Jesus loves you, and shares
Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.
I think you have it wrong Redog. Isn't Jesus supposed to love all of us, he just doesn't love what we do? Don't we all fit into that category. I would even say he loves you too, but maybe not your judgmental attitude, and I know, that's something I'm also guilty of sometimes. You might need to re-align yourself with the teachings of the New Testament If you want to speak for Christ, and be careful as to not let the neo-rightwing spinsters manipulate your thinking.

I like "Four things you need to know to be a plumber" better
1. Hot's on the left.
2. Cold's on the right.
3. Shit runs downhill.
4. Payday's on Friday.
Hey, Les, why don't we just call each other assholes and get it over with. - Somebody on the old Southknoxbubba.net (if that was you, claim your quote and win net.fame!)
Four things you need to know
Four things you need to know to be a plumber
The downhill part confuses me sometimes, but I can pass the crack test, ...so do I qualify as a plumber?
Adrift in the Sea of Humility
There is also a difference
There is also a difference between a plumber and a pipefitter; a plumber will not bite his nails.
