Duck Dynasty Time...

I'm sure you've all heard the controversy over Phil (Duck Dynasty) and his anti-gay remarks. Honestly, Duck Dynasty is all about the controversial, and up until this moment, no one cared!! I mean, if these quotes didn't raise controversy, why should this?  I go on a mini-rant here, but take a look below for a set of ridiculous statements that not only went unchallenged by the press, but were generally welcomed with laughs from viewers everywhere...and hey, why not?

   

Thankful

School is over! Finals are over! Siblings coming home.
Life is good.

What are you thankful for?

Live the kind of life so that nobody feels the need to lie at your funeral.

That beig sad, live every day with joy and always look to see what else you can be doing.  

Teenage girl problems...blech

I met him, I liked him.
I knew it would never happen.
I ignored him.
He ignored me.

Now he's Mr. Friendly,
all hugs and happy greetings

And my over imaginative brain takes over.
Sometimes being a girl sucks.

Because I liked you better

  Than it suits a man to say

It irked you and I promised

  To throw the thought away

To put the world between us,

  We parted stiff and dry.

"Goodbye" and you "Forget me" 

  "I will, no fear", said I

If here where clover whitens,

  The dead man's knoll you pass

And no tall flower to meet you

  Starts in the trefoiled grass

Halt by the headstone naming

  A heart no longer stirred

And say the one who loved you

  Was one who kept his word.

What about you?

If you had the choice to trade in your parents for a different, customized set, do you think you would do it?

Personally, as much as I fight with my parents, I wouldn't trade them for anything.  I know that someday, probably within my lifetime, they'll be gone and there won't be any way to stop that from happening.  This terrifies me beyond belief.
