The Shrine of Unitas

Hey, silveradept? I did get your Christmas card. Thanks for thinking about me, guys. Hope you all are doing okay over there.

I think I heard tell that shenalia and ellixis are over in Germany at the moment. If so, you two stay safe, all right? And if this comes to blows against AAAA MOTHERLAND, good luck to the both of you.

I stumbled upon this bit of the United States Code while browsing Reddit:

18 USC § 2384 – Seditious Conspiracy

“If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.”

I don't know about you, but that "or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States" part sounds veeery familiar to me.

At long last, I've jumped into the technology pool's deep end and gotten a Samsung Superphonefromthefuturewithlasers S4. Hopefully, this thing will help me remember to post here more often.

How is everyone?

So, I took one of my pills, forgot that I had taken it, and took another one. Quite by accident, to be sure, but I'm supposed to take only one per day.

This should prove interesting.

If you want to hide from all the insanity being unleashed upon social media in the wake of the Zimmerman trial's not guilty verdict, take shelter in my blog. I have iced tea.

Edgar has a computer. He's keeping tabs on the situation for me. What's going on, Edgar?

First we get assholes blowing up the Boston Marathon. Then more assholes keep trying to send poisoned letters to various officials. And NOW a fertilizer plant has exploded in Texas, an event which has to have killed dozens of people.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON THIS WEEK?!

I don't know what those Atomic Scientist people are doing, but they'd better set their Doomsday Clock forward about three or four minutes. Kim Jong-Un has turned the Korean Peninsula into a tinderbox, and while I understand that he wants to look like less of a pushover to his people and his military, one false step by anyone over there could start something really, really bad.

How is everyone? I keep forgetting to update this thing.

...has gone to the Texans.

I'm going to need a new Ravens icon.

Habent Papa--a guy named Jorge (awesome name) has taken the stage name "Francis I" (lame name, but at least we can call him "Frank I") and become the mortal leader of all Catholics. He's from Argentina, which makes him the first pope elected from outside of Europe in over a millennium.

He seems to have a bit of a sense of humor.
