  • This is a text I sent to a few people who I am thankful for over the holiday. A couple got offended by it, I don't know why, but no matter, I may have accidently missed you, and if so then here it is.

    Do you know what I am thankful for? I am thankful for that one sperm out of 400 million that was the strongest, swam the fastest, didn't get lost, and when arriving at the egg, was also persistent enough to burrow through that near impenetrable barrier, and at the very moment becoming the life of that most unique individual that is you. Because of that strength, persistence, drive and fight, you have positively effected my life. Yes that is why I give thanks.

    How can one get offended by the very act of themselves becoming into a being and being filled with the life of God's breath? Maybe you can explain it to me, it really kind of ticked me off, but then I am one who makes it a point to not take offense at something until I know that it was done with malicious intent. By no means am I perfect, but I do at least make am effort.

    PS I have long believed that the church of today has really two great sins that make it unacceptable to the masses, they judge to harshly, and the take offence to easily.

    PSS Holy crap that make me sound like a liberal, keep in mind that I believe in doing the time for your crime, being responsible with what you have been given, and in no way should enable someone to take advantage of that.

  • I thought it was awesome. It wouldn't hurt to remind anyone who was offended that, at one point, he/she too was a successful spermatazoa. Gasp! The horror!

  • I'm laughing out loud at this post, man. I was THANKFUL to receive the text message.

  • I think it's the reference to sperm. Christians like to euphemize things...maybe you should have called it 'man egg' or something. I dunno.

  • That's great!

  • Heaven forbid we came into existance because of... SEX. Though I'm thankful that you didn't go into detail about what that was probably like to bring me into existance.

  • i think that was awesome Casey. too bad i didnt get it... i hope you had a WONDERFUL thanksgiving. sorry our last phone call got cut short. things have been too crazy but hopefully we can talk soon.

  • You are the man, and I like your text message. It truly is an awesome thing how each of us came into being! I think it's awesome how big we are now compared to the initial size when coming into being.

  • the guy wasn't really from kentucky...i just called him a "feller", so...y'know.

    anyway, i can see why someone would be nonplussed by the imagery, but c'mon.

  • Casey...not the fault of the oil change guy...my car was pretty ready for an oil change...and it's been cold here...so the rubber thing broke b/c of the cold...I think...anyways...it's not the oil change mechanic's fault FYI...

    also...WWJD?!

  • ok...here's the deal...i haven't had the oil changed since i got the car. i don't know who did the oil change..i knew i should get one...but hadn't done it yet...SO...it's MY FAULT...ok?! YELL AT ME!!!

  • here's the thing, i'm sure you've asked many other women to marry you...you sly fox you. :)
