In Search of Dinner

Who here knows where I could get good chili in the vicinity of Long Beach? Like “in a bread bowl made with hunks of meat” kind of chili, not the “goo-like goodness on your burger” chili. Okay, even Lakewood, Los Alamitos, or Seal Beach? Huntington Beach? South bay? Help? In the meantime, at the suggestion of ‘Mazing Amy, I’m going over to Vons to get one of their Signature Soups. Wait a sec…THEY HAVE STOMPIN’ STEAKHOUSE CHILI!!!!!! Thank you Buddha, Jesus, and Vishnu! Woot! *UPDATE* Damn good chili. Perhaps my search for chili in the area may have ended there...

God v.s. Satan

A heated conversation at Brandon’s work fueled by one of the right-leaning Christian guy ended abruptly after Brandon brought up this point to ponder. Millions of people have died in the name of God. The Crusade. The Spanish taking over the Americas, killing the natives along the way. The witch hunt. The Nazis against the Jews. Etc. But no one ever dies in the name of Satan. Hmmm…...
