Next week!
I plan to go up to Deam Wilderness for a few days, hike into Lake Monroe's less used areas, and fish fro bluegill and perhaps crappie. Maybe even a little bit of turtleing.
I need to get out of town for a while. I was raised in a rural environment, and lived as much as possible in smaller towns or semi-rural areas. Now I live in the 16th largest Metro area in the US, and that's not counting the communities on the norther bank of the river! You can drive for hours and not get out of town. It's awful: very noisy, very poor air quality (terrain and weather induced) crowded etc.
So with any luck at all, I will spend some time in the woods, eating easy yet tasteless meals that can be cooked on a single burner stove. Drinking coffee and Gatorade, and maybe even catching fish!
I can hardly wait!

This Week In Holy Crimes
Over the last seven days...
Minnesota: Rev. Donald Dean Budd convicted of two counts of felony sexual misconduct.
Utah: Pastor William J. Blanscet charged with exposing himself over a webcam to who he thought was a 13 year-old girl.
Pennsylvania: Pastor Guy Carlton Jones sentenced to three years in state prison for attempted sexual conduct with an 8 year-old girl. Bonus: Jones was convicted of raping an 8 year-old girl in 1991.
California: The Catholic Diocese of Monterey agrees to pay man $1.2M for years of sexual assaults by two priests. The diocese never reported the assaults to the police and the priests went on to abuse others, including the plaintiff's brother.
Idaho: Pastor Reuben Elmer Floyd Jr. sentenced to 10-25 years in prison for child molestation.
North Carolina: Pastor Tommy Wheeler charged with multiple felony sex offenses for molestation of 15 year-old girl.
Louisiana: Youth pastor Jeremy Little sentenced to 24 years in prison for drugging and molesting young boys.
Kentucky: Pastor Richard Wilson Bridges charged with stealing $50,000 from his church.
South Africa: Pastor Muzi Kunene convicted of murdering his real estate agent. Bonus: His church says he will "remain an inspiration." Extra bonus: Kunene founded Christians For Truth, an anti-abortion lobby group.
This week's winner:
New York: Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio of the Brooklyn Catholic Diocese is blackmailing lawmakers who attempt to extend the statute of limitations on child molestation, telling a gathering of legislators (according to one Assembly member who was present), "If it passes, we will close a parish in each of your districts and we will tell your constituents that it was your fault." Extending the time limit allowed to report attacks is predicted to cost the Catholic Church hundreds of millions in judgments in New York state. The Child Victims Act will likely be voted on before the close of the current session at the end of June.
Anon--
Are you actually posting things designed to make a specific religious group look bad? After all, your recent posts look like a screed against Theists!
As I recall from sociology and religious phenomenology, Atheism is in essence a religious opinion.
So are you engaging in religious bigotry directed against those who have a differing religious opinion?
Gosh Anon--you sound a lot like a bigot visiting an opposing blog to try and offend people.
I'm quite jealous, that sounds nice. Camping & Fishing are two of my favorite things! Your blog is enjoyable as always. Wanted to thank you for the info on what the GLBTQ's are up to. sickening.
ANON:
We already know that people are molesters/rapists whether they profess to be followers of Christ or not. This should not stop people from following Christ, who was not a child molester/rapist/abortionist. ANYONE can profess to believe whatever they want and do the exact opposite. It is unfortunate they use such outlets as the ministry of Christ to do their dark deeds.
