The Hippie Weirdo Yoga Farmer

Ode To A Peanut Farmer
2009-01-06 21:17:00 I realize that ridiculing Glenn Beck, regardless of what corporate media outlet he shills for, is not unlike poking a stick at the village idiot, but I must point out the following anyway from Think Progress here?On his radio show (yesterday), conservative talker Glenn Beck responded to the current violence in Gaza by arguing that former President Jimmy Carter should be stripped of his Nobel Peace Prize:BECK: Can someone please retract the Jimmy Carter Nobel Peace Prize? Can someone please say, ?You know what Jim, we gotta take that back. I don?t know what we were thinking, but there hasn?t been all that much peace there.? ? Eh, I don?t think you get the prize for the peace when the peace didn?t really happen. ? Can we take his peace prize back from him?First, I don?t know how Carter is supposed to be blamed, seeing as how he didn?t call for the Palestinian elections two years ago that installed Hamas and gave them the legitimacy they don?t deserve (as noted here). The responsibilit...

2008-09-02 02:20:00 The last time I was at my parents house I snagged my mom's latest copy of Real Simple. I saw this quick (and really good looking!) recipe for Golden Gazpacho with Feta.

He asked the Australian farmer, "And what are those?"The Australian farmer replied with an incredulous look, "Don't you have any grasshoppers in Texas, mate?"

"Are you a Christian?"With the same amount of interest as his previous answer the farmer said, "Nope my name is Jones. You must be lookin' for Jim Christian. He lives a mile south of here."The young determined preacher tried again asking the farmer, "Are you lost?""Naw! I've lived here all my life," answered the farmer."Are you prepared for the resurrection?" the frustrated preacher asked.This caught the farmer's attention and he asked, "When is it gonna be?"Thinking he had accomplished something the young preacher replied, "It could be today, tomorrow, or the next day."Taking a handkerchief from his back pocket and wi...
