Yeah, yeah, I know it must have cost her a fortune, but it was worth it!

These words should be remembered not as dirty words that one shall not say on TV but words that must be remembered as words that represent free speech and that which the FCC has taken away. And as for the man that said them George Carlin, he is most likely yelling them in heaven if it is as stuffy as people seem to think it should be. Rest well old solider of freedom, rest well.

RIP, Mr. Carlin. We’ve come a long way since you were arrested (over and over again) for exercising your free speech and using those words in your act. Now people just get fined hundreds of thousands of dollars. I guess free speech isn’t free, after all. It’s very, very, expensive.

Alright, so because gays won the right to marry the world is going to end (when the Large Hadron Collider is turned on). But what does it mean to get married?
A 50% chance that you will lose 50% of your stuff (unless you get your prenups done right).
Some people insist that marriage is founded in the “good book;” but why not take a closer look at what the bible says — like the parts about forcing one’s daughter to marry some guy who killed your enemies. Sounds like a great idea! I will give my daughter to the first girl to get Hillary to finally give up.
So what is marriage besides being a reward for a favor?
Making sure your fuck spawn is really your fuck spawn.
Marriage comes from the same holier-than-thou mentality that demands you save yourself for your wedding night. It’s designed to ensure that your first-born boy (and only boys really matter) gets all your stuff. Thanks to the “sanctity” of marriage you “know” the woman you knocked up is holding “your” kid (but people forget that the size of human testicles are a direct result of our tendency to cheat [more info about that under cut- because it goes way off topic but is fun to read I promise]).
People seem to have this evil idea that:
Woman + Man= OK
Man + Man = FUCKING END OF THE WORLD (quickly turn on the Large Hadron Collider)
Man + Dog = apparently alright according to bible thumper logic
And leaving the best for last-
Woman + Woman = every guy’s dream / an accurate description of my love life (don’t ask- I’m just very, very lucky!)
Truthfully, marriage is about rights — originally the succession of property rights, but now legal rights as well. For example, if a gay person is hospitalized, as things stand currently, their life partner would not have the right to visit them, much less have any say about their care.
Some insist that civil unions are the same thing by a different name, but gays who have suffered from lack of legal standing know better, and the courts in California finally recognized that and corrected it.
In summation (never thought I would use that once I left high school), marriage is not the sanctimonious romantic ideal that our society represents it to be. Listen up, you people who have been vigorously thumping those bibles, please, please, please, wake the [tirade of expletives that even I refrain from putting on the web] up! Two same-sex people getting married are not going to “ruin marriage” — Britney Spears already beat those “damn dirty gays” to that.
So if any gay couple wants to have a nice wedding, go for it; just don’t let me catch the garter (or bouquet, for that matter) — I tend to be bad luck when I do.

Or May Day which ever you like. So hopeful you can dance around the May Pole (or what ever you want to call it or dance around) and enjoy The Great Rite. Also because he wrote Still Alive, you should check out Jonathan Coulton’s website and maybe head over to the First of May Song (because we all like fucking outside). So get the free mp3 while you can.

Dance Dance Revolution: Jefferson Mix
Alright, say that one of your favorite founding fathers was having a birthday — a person that is considered by Libertarians to be one of the greatest men to have ever held office (dare I say, even better than Ron Paul [yes I mentioned him {and FYI I voted for him} ] so leave us alone about not including him!).
Now for those disadvantaged students that studied American history in an American school, let me introduce you to one of my favorite presidents, second in my esteem only to Roosevelt — Teddy, not commie — Tomas Jefferson.
Let me list a few of the reasons Jefferson was great:
1) He was the 2nd Vice President of the United States and the 3rd President of the United States (third time’s the charm).
2) He was responsible for the Louisiana Purchase, which doubled the size of America at the time).
3) He considered much of the New Testament of the Bible to be lies, and was deeply suspicious of Catholic priests and bishops, feeling they were a reactionary force promoting ignorance (man after my own heart).
4) He wrote the Declaration of Independence, including the statement “that all men are created equal.” You know, that may even include gays, blacks, pagans, and women. Just a thought.
5) He said:
“I hold it, that a little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical… God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty… What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance?”
(One of my favorite quotes.)
Again, a man after my own heart; bring out the pitch forks!
To celebrate this great patriot’s birthday, you might say to yourself, “why not throw a party at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington D.C.?”
The place is open 24/7, or so the website says. So this is exactly what a group of 20 people decided to do — even though “the cake is a lie” — to “party hard” by dancing to music they were playing (silently, using head phones) on their mp3 players.
So — they came, they partied, they left — right?
Right?
Not really. Enter the swine, in the form of a park officer who arrested one of the dancers. You might think there must have been some legitimate reason for the arrest. You know, like fighting back, or even just being belligerent to the officer.
No.
Then what?
The heinous crime was simply asking why the group was being asked to leave.
For this unforgivable sin, one patriotic partier was actually arrested and held for several hours before finally being released.
Don’t just take my word for it — I had a hard time believing it myself. Check out the youtube videos under the cut.

