Did I spell those right? Maybe, I don’t know. I had a pretty good weekend I guess, not really odd, but it was okay. I felt that my Saturday was a waste, mostly due to the Plasma Giving and nap that I needed afterwards. I had things to do and really didn’t get any of it done. Sunday was good, Cousin Allyson joined me at church, kind of. I had my normal clerk stuff to do and she went and became invisible in the other meetings. She wasn’t approached with a ‘hello’ by anyone. Once. Kinda sad actually.

Today has been a pretty good day. Work wasn’t terribly busy, Institute was a great lesson, and then I went and had a J Dawg/Smart Cookie lunch with Priscilla and that was very nice. School seems to be quite a heavy load for her.. poor girl! She has a big semester but will turn out A OK .

And tonight… PRISON BREAK! Wahoo! It’s back, and, thanks to the HD Antenna I hooked up to the Plasma TV on the wall downstairs I’ll catch it in 1080 glory. Oh yeah! Gotta love it!!

I just added a new picture to my photoblog and thought to update this as well, and… well so I have!! I think it’s time to head home again. Cya!

So I went with Josh this morning to go donate plasma down on Center Street in Provo, he goes all the time and wanted me to go with him, so I obliged. I got there at 10:15, and, since I was new it should take ’2-3 hours’ before I’m done. Okay, no worries. They were just starting Disc One of The Office Season 3 so at least I had some favorable entertainment. Five hours worth.

I didn’t get my first ‘consultation’ for almost an hour, and it just got worse from there. SO much waiting. Five hours later I was $30 ‘richer’ and out the door. Kinda frustrating. It wasn’t the worst thing in the world, I really didn’t have anything else to do this morning but… five hours?

No, that’s not at all what I believe, but it was said to me tonight.

I like news, I like that news now comes with comments. However, checking the news on digg.com can be …. quite distracting. Most of the people that comment on articles and submissions are terribly, terribly liberal. So, while it’s fun to read the articles, I try to avert my eyes from the comments so as not to get caught into the mindset of distraction.

Well, I couldn’t help it today. There was a good article submitted with lots of cool, emotional pictures from 9/11. You bring up 9/11, you bring up the War on Terror, in Iraq (notice how I phrased that). You bring up the War on Terror, in Iraq, and you bring up lots of slimy, worthless comments from left-thinking fairies. Well, I had to speak my mind. Here is what I wrote, not directed to anyone, but just a comment.

9/11, the whole tragedy of it, is NOT being exploited for a useless war. What will it take for you to realize that Iraq is just a BATTLEFIELD in a war that WILL NOT END if we pack up and leave. Iraq is like Normandy, Iwo Jima… a place to battle. MUCH better than in our cities, towns, on the streets. Terrorists are VERY REAL and hate Freedom more than we can comprehend, leaving Iraq won’t make them go away.

God Bless President Bush and his never ending resolve to beat the shit out of evil.

Go ahead. Bury me. I spoke my peace.

That was it, it made me feel better, I was able to leave the comment board finally and move on. But, I left the page open so I could refresh it later and see how I was attacked. So far, I’ve had 3 comments, 2 were negative. One just said ‘Die in a Fire’ so, we won’t really worry about that one. The 2nd one, though, really just makes me sit back and go wow. This thinking really is out there! The attitude that has destroyed countless civilizations and cultures is spreading rampant today, and it is scary. Here is what was replied to me:

I won’t bury you, but I will call you a scaredy cat. You have very little justification to live in such fear, so you must swallow an awful lot of bullshit hook, line, and sinker. The good news for you is that you’re not alone. This country is full of narcissists just like you who think someone really wants to blow them up–sorry, you’re not that important. 9/11 was sad, but the chaos disseminating from it on account of us has been a tragedy on a global scale, and the reputation of this great country has been chipped away for no tangible gain.

Your abstract use of “evil” reveals a lack of depth to your logic. There are people just as self-righteous as you on the other side of the world who would sincerely consider an American soldier in Iraq evil. You’re both missing the big picture. Evil cannot be defeated, because it’s not real. Sorry if all this offends you, but it I THINK (just an opinion, not a fact) your tunnel vision might be interfering with your full potential for happiness. Just be free, buddy. Your worrying doesn’t add up.

Firstly, I never said I lived in fear, or worry, or that I wasn’t happy. He just assumed that because I believe in Evil, I must obviously live in fear of it. And then he tells me that Evil cannot be defeated, because it’s not real. That floored me. I knew that there were people that had to believe in that satanic bullshit (pardon), but I’ve never heard anyone come out and say it so clearly.

So, I just wanted to put that on here, and post on my blog, with the Freedom of Speech that I enjoy, that I do not live in fear. I do not live in worry. I do not buy BS hook, line, and sinker. I do not have shallow logic. I do not suffer from Tunnel Vision.

I believe in the cause that the American Soldiers are fighting for, and, as I stated above, Iraq is a battlefield in the War on Terror; Iraq is not the war in and of itself. If we leave Iraq, and bring all the soldiers back home, then evil gets a victory, and sadly, the incarnate devils of Radical Islam will bring the war here.

I believe in God, I believe in Truth, and I get excited knowing that Good will prevail. The final score is known: Good wins. This gives me hope, lets me truly experience Freedom and Happiness. I’m thankful for what I know, and I’ll continue to live in Hope, Happines and High Spirits.

Once again, God Bless President Bush in his relentless pursuit to the defeat of evil.
