Presidential Prayer

My sister sent me a link to the Presidential Prayer Kids site. This site is hilarious. Yet another a site for religious nutjobs and their brainwashed kids.

Look at some of the shit they want kids to pray for:

So it is the perfect time to pray that President and Mrs. Bush will have a terrific time at their ranch ... and ask God to help them have fun!

or this:

Pray for America's new Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton. Ambassador Bolton started his job this week after a rough time with Senate confirmation hearings. President Bush appointed him while Congress was in recess this week -that's a way of bypassing the final approval from the Senate. The President said that Mr. Bolton had the approval of a majority of senators, so he felt it was good to allow him to get to work!

That last line about the President having the approval of a majority of the senators is the best. If that were the case, then why didn't that jackass Bolton get confirmed?

Shouldn't kids be praying that the President come clean with America about the War in Iraq or for the President to keep his promise to fire anyone who leaked a CIA operative's name to the press? Perhaps they should pray for the President to stop making such an ass of out of himself everytime he speaks.

These people need to stop drinking the Kool-Aid.

Vegoose...

Well it looks like I'm heading to Vegas for a long weekend of festivities in October. That's right, my buddies Mike, Nick and myself will be heading to Vegoose. For those of you that are out of the loop, Vegoose is a Bonnaroo event. It is all going down Halloween weekend October 28-31.

Las Vegas, now that's one hell of a venue for a festival: Drinking, Gambling, Strippers, & Rock 'N' Roll. That's one mighty fine cocktail.

The lineup for this festival is looking pretty solid as well. The short list includes the following:

They are even planning late night shows throughtout the weekend, so who knows how many other bad ass shows will be going on.

I just scooped up Nickel Creek's latest cd Why Should the Fire Die?. I highly recommend it. They never cease to amaze me. Go out and get it!

I ordered tickets to see John Butler Trio when they play at 9:30 Club September 29th. This dude rips up a 12 string and gives new life to the instrument. Get tickets while you can.
Well maybe I'm crazy
But laughing out loud will make it all it all alright
But maybe we're all a little crazy
And laughing out loud will make the pain pass by
