Morning Edition - 6/23/05

Mr. Telephone Man There’s Something Wrong With YOUR Line
Longtime ABA telephone technician and nemesis to yours truly, Scottie D., was terminated from his cushy position at the banking association giant last week. One insider said Scottie D. was terminated after years of abuse of company time. Another inside source said the termination occurred via telephone making it all the more shocking. Recently Scottie struggled with the illness of his dad and a curious condition that affected the size, shape and color of his nose – don’t ask! Sidebar: Sometimes we’re shoved into pursuing something new, different and life altering. All jokes aside, good luck SD.

Religion & Politics; Who Agrees?
Religion and politics are always subjects that stir different emotions in folks and will lead to discussions that are heated and sometimes endless – since there is no clear right or wrong in a religious or political discussion. That said, these discussions do help bring about viewpoints we don’t normally hear during our own worship services. Recently Catholicism was under the microscope and the issue of sexual abuse and priests was discussed. In addition, the debate as to the Catholic Church’s vilification of condom use was brought to light. All these issues stir different emotions in each of us, but I wanted to send a special thank you to Kris, DrkMn and a certain Anonymous for your insightful and candid views. Your thoughts help to make the blog a more interesting spot.

Please post your afternoon On Blast questions in the Comments area for this Morning Edition.

Keep passin’ the open windows…

Toy,

NO, SD suffered from Nostricalus Ridiculatis. A condition where you nose explodes and turns a bluish, red color. ...but seriously, I don't know what the condition was, hence the "curious" condition referene.

It's like that I guess...

No one falls (on their nose) and stays injured (or worsens) as time goes on. Come on now... WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON?!? Anyway, it's not important, just "ughy" to look at. :)

Well Winnie... that's literally this time! ...but seriously, we didn't get along, but I still don't like seeing folks get the boot when they have other responsibilities and stresses pending. He does have my best wishes... and everything else I left behind :)