Alright people, Obama scored a 37 out of 300 bowling.
BOWLING!
How the FUCK does this at all matter to the election?
No, tell me. Really.
Hell, he can beat me in a game of bowling; unless it’s on the Wii, then I can get a 40! W00t!
This just shows you how asinine this election has gotten. I mean, how many delegates would Obama have gotten if he bowled a 300? My guess is, one Spartan.
So again, does this matter when “Delegates Decide the Democratic Candidate: Your Vote Does Not Matter ‘08?” Well, it does matter, because once again it’s coming back to the race issue!
MSNBC political analyst Howard Fineman decided to tell America on Hardball, “he should have stuck to shooting hoops.” So I wonder, what would he have said if Mrs. Clinton had scored a 37? “She should have stuck to stitching quilts?” Or McCain? “He should have stuck to shouting at kids on the lawn like other grandfathers?” Or Ron Paul (because if I don’t mention him other bloggers will get mad at us)? “He should have stuck to shouting at kids on the lawn — about the Constitution?”
So this little issue of only scoring 37 pins, 37! Has nothing, NOTHING to do with the election (except, of course, that more underlying racial tension comes to light). This is just as bad as hearing about Britney Spears’ latest crisis. Why don’t we just get this election over with; after all, don’t you know that line 37 on page 666 of the Patriot Act says that Bush automatically gets a 3rd term?
But then, even that might not happen if the Large Hadron Collider kills us all (more about that later).

While surfing around the local TV networks, I happened to stumble upon a show that depicts characters that if my children (if I had any) emulated their behavior, would cause a destructive downward spiral in their life. This dreadful show depicts people with no redeeming factors becoming famous after being dreadfully cut down by those they wish to impress at all odds. It shows that by being good at one very limited thing you can become a “great” person, adored by millions. What needs to be taught is that one needs to strive for knowledge, and to help others, instead of being some golden calf worshiped by America. I would rather children learn that knowledge and helping others will help them to move forward in life.
For example, look at Dexter Morgan from the show appropriately titled Dexter, that I recently caught on CBS. Dexter is a forensic scientist who works in Miami Florida as a blood spatter expert, helping the police catch murders. He follows his own personal code in doing his work — catching the villains of Miami and bringing them to proper justice.
So compared to Dexter, American Idol is worthless filth that fills childrens’ minds with unrealistic expectations that they can slack off, learn nothing, and still become rich and famous. Thusly I demand that people and advertising sponsors boycott this vile show to protect our children from its harmful influence.
I’m looking at you Parents Television Council! Go out and demand it! Because after all, who is a better influence — a vapid air head who teaches kids to give up their life for the falsity of fame, or a serial killer who kills other serial killers to help the world around them and make it a better place? I’d take the latter.

This was a triumph!
I’m making a post here:
“HUGE SUCCESS!!”
It’s hard to overstate
our satisfaction.
The Crone Cast:
We say what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones brain dead.
But don’t bother e-mailing
over a spelling mistake.
You must keep on reading
knowledge to partake.
And the website is done
and this should be fun
for those who know we
went live.
Alright it took long enough to get done but the new CroneSeraphim is back in a different form, for those who miss the old site go to cronecosplay.com and deal with it. But for those who want to learn about Politics from a Pagan prospective, book mark, rss, and get ready for some pod casting.
