It means Ma is an idiot.

Thank you neighbourhood watch person.

Finally someone who appreciates my hard work and the weight of responsibility on my shoulders.

BTW, that's "MNW Leader".

I don't know if 'appreciate' is the right word, maybe the word 'fear' might be closer to it.

Why? Did you do something I should know about? Well?

I can't imagine why anyone would fear a NWL unless they're guilty of something.

Maybe you need to change your avatar to get more respect.

I don't earn respect. I demand it.

WTF, Crash? See, this is why you weren't name MNWL. You abuse your warning powers. tsk, tsk.

I would warn you in response but I refuse to sink to your level.

I do, however, wish that your case of male pattern baldness gets severely worse in the next few months.

I think I might be done with the high road...

There I was, just trying to protect the neighborhood, and suddenly Crash confronts me.

"HELP, HELP, HELP ME"! I cried. Next thing you know...




Crash.

Your ass is getting warned, mister.

It is impossible to hide your nutsack with a fig leaf.

The fig leaf is thick, heavy, and sturdy.

They can be woven together just in time to get kicked out of the garden.

Just because Mary had a taste for Roman...Centurian doesn't give us a right to call her a whore. Joseph a sucker? Sure. Jesus a bastard child primed from infancy to fulfill the will of The Sanhedrin bent on throwing off the yoke of Roman oppression? Of course. But whore? I think that's a little strong.

It was mock on hate (not an obvious one, I see); not my view on Mary.

Recently read some accounts of Jesus's conception and Mary's role in his life by various scholars and analysts. Lots of contradictions surrounding it and immaculate conception vs. Mary being humanly impregnated before meeting Joseph and marrying him for fear of the dishonor her pregnancy would bring to herself and her family. Also interesting is how some view Mary as the mother of God, while others don't.

Even the fig tree encounter and why Jesus cursed it is much analyzed with some believing he was irritated by it since he was hungry and it had no fruit; and thus he caused it to whither immediately out of anger/hatred for its barreness. While others believe he knew it was out of season, and cursed it only to make it whither the next day as a means by which to reinforce his followers' faith.

I'm not religious, but curious to understand what others believe and sometimes research a bit. I'm far from being well versed in any of it. But, I find the differences between the versions of Mark, Matthew, Luke, etc...and the various intepretations as interesting as the stories themselves.

In short, I don't know if God hated figs, if Jesus cursed the fig tree out of hunger or hate, or whether or not Mary initially feared being outcast as a whore when initially approached by Gabriel.

I like figs and I like the character of Mary.

Figs were persona non-grata because a serpent slithered in its bowes. It was the both the "tree of life" and the "tree of the knowledge of good and evil". It was also known as the "tree of wisdom" in the Koran.

Of course figs just suck unless they're growing in the fountain of youth. The fig provided very long life which gave one knowledge and wisdom.

The poorest people in anncient times were the ones who slit the figs to make them ripen but this was later.

I wonder how they learned to weave. Musta came from that Tree of Know. The good part.

With the swelled head you've gotten, you're looking a bit encephalic.

The only swollen head around here is that perpetually aroused one you keep between your legs. Just shut up and go squirt your hose or something.

Oh yawn me a river, fuckley. You've become boring in your old age. Go text somebody while you're driving, that's about the most exciting thing you do anymore, mudqueen.

Wow. I am deeply wounded. I'm not certain I can recover from such scathing criticism from Mock's withered, balding, card-carrying member of AARP.















Huh. All better!
