Deviled Pig – A Restaurant Review

December 1, 2018 B. John 825 Views 0 Comments South Tampa, Barbecue, BBQ

The Deviled Pig opened within the past few months at 3307 S Dale Mabry Hwy, Tampa, FL 33629. I was getting good comments on a neighborhood message, and over 4.5 stars on Yelp. It does turn out it didn’t rate quite that high once Yelp realized that there were a sizeable number of recently created accounts that one review giving the location 5 stars (guess who that restaurant was). However, once that was cleaned out, it still had decent reviews, so we decided to try it last night (Friday) early.

With all the votes now being counted, Rick Scott is seeing his lead slipping away in his race for U.S. Senate, and so, as any good Republican would do, he sued to try to keep from counting all the votes. Scott has apparently ordered the FDLE to investigate the Broward County Elections Office mostly because they are now counting all the ballots.

Wesley Covenant Association Proceeds with Plans for New Denomination

November 7, 2018November 7, 2018 B. John 5680 Views 3 Comments UMC, United Methodist Church, Weslyan Convenant Association, WCA, IRD, John Wesley, Schism

As a group takes up the name of Wesley to promote schism within the UMC, John Wesley had this to about schism, ““[Schism] is evil in itself. To separate ourselves from a body of living Christians, with whom we were before united, is a grievous breach of the law of love. Note that the damage in schism is not to a structure, but to the character of holiness in those who participate in it.”

Rick Wiles Tries to Out-Crazy Lance Wallnau

As I posted Yesterday, “Pastor” Lance Wallnau was saying Trump should, like other dictators, be able to kill his opponents. Well, I guess “Pastor” Rike Wiles didn’t like Wallnau getting all the attention, so he’s now claiming that Democrats will “slaughter” tens of thousands of Christians if they win the midterm elections.

Entitled Tampans And Tampa Airport

I don’t know if some people just don’t think, or feel entitled in some extreme sort of royalty-like way. I recently came across a Facebook Group for people who are complaining about the sound of airplanes landing at Tampa International Airport, despite having bought homes they knew to be right under the primary approach path. Go figure.

Frightening Christians In the Trump Regime

This one will scare the crap out of you. Krazy Kristian Kook, Lance Wallanau, slipped up and gave us a glimpse behind the curtain in a YouTube where he openly wished that Trump could give his Democratic critics the same treatment that dissidents get in Vladimir Putin’s Russia. As Thomas Jefferson said, “In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.”

All-in-all, as I said, it was a good movie with some disappointments. I accept it was a movie and not a mini-series, so I understand much was left out, but it does leave me wanting for more, and I hope someday, in the not too distant future, a more complete mini-series about Armstrong will be done.

Melania Trump’s Spokesperson-Stephanie Grisham: Douche Bag of The Day

November 3, 2018 B. John 4366 Views 0 Comments Cairo, Egypt, Semiramis Intercontinental Hotel, Quartz News, The Hill, Stephanie Grishman, Melania Trump

This entry is part 49 of 54 in the series Daily Douche-Bag

Last month Melania Trump visited Egypt. Quartz News, based on federal records, report that Melania and her entourage spent a night there and amassed a bill of $95,000.00 (for a one night stay). Ms. Grisham is all upset, not because of the amount taxpayers had to spend, but the fact that the news source was wrong…they were at the hotel for only six hours.
