What You Might Have Missed In June
June went by fast, with a blink and you’ll miss it quickness. I’m not even entirely sure what all happened this month. I turned 47 earlier this month and that already feels like ages ago and no time at all. The best I can say about turning 47 is that it puts me closer to retirement age and that’s always a good thing. Only 20 more years of being a working stiff and then, hopefully, I can finally pu

“The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.”
―

“How dismal it is to see present day Americans yearning for the very orthodoxy that their country was founded to escape.”

“Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!”

“Here's a quick rule of thumb: Don't annoy science fiction writers. These are people who destroy entire planets before lunch. Think of what they'll do to you.”

“Here's what vampires shouldn't be: pallid detectives that drink Bloody Marys and work only at night; lovelorn southern gentlemen; anorexic teenage girls; boy-toys with big dewy eyes. What should they be? Killers, honey. Stone killers that can't get enough of that tasty Type-A. Bad boys and girls. Hunters. In other words, Midnight America. Red, white and blue, accent on the red. Those vamps got hijacked by a lot of soft-focus romance.
