Age waits for no one, neither does Hell.

 Thanks, Rob, for the very nice bottle of Chardonnay... and the mask.

On my 72nd birthday I feel
a bit of a devil!

Okay, I think I get the message... I'm going to Hell.

Actually, it's quite a big message to tell someone that they're going to Hell (if that is Rob's intention).

Should I feel worried?

Should I be concerned?

After all, the 'sentence' is for eternity - a very, very, very long time.

I guess it all depends on Catholics being correct about their predictions.

Catholics seem to know that they are right in their thinking, but the rest of us might not agree.

Okay, it's an interesting scenario - an all-loving god makes a lot of humans.

He kicks off with a man and a woman.

Then a 'devil', disguised as a talking snake, sort of mucks it all up.

As a consequence, all humans are burdened with a package called Original Sin.

Suddenly, you have to love this god or you'll be tormented for eternity.

But, what if it's all bullshit?

I almost can't wait to die and find out!

Hey, there could be a lot of very disappointed Catholics, including the ones who fucked up the lives of many people AND CHILDREN.

As I get old, I'm looking forward with interest.

Tra il dire e il fare c'e` di mezzo il mare.

Your birthday present to Robert should have been to go around and teach him about blog settings.

Yes, I haven't been able to comment.

Yes, this might be the end of the internet as we know it ... or just another First World problem.
If there really is a god and his son Jesus was IT savvy then you'd think that they could fix it for Robert. Maybe they don't like his singing in church.

I re-read some of my older posts when searching for a link I wanted ti insert in a new one.
When I read the comments many didn't make much sense because they were responses to comments that Robert had made (under his many blog names) and, as he recently deleted his blog history the comments on others' posts also disappeared. Hey! It's not like precious manuscripts being burnt by crazy Catholics, Communists and Nazis throughout history but it's a shame that context is lost.

By the way, that devil mask suits you.

I see a cup far away.

Politeness isn’t a gift you received with your increased age I see.

Nope.

But at least I can keep my blog going.

THE CURMUDGEON ha detto...

Scratched, dented, blowing smoke out the rear, no W.O.F. or registration and uninsurable but yes - it's still going only having been deregistered and off the road twice before.

At least I look after my outside furniture and don't cause trouble on Christchurch buses.
