  4. Soldier


FOUR MOVIES YOU COULD WATCH OVER AND OVER

  1. Casablanca

  2. Monty Python and the Holy Grail

  3. The Right Stuff

  4. Blazing Saddles

  2. Without Remorse - Tom Clancy

  3. Jurassic Park - Michael Crichton

  4. I, Robot - Isaac Asimov

  2. Gainesville, FL

  3. Valdosta, GA

  4. Phenix City, AL

  3. Monk

  3. New Orleans

  4. Washington, DC


FOUR WEBSITES YOU VISIT DAILY

  1. Pyjamas Media

  2. Pajamas Mediocrity

  3. It'sAPundit

  4. Public Eye


FOUR OF YOUR FAVORITE FOODS

  1. Hamburgers

  2. Steak

  3. Pizza

  4. Broccoli


FOUR PLACES YOU'D RATHER BE RIGHT NOW

  1. At a baseball game

  2. At a football game

  3. At the beach

  4. In bed



So, I consider my penance paid for forgetting the memes. But I still owe a meme. This was just the interest on the debt.

Anyway, If you've tagged me for a meme and I failed to follow through, please leave a comment, a TrackBack, or e-mail me the link. I'll make it good.
