It ain't the years, It's the mileage. I was raised a military brat, and wanderlust still comes over me every 3 or 4 years. Still love to travel.

Intolerance is a Disease

...A disease of ignorance.

Those that know me, know that I can generally be a very tolerant person. The two things that really get my goat (okay, so there are more than two).

But today's goat getters are Ignorance and Intolerance.
Ignorance DefinedIntolerance defined

And in some cases they are related. That's when it really gets to me. It can put me into a rage. There's a guy here who every Tuesday, stands on the corner of McKinney and Smith in downtown Houston with I presume either his, wife, or daughter videotaping the entire time he's standing there with a sign that makes his ignorance and intolerant beliefs known to all. Now most of the time I can manage to let this kind of stuff go. Bless this moron for he is a foolBut after watching this (Christian, I presume) religous zealot stand on this corner almost every Tuesday for the better part of 4 years. I presume this fool has to get a permit from the city to stand on this corner and I know that under the First Amendment, they have to give him one.


But enough already!
