This has been circulating around. It appears to be the product of some Christofacist group hoping to discourage the sale of Girl Scout cookies.

Well, because of this, I will certainly be buying more Girl Scout cookies than usual this year and I would encourage you to do the same. Let’s make this their best  year ever.

On stage I make love to twenty five thousand people; and then I go home alone.

When I sing, I feel like when you’re first in love. It’s more than sex. It’s that point two people can get to they call love, when you really touch someone for the first time, but it’s gigantic, multiplied by the whole audience. I feel chills.

I’m one of those regular weird people.

Texas is OK if you want to settle down and do your own thing quietly, but it’s not for outrageous people, and I was always outrageous.

You know why we’re stuck with the myth that only black people have soul? Because white people don’t let themselves feel things.

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz.

  The ever erudite Frank Schaeffer has a few good ideas on what We the People can to do take on the corporacrats in the age of Citizens United, There's only one real answer (legislative parsing aside) to the Supreme Court's attack on democracy by its ruling that big business can spend its billions to support or oppose candidates. You're looking at it right here. Trust me, we have the power-- it's called corporate fear of losing money, time and privacy. I'm a blogger and writer. There are th...
• January 22, 2010 -- Countrymen, take your country back from the thieves
  I cannot emphasize enough how today's Supreme Court decision, Citizens United v. FEC, has completely undermined what shreds of democracy were left and has formally confirmed what we have had for years anyway, a corporatist kleptocracy.   This ruling puts a severe roadblock in the way of reclaiming our country for We the People. This is serous stuff, folks.  It's time for all of Americans to step up and become part of a serious populist movement to take over both political parties.  We need a ...

As a child growing up in El Paso I remember the El Paso Natural Gas Company’s blue flame which was visible from a distance, sitting high atop the gas company’s downtown building. Even though most of us called it the blue flame, its color could change each night, letting us know what to expect of the weather the next day. There was even this mnemonic for the meaning of the different colors,

 When the flame is blue, no change is due.

When the flame is red, warmer weather’s ahead.

When the flame is gold, cooler weather foretold.

A flickering flame means wind, rain or snow.

The part that runs through El Paso was on display Saturday for some participants of the National Latino Congreso that is meeting in the city. The controversial border fence, which was started in 2006 at a cost of $2.6 billion, was built by the federal government to prevent illegal immigration, to stop terrorists, to preve...

From NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day:

What’s that astronaut doing? Unloading a space shuttle — for the last time. After the space shuttle Atlantis docked with the International Space Station (ISS) last week, astronaut Mike Fossum underwent a long spacewalk that included carrying a Robotics Refueling Mission (RRM) payload from Atlantis’ cargo bay to a platform used by the space station’s famous robot DEXTRE. On Earth, the RRM box would have the weight of about three people and be much more difficult to carry. Pictured above on the far left, DEXTRE prepares to help move a failed space pump back to Atlantis. Visible behind the astronaut is the space station’s Kibo Experimental Module. The much awaited final shuttle return flight is currently scheduled for 5:56 am EDT Thursday, July 21.

For people of my generation and younger, there there is no memory of any other means of U.S. space transportation. It's the end of the longest chapter in U.S. manned space exploration.

Here is a really great photo today at NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day site. Click to enlarge.

A starry night over the city of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates is really not so starry. In fact, the Moon is the only celestial beacon to come close to competing with city lights in this night skyscape, a situation all too familiar to urban skygazers. The futuristic looking scene is dominated by the 800 meter tall Khalifa Tower, presently the tallest free standing structure on planet Earth. But for now you should also be able to make out a few of the very brightest stars in Earth’s night sky. Capella is left of the tower and Aldebaran, Betelgeuse, Rigel, and stars in Orion’s Belt can just be identified in the heavily light-polluted skies. Need some help finding them? Slide your cursor over the image.
