Who'da thunk it

Here are some items that i stumbled over and found interesting. They really were on a " Mission from God ". The Vatican, yesterday, blessed the cult movie The Blues Brothers. That's right, Jake, Elwood, and the Penguin are now on the official list of " Catholic Classics ". Some of the other movies on the list are ,The Ten Commandments, Jesus of Nazareth, Joan of Arc, and Its a Wonderful Life. I really don't see the fit but I'm delighted, Blues Brothers is one of my fav's. I have this vision of the Pope and a Cardinal sitting in a car, " it's 106 miles to Chicago, we have a full tank of gas, a half a pack of cigarettes, its dark , and were wearing sunglasses. " and the Pope says " Hit It " . Makes you wonder whats next on their list, Blazing Saddles ? Alvin Green is an unemployed black man from South Carolina. He lives with his 81 yr old father and reportedly owns neither a cell phone nor a computer. He was involuntarily discharged from the military after 13 years of service and is allegedly facing obscenity charges. However Alvins future is looking brighter than you might think. Last week Alvin won the democratic primary for the U S Senate seat with 59% of the vote. This November he might be Senator Green. Power to the people Alvin, "America what a country i coulda been somebody". On the darker side last night the state of Utah executed a convicted murder, by FIRING SQUAD. the only thing better would have been if it was carried out in downtown Salt Lake. Well that's it for now, busy weekend. Going to see our new granddaughter Khloe, then celebrating a B-day with another daughter ( who's apple didn't fall far from the tree ) then Camp Bubba.. see ya next week..Be safe,party hard, and try to keep up.........
