People are Demanding ‘Non-PC’ Comments on Terrorism — So Here’s the Mother of Them All
Choose love!

I’m seeing a ton of vitriolic comments all over Facebook, Twitter and other social sites about how we need to “stop being PC” and really address the terrorist issue by “really talking about what’s happening” without “censoring ourselves” to make everybody else comfortable.
As a Christian Pastor, I tend to raise an eyebrow at this. Not because of the lack of PC-ness, but because of the repressed anger I’m seeing. Yet this lack of PC discourse seems to be what people need right now. So okay. If that’s what everyone thinks will help — I’ll go there. As a Christian Pastor, and as a white American female, I’ll dump my PC filter and say it like it is in an effort to help us all heal. That seems to be what everyone is calling for.
So here it is.
America, you’ve gone yellow.
You’ve gone from a dignified nation who…

Days of Ragnarok: End of the Gods by Tyler Woods
This book was a good story. I enjoyed the “adventure of a colossal “what if”. This book kept me reading on to find out what was going to happen next. The characters are in a shattered world and they must find a new way of being able to live and prosper. I enjoyed following along. * I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review* 4/5

Conversations with Larry Xenomorph by Jay Cole
This book’s cover threw me off a bit. I saw it and thought what in the world could this book be about.

What is Love?
Originally posted on Poems:
What is love, I ask the sky for the umpteenth time,
though it remained steeped in a silence, incessant,
as it has always been, like the clouds and the night,
no thunders cracked or roared upon the Himavant!
I turned back to life on earth, countless and counting,
to hurl the spear at its face and find the real truth,
to have the why, what, how and who of love being seen,
either in the madding crowd or in solitude!
In the end I stared back at the mirror to face
my reflection and looked straight into its fierce eyes,
I could see a vicious fire with licking flames
with petty values restrained by sour walls, inside!
Could the image, I wondered, tell me what I sought,
so it did, wondrously well and said, ‘Love is God!’

Pure Blood by Caitlin Kittredge
This book was good. I liked the mystery in the book and I like the Werewolf detective, Luna, I have not read anything else by this author. I was trying a new one. I think I would try another book from Caitlin. I think this book had some good mystery. Luna found out who she can trust in this book. 4/5
