"Why is it ok to hate select groups of people on this site?"

My request was based on an extremely dissatisfying personal experience with the Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles (hence the "for me" part of the request). Perhaps you're mistaking my post as coming from a simplistic "christianity/religion hating" standpoint; understandable, given a lot of the sentiment I see on message boards in general, but that's not where I'm coming from.

That being said, your question made me rethink my request, and I see that it may have not been specific enough (and I will admit that I'm making an assumption about who will be doing the blessing). I'll restate it:

Be sure to give anyone involved with the Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles a big "fuck you" for me. Thanks!

Only 2 days away from having a safe year of riding (i hope). I was reading the newspaper article and saw that they plan on having at least 4 different religious leaders providing the blessings in hopes of satisfying the majority of the cyclists. And i guess this has been going on for 10 years in NY.



stevo4
05.11.08 - 7:22 pm

Waitaminute, the blessings only confer one year of safe riding? Vat manner of crappink is dis? I would have expected something divine to have a longer shelf life, y'know?

But like all tithings, etc. they want you to keep coming back. So you have to do it again next year to keep your warranty up to date.

A couple years back, I was a devout follower of the "Los Illuminado's".
Our main acts of worship were to kidnap and sacrifice the children of high-ranking people by injecting them with Parasitic, neural-interfacing, 4-tooth snakes.
However, I soon left after failing their rite of passage;
"Morir Es Vivir", or "To Die Is To Live."
Apparently, the "Die" part was a bit to painful to endure, so I was tied to the community Emu, and carried off to a freight train.

I went this morning to the Blessing at Good Samaritan. Got to meet the CEO who puts this on and is an avid cyclist. Nice Guy!! He's the young guy in some of the pictures. (Coming soon). Told him about the Freeway ride on Friday - he expressed interest.... The short ceremony wasn't preachy at all and felt 'balanced' actually. I do have to say that when we went by the minister sprinkling holy water on us, it did burn my skin a bit ;-).

And, although i'm not religious, when one of the speakers read off some 'fallen' or hurt cyclist's names, the first name i thought of was Danny. I hope he'll be able to ride Tandem on the ALC ride.

Others at the small turnout was Agent Orange, Barleye and his girlfriend (i'm spacing on her name- sorry), Chicken Leather and a couple of others i didn't know. Barleye, Girlfriend and i then went to Groundworks on Traction for breakfast where Vspange works. Thanks for the sammiches Michelle, they were yummy!

I'll post the photos as soon as they finish uploading.
