Christain Ponzi Schemes
I saw this Neatorama blog, on an Evangelical minister who advertises to send his ministry money and God will send you a windfall of money to get out of debt. It is amazing how these snake oil salesmans get away with this. It seems if you attach God to your scheme it is perfectly legal and acceptable. This shyster paid himself more than $1.5 million in 2007! So it seems to be pretty profitable, see the Charlotte Observer Article, for more disgusting details. If hell exists, please let this guy go there!

the next 400 years?
NPR posted this today Scenes, Sounds, Sonnets: The Next 400 Years. They invited readers to post comments on what they thought would be remembered in 400 years. It had to be about love. Here are so far some of my favorites.

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky,
but why, Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

Sarah McLachlan "I Will Remember You," is one that will bring me back to all those who have passed in my life. One was when a fellow classmate of mine passed away on Sadies night, our freshman year of High School. Someone so young and so special, taken away too soon. It's a song that relates to many things in our lives. This song is one to remember.
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah," is also a great and unforgettable song. It hits me everytime I hear it and is so powerful.
Maybe there is a god above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold.

The song Me and Bobby McGee - all the lyrics but especially "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose" and "I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one of yesterday, holding Bobby's body close to mine."
