Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.


Time Well Spent

Anytime I start to think that I mis-spend my personal time by playing games, watching tv, or finding games like “Slingshot Santa,” I can return time and time again to this site and think, “at least I’m not still trying to contest the 2000 election and put Al Gore back in the Presidency.”

The time has come for the American people to stand up for our constitution and right the injustices that led to four years of illegitimate rule in our country at the expense of all we have worked so hard for as a people all these years to achieve, which now threaten us again as 51% of Americans that voted (according to the DIEBOLD results) have decided that four years of torture wasn’t enough. We at Patriots for Al Gore however, denounce the results of the 2004 Presidential election without investigation into electronic voting anomalies, denounce any talk of a Bush mandate, and refuse to any longer submit to a status quo that enslaves the soul and stifles the voice.

What are the chances that they will succeed in making Al Gore the president 4 years ago? I’m thinking what a waste of time not a chance, but hey, if that’s the way you want to spend your time, have fun. Sheesh.

  13. Isn’t that cheating? Isn’t that the very definition of cheating? Or were you being so obvious so you would be caught? Is that a cry for help then?

  14. No, actually, I planned to refund the question I wasted. It’s not cheating if you planned on being caught. I figured this would be a good way to speed up the game, and no it isn’t a cry for help. There just wasn’t a lot of questions being asked. 15 Questions left.

  15. Didn’t I just ask 4 questions in a row? Wouldn’t that be 10 questions left then? Or only 7 left if you count this one?

  16. Actually, I was being refunding the one I spent, and then I decided it wouldn’t be fair to charge all of those questions considering my previous “trickery” led to them. However, if you want me to count them… 7 Questions left.

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
