It's The Season For Soup

Been eating a lot of soup this month. It was extra money month, so I ended up getting more canned tomatoes than I normally do, and ended up making simple soup with them often. It's basically just a large can of stewed tomatoes, and 4 cups of frozen mixed veggies. No spice or herbs, just the basics. Generally I get 2 meals out of a pot of soup and they are a good sized feed. I enjoy it and it's a reminder of the old days when Mom would make the same thing when I was a child. It was the only thing she did not screw up cooking. When I was a kid, it was often Tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich at lunch time, while I watched the Flintstones. I've tried it in my adult years, but it just did not go down as well for some reason. Anyways, have a good one and keep smiling.

If you could become with one fictional character (book, show, or movie) who would it be? Lestat de Lioncourt from Interview with the Vampire for sure. But with a better outcome in his existence. I know he can be a complete twat at times, but I don't think there is a more cool character that will come to mind any time soon. A close second would be Doctor Who as played by Matt Smith (11th Doctor). He had style in spades, with a hint of being pansexual, but not a certainty of it. The energy of this incarnation was I think the best of all of them. But I'd still rather be Lestat.

Is your favorite attribute about yourself physical or non-physical? Non-physical. I am rather fond of my ability to think better than average. I hate to say it, but I think the average person these days has no idea how to correctly process and discern information. They just believe what ever is told them for the most part. As for problem solving, forget it for most people under 40 these days it seems. Yes some young folk are totally on the ball and can think properly, but most, not so much. It also seems that a lot of people in my generation have just stopped thinking and just go with whatever is fed them from the sources they prefer - be it complete bull shit and obviously fake as hell, or not. Thought is not important to the average person anymore. They rely on being told everything.

John, The Book of Revelation, and Mushrooms

Image
Where the book of Revelation of written has a lot to do with it's context it may seem. Definitely the reason why John was on this island had an influence in his vision of the future. It also echoes other parts of the bible. I'm here today to talk about the mushrooms on said island and the idea of spirituality and the magic mushroom. "John wrote the Book of Revelation while he was on the island of Patmos, an Aegean island where he was exiled due to anti-Christian persecution under the Roman emperor Domitian. This location is widely accepted among biblical historians and is significant in the context of the text." - Bible Probe Here is a blog post from the actual people who take care of this island and the fact that John may have eaten magic mushrooms. Now for the sake of this blog, I'm going to assume that he consumed the mushrooms. I'm also going to look at my own belief in the Christian Bible in a light that some Christians won't find in good taste at al...
