Have you got your Bible yet?

This has to be the best grift ever! This is even better than Oral Roberts prayer cloths. For just $59.99, you can own your very own "God Save-the USA" Bible, that has been endorsed by Donald Trump, with a foreword by Lee Greenwood.

Now, if he can only sell a million of those Bibles (allow 4-6 weeks for delivery), he would almost have enough money to cover his bail.

This is beyond embarrassment.

For true Christians, it must hold some blasphemous value?

Are some of the pages in your Bibles sticking together? No worries, this is very common with new Bibles that have gold gilding around the edges of the paper. For your convenience, we have provided links to a Youtube video that does a wonderful job of explaining how to break your new Bible in.

Copies of various Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant Bibles that vary. Along with various Jewish and Christian Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, Dead Sea Scroll translations and commentary books. Also, in addition, various Morman, Jewish, Islamic and Christian Sect books. Some date over a century.

I also have some that have been written in two languages, side by side.

None of them ever required me to spend more than $30 dollars. But as the Good Book says, a fool an their money...

Your bull shit phony ass patriotism supporting ending the country is a God Damned Joke. You and Trump need to be exiled to hell.

When I was still playing I did summer band gigs. Hot and sticky and the pay was small but I was with my friends and it was fun BUT we always had to play that song. ALWAYS, it seemed to be beloved by the audience.

Glad we never played the USA song.

I don't think that was ever scored for a concert band thank the lord! I would bet if I cared I could probably find it somewhere but I will be happy to let that little ditty go back into my lost roller skating memories.

21. 3 chords zero lyrics
Wed Mar 27, 2024, 11:38 AM

Just a half ass drummer and the neighborhood will rush to your garage on practice night. Second song “Louie Louie” 3 chords and NOBODY knows the damn lyrics. Just mumble with the 3 chords. When ya get good at that and can learn Free Bird, you are a County wide Rock star. Guess if we learned “God Bless The USA” when we played the Jimmy Kilgor Show on local TV, we coulda made RR Hall of Fame.
The good days. When Music was simple and lyrics were lots of Love, Baby and yea yea yea.

yea yea yea yea now we gotta go. Like that? *snort* LOVE all that.

There is an orchestral version of Free Bird out now for clarinet. If you want to hear other versions that are not simple and actually quite cool go to Youtube and look up Robert Spring Free Bird. My friend that I mentioned above sat in the orchestra next to me and he practiced this for a long time before performing it. It is cool and obnoxious at the same time and puts to death the need of lyrics, lol. Sadly my friend passed away but this was the last thing that I remember that he was playing around.

I miss it all since I got sick and had to retire but the memories, oh so many and so much fun making them and playing them. Simple music with simple lyrics are just as important as any other kind.

I have lost track of what this started so I will stop now. Just old lady memories of the times that were the best of life.

Happy spring and never stop rockin’, and not just in a porch chair. Three chords made me a star.
But now with memory issues, lyics are hard to stick.
And complicated story telling lyrics.

Memory issues get us all in the end I think. It sucks but we once had what many have not had.

Stop rockin'? What? Never, and 3 chords are plenty, mumbled lyrics have often been a thing so go on with yourself and enjoy the rest of what we have left.

plenty of 'face' cards he can smear with AI versions of his ugly, and titles like king, prince, etc. And a whole suit of discs/coins - he can go nuts! Guns would make great wands suit.
Definitely 'The Fool' has potential.

Bible which he has never picked up to read for comfort but uses it as a tool to fool stupid people.

I did 12 years hard time catholic school. Everyday passages were read to us that I surprisingly remember to this day. He has NEVER lived, talked or experienced the teachings of the Bible.
