Tom and I have been discussing canceling our cable. After a long discussion, we determined our DVR is currently set to record three different kinds of programs:
Programs we like (10%) Programs we watch when there’s nothing else to watch (15%) Programs we thought the other person liked so we sit through them and pretend to be happy [...]
Hey, here’s a public announcement just for giggles: If you get into a relationship with a married man who gets caught, you have NO reason to complain and demand a personal apology. You’re a slut and no one cares about your feelings — except Jesus, and that’s only because he wants you to stop acting [...]

Prepping for my Saturday Sabbath is a big deal. Not only am I preparing breakfast and finishing up chores, I have to make a meal that will serve as leftovers for lunch and dinner the next day — I’m not cooking on my day off! One of our favorite dishes that I pull [...]
The change from worship to any other, structured music is like going from the game “Operation” to actual brain surgery.
