Most of you know by now that Author and future ex-Mrs Voit, Anne Rice announced recently her decision to leave Christianity. As much as I adore her, I was worried that many would follow in her footsteps due to her celebrity rather than make their own decision based on what was inside them. Too many times people follow blindly the advice of a celebrity without question and this is dangerous. Many times I have shot back at certain celebs for voicing their opinion on issues of the day without really understanding the core of the topic. One particular musician from my hometown spouts bullshit from time to time about the state of the world and then I laugh raucously as obsequious troll after troll lends their support to this celebs irresponsible rant.
The Anne Rice situation is different however, because as much as I hate to say it, my chosen religion needed a wake-up call and someone to lead those who are still spiritual into a new dawn where what is preached is actually practiced. I have decided to follow her out of Christianity due to several recent incidents, the final one being the planned burn a Koran day planned by a church in Gainesville, Florida. So, to cut this short, here I come Anne Rice, lead the way.
On to the proposed Koran burning. As a member of our nation's military, I am disgusted that we are called upon to defend the rights of people who only want to spread hate. I'm talking to you Terry Jones and Fred Phelps! Terry Jones should be charged with murder if one American is killed because of his church's actions. A church with the word Dove in it! Isn't the dove a sign of peace? And Fred Phelps? Well GOD HATES FRED PHELPS AND HIS OVERWEIGHT FAMILY.
Good Deed Quest
Ok I have several updates to my quest for 365 good deeds in 365 days.
I bonded with my youngest son
I surprised my daughter with a special treasure box. She helped me paint it but did not know it was for her when we did it.
After posting what I was doing with FreeRice.org a member of Bloodletting.org started a group over there. I joined and am pleased to say that we are in the top 5 world wide for earning grains of rice for countries in need.
I spent time with my mother and Uncle and hopefully eased a little bit the loss of their sister.
I mentored a young SSgt on the future of her career in the Air Force.
I organized and executed a retirement BBQ for our outgoing Chief.
I helped my 16 year old get started on his own workout program.
I informed the parents of Peyton Gripp that through our Bloodletting game we had raised $65 for her treatment.
Today I surprised our commander with two gigantic tires for our Special Ops PT.
Read more about her and the fundraising we are doing at http://www.bloodletting.org/admin/donations.php
Next week most of my good deeds will be in the form of FreeRice.org and emailing fellow troops over seas. I'll be TDY for the week so won't be able to get out and do as much as I usually do.
I'm on week three of a 100 pushup program. At the end of six weeks I will be pumping out 100 straight pushups at a time. I also started a 200 situps program, 200 squats, and 25 pullups. The last one I fear will be the hardest to accomplish. Start a simple work out program and email me the results.
My business partner, and someone I am proud to call a friend, Matt Reyes secured our plane tickets to NYC for the Bloodletting Meet/ComicCon! Woo hoo drunkfest 2010 here we come!
Because I loves me da boobies soooo much!
Funny t-shirt I like...
