conjectural navel gazing; jesus in lint form

wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?

Pastor Bill has this to say about our need for foreign oil. It is a great reflection about the potentially idolatrous nature of national boundaries and protectionist economic policies.I actually think he is on to something good.It is a compelling way to think about stewardship of our resources.

In other economic news, the company where I work has Pepsi as a client. Since the company offers free beverages to its employees, it is compelled by some legality somewhere to offer only Pepsi products. Now, I am trying not to let my corporate loyalties get in the way. I am a great fan of Coke and its array of fine products. Fortunately, there is one product offered here that has been my corporate salvation. Doctor, doctor, give me the news!!!

Yeah, I know. It is foolish and, if it be known, I do drink the occasional Diet Pepsi. It is not a bad way to embalm myself before I die. It helps that it is the caffeine free variety. That way I know that I am getting nothing that will actually sustain me in any way. Yes, I know that there is water in the can, but my hope is that it is so polluted with phosphoris acid and potassium benzoate that it won't matter.

Y'all have a great afternoon.
