I Ain’t Sayin’ He’s a Blood Sucker

Now, I wouldn’t call a high ranking official of the state of Tennessee names, or anything, but if you watched the news last night you might have seen this story:
http://www.wsmv.com/
in which it is revealed that the Attorney General’s office is still saying that the execution of Greg Thompson, which had been scheduled for February 7th and then was stayed when a
federal judge thought that there was a chance that a man who says that he wrote every song on the radio and is a Klingon who can survive electrocution might not be mentally competent to be executed.


Now, everything that we at TCASK have heard indicates that Thompson’s execution is not going to happen, that the stay will hold. Attorney General Summers, who previously sought a conservator for Thompson because “(Thompson) is incapable of making rational decisions,” seems to think that a federal judge will get all the paper work and pleas and make a ruling that very day. Why he thinks that such an occurrence might happen is unclear.

What will result is dragging a severely mentally ill man into the death house. That means that he’ll be awakened at midnight and forced to decide what will happen to all his personal affects after his death. He’ll be separated from all of his possessions, his Bible, pictures of family, everything, and moved into a terrifying and unknown cell under constant surveillance.

Now we’ve heard that the execution won’t occur. But at least we will get a chance to further disturb an already disturbed man and once again drag up painful memories for a grieving family. I’m not saying the Attorney General is out for blood, but what purpose can this serve?

Fairly, there are numerous aspects you would like to think about medications. All discount medicaments save money, but few online drugstores offer better deals than other online drugstores. There isn’t anything you can’t order online anymore. Remedies like Deltasone ordinarily is used to treat diseases such as eye problems. Glucocorticoids naturally occurring steroids, which are easily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. There are varied drugs for every conditions. Cialis is a remedy prescribed to treat many illnesses. What do you already know about long term side effects of cialis? What consumers talk about how long does it take for cialis to take effect? A general sexual appeal among men is the erectile dysfunction. Sexual problems mostly signal deeper problems: low libido or erectile dysfunction can be the symptom a strong heartiness problem such as heart trouble. Albeit the erectile disfunction itself isn’t necessarily dangerous, erectile malfunction is sometimes one of the early warning symptoms of other underlying soundness conditions that can be extremely dangerous. Unfortunately nearly all over-the-counter medicines have sometimes dangerous aftereffects, from muscle aches to death. If you buy any erectile disfunction medicaments like Cialis, check with a physician that they are sure to take with your other drugs. Do not take unwanted medications. Take Cialis to your local chemist’s shop which will dispose of them for you.

A Hard Day’s Night

Some days just seem long. You’ve been sitting and working for an hour and a half and then you look at the clock and realize that it’s only been 7 minutes and 34 seconds. You feel like you’ve worked a sixteen hour day.

And then some days just frankly are long. you may get up at 4:30 in the morning to be on the road at 5:00 to make a presentation to a ministerial association at 8:00. And you may have to give a talk in a different city (also not the on where you live) in the evening. Wait, did I just get a little literal for a hypothetical post?

Well yes. Yesterday I was on the road at 5 am to make it to McKenzie, TN before 8:00 for a presentation to the ministerial association. And yes, I did have to give a talk at a church in Germantown in the evening. So I did leave my house at 5:00 in the morning and finally made it back a little after 11:00 at night, with hardly a break anywhere in there.

Who would do this to me? Who would be so cruel? I can tell you. Allen McQueen.

That’s right, Allen McQueen (above on far right) TCASK’s youngest board member is the slave driver responsible for my endless driving, speaking, and meetings yesterday. And bless his heart, he did a great job!

Allen has been working as an unstoppable one man force on the Bethel College campus. When I arrived, he’d not only set up a meeting with the McKenzie Ministerial Association, he had meetings for us with three different professors, the campus chaplain, and the development office, not to mention a number of interested students. So let me tell you, we’ve gone from nothing (or actually only Allen) in Carroll County to having already scheduled the first National Weekend of Faith in Action 2006 event already, having a write-a-thon set, a lobby training (or actually 2, 1 on campus and 1 in the city at large) and getting people psyched to join the TCASK day on the hill! And that’s what we can do.

See, we two, we happy two (yep, I just bastardized Shakespeare’s King Henry V) at the state office are ready, willing, and, frankly, overjoyed to wake up at 4:30 to come and take meetings, make presentations, pitch ideas, offer programs, and strategize. But we don’t know who we need to talk to in your community. You do! “Only you can prevent executions,” Smoky the Bear almost said. So you figure out who we need to talk to and we’ll come out and talk t them with you. Everyone’s just gotta be like Allen! He knows how to git ‘er done!
