The internet is filled with things. Here are some of them.
Our porn star hero, Rayford Steele, interacts with women just like any porn star does — minus, of course, the sex. It's all about dominance, exploitation, titillation and the stroking of — in this case — egos.The article expands on this thoroughly, Clark arguing his seemingly-far fetched claim in a manner both compelling and convincing.
The other key factor, [Bart Delp of Delp Monument Company] notes, is that headstones can face east or west. The direction they face makes a big difference. ...But, why? Why on Earth (or Heaven, I guess) does any of this matter?
But in most cemeteries, headstones face east, which puts husbands to the left of their wives. "To make matters even more confusing," Delp adds, "many cemeteries have stones facing both ways. And then there's Brunnerville United Methodist, which buries the man on the right regardless of which way the stone faces."
Delp says he has met many cemetery caretakers who claim couples are buried that way so that at the rapture, when they rise out of the ground, they will be standing as they were when married.And what's so Damn important about facing east?
That is, while the husband lies to the left of his wife, their heads are close to the headstones. So they would rise in reverse – the husband to the right side of his wife.
"Take this," Delp says, "for what it's worth."
"When the Lord comes the second time," [Sam Stoltzfus] explains, "He'll come from the East." So the dead will rise correctly in greeting.
I just learned the concept of a border blaster – that is, a radio station that broadcasts from one country specifically over the border and into another. The term was coined when describing stations that skirted American broadcasting rules by being based in northern Mexico, but with programming in English carried by strong signals situated specifically to reach American audiences.
And then there's KICY. By day, it's your normal Nome, Alaska AM radio station transmitting Christian programming at 5000 W in English for all the people of Western Alaska. But each evening at 11 PM, they crank it up to an amazing 50,000 W of power so as to scatter their now-Russian language Christian programming to all the peoples of Siberia. And apparently the FCC is completely on board with this. Although a small part of me can't help but speculate at the State Department's involvement and that approval – I mean, the local senator donates use of his private airplane to fly the staff on retreats to an exclusive hot springs vacation. C'mon.
