The Things You See On Social Media

   A friend of mine shared this on his social media page, and I had to post something about this. Dunno where this was (somewhere in my home country Canada), but I'm guessing they're in for a fun summer. It may be small and frosty, but if it lasts all summer (and for 99 cents) it might be worth it!
  If you're in to that sort of thing. Me, I prefer the DQ Blizzard

Test Of Faith: FAIL

   And an epic fail as well. Seems a 'pastor' somewhere in Africa tried to walk on water to show his congregation he could. He couldn't. He waded about 100 feet into a river, and met his doom. I guess I should mention at this point the river was known locally as Crocodile River (where's Mick Dundee when you need him?) with the expected result. A nice feed for the Crocs. At least 3 of them, who a local resident says "took him down".
   “They finished him in a couple of minutes. All that was left of him when they finished eating him was a pair of sandals and his underwear floating above the water.” Our witness went on to say  “We still don’t understand how this happened because he fasted and prayed the whole week." Emergency services got there 30 minutes later, but by then the Gators were already having a good belch.
   I'm guessing it happened for one of several reasons. 1). 'god' was pissed off with him. 2). He fucking waded into Crocodile River. About the only thing he didn't do was smother himself in bar-b-cue sauce first. 3). He tested his faith and it failed because 'god' does not exist. I'm going with a combination of 2 and 3.
   And people wonder why I have NO faith in religion.

What Did Donald Do Now

   The Donald has been very much in the news lately, and it's not been an easy week for him, either. He's pissed off the FBI by firing director James Comey. And not (apparently) for the agency's continuing probe into allegations of Russian interference in the election, either.
   Nope! Apparently Trump was going to say "You're Fired" anyway. But, needless to say, the timing
of the move is somewhat suspect. Comey is, apparently, ready to fight back. I'm thinking things will get ugly. Shit, there are some analysts out there suggesting Trump's firing Comey could be grounds for impeachment.
   If that's not enough, then there's this little supposed bombshell. Trump handing sensitive (ie: classified) info over to the Russians. To be fair, I'm not sure exactly what the fuck it was over (allegedly), but it's caused a shit-storm. His  National Security Advisor even came out to "brief" the press with a 15 or 20 second long statement basically calling the allegations unfounded, and not true.
   Somewhere George Bush Jr. is chuckling loudly about not being the worst president in history any more. And we're not even 6 months into the new administration!
   Good times, good times.
