I’m a big fan of Dave Grohl and his Foo Fighters. Massively irrelevant I concede that. Hey, I’ve got to start somewhere .
Today is Maundy Thursday. Actually, today seems just like any other Thursday. Same crap continues ad nauseum Planet wide and, not much changes. Possibly Obama’s next victims change. You know, victims move from a ‘to get killed list’ to the ‘oh yeah we got them list’.
Team Obama would give Franz Kafka the cold shudders. Probably though, Kafka is laughing his arse off from wherever it is that Kafka ended up. Chortling hysterically and elbowing George Orwell. “We did try to tell them…”
Yes they did try. Amerika’s Founding Fathers tried. Benny Franklin maintained that “we’ve given you a Republic IF you can keep it.”
The sadly dysfunctional Amerikan sheeple couldn’t keep it. Civically lazy Amerikans from coast to coast, distracted by flashy lighting and BradJolenaBeeper disease, look up rarely to catch a glimpse of the inevitable.
The collapse of Amerikan Empire has begun in earnest.
All my life I’ve been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I’m getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it’s taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
The feeling comes to life when I see your ghost
Yeah, I do love the Grohl. Those are Grohl lyrics.
All my life I’ve been searching for, answers. To the really serious and large questions about life, the universe, and everything. We all know what the answer to the question is. 42. Don’t understand the question and that’s the tricky part.
As you might be able to tell, I’m rambling. Filling space with blah blah blah. It is Maundy Thursday after all. Something about betrayal, torture, and summary execution seems to just fit nicely in with the day’s motif.
Which and by the by, Pontius Pilate offered to release Jesus from his custody. You see, Jesus had pissed off the upper crust and ruling class Jewry and upper crust and ruling class Jewry wanted Jesus’ head on a pike. However, Pilate had some suspicions about the real motives of uppity Jewry and Pilate had a touch of conscience and tried to avoid the nasty business of Roman style crucifixion of an innocent man. Even Pilate knew Jesus made the Jews nervous. Anyway and a long ‘gospel’ narrative shortened a bit, Pilate offers Jesus to the Jews and the Jews cry out for Barrabas the thief.
Doesn’t that just figure? Jews want the Romans to kill their Messiah and pick a thief as scapegoat. There is of course, something seriously wrong with the biblical rendering of Jews and today’s rendering of Zionistas. Most all the rendering has deep spiritual connection to bloodletting. Yikes…
Maundy Thursday. So there you go. Here’s a little darkened visigothery that makes a perfect posting for a darkened Maundy Thursday the 28th day of March 2013 -
