The big story in the news today features a friendly neighborhood pastor out of Gainesville, Florida who intends to burn copies of the Koran from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on September 11, 2010. He has deemed the day “International Burn A Koran Day”. Thank you Reverend Terry Jones for representing Caucasian Americans on a world stage in a dim light of ignorance and persecution-style reasoning. Are your lynch mobs plotting within the walls of your church for the next big move? This man of God has also authored a book titled “Islam is of the Devil”. Check out his website at islamisofthedevil.com. Among many controversial, untoward views you can also order coffee mugs and t-shirts, which proclaim his message. Not only is this not what Jesus would do, but it is Reverend Terry Jones bullying religious freedom and being completely un-American by allowing his zealous pride to blind him from reason and the incomparable fairness America is supposed to flourish in. So thank you Terry Jones for taking matters into your own hands and representing all of America with your shallow attempt at some source of glory that I, and I can only hope most others, cannot understand.
Coincidentally, I was reading about this Terry Jones article on a CBS website and one of the top stories was about Mike Tyson. The headline was “I wish I had smoked weed with Tupac.” That’s refreshing front page news. In other news I am happy to see that the Democrats are falling further and further away heading into the November election. If reality resembles anything remotely close to the news and polls, which it rarely ever does, then pink slips will be flying in a breeze of monumental American history. I don’t know what the record is for voting out the most senators and representatives in one single election, but this election has the potential to shatter any sort of record that may exist.
Today’s run was a huge success. I broke through some kind of barrier that had been in front of me up until today. My breathing was calm and my legs did not ache. I ran 3.2 miles and I actually felt like I could have run a bit more.
2,062.9 miles to go.
