I just want freedom from these losers.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation launched an aggressive anti-religion ad campaign a couple years ago. Bill boards sprung up pronouncing the groups hatred for any and all gods. They are targeting Christianity and Islam specifically, and they have came up with ridiculous little phrases like "I don't need a god to be happy" (If you think the point of Christianity is to make you happy, you are gravely mistaken.)  And "There is no god, so stop worrying."

As ridiculous and child like as the organization has always been, they have somehow managed to reach a new brand of stupidity with their new ad they've truly plateaued:

Thank You.

December has been a good month for the monkey House. As a matter of fact, more then half of all my traffic was generated in. December. and as December draws near it's close I wanted to say thank you.



I assure you that I will continue to update my blog in 2011. We've only got 31 post, but that's not that bad considering that they are all original and lengthy.

I owe every one the second part of the post on podcasting, as well as the third post about file sharing. I haven't forgotten about them, I just can't bring myself to write them right now.


Deo Tecum

Glenn Beck steals from a dieing town. (Wilmington, Ohio)



The city of Wilmington Ohio has a population of 12,603 people. It is one hour from Dayton, one Hour from Columbus and one hour from Cincinnati. It’s only a twenty minute drive from my house.
Once upon a time, Wilmington was the DHL hub for the United States.
Once upon a time, in 1993 the movie adaption of the award winning play "Welcome to Yonkers" was filmed there.
Once upon a time, in 1995 Wilmington was named one of the 100 best towns in America (of its size.).
Once upon a time, in 1997 Time magazine said Wilmington was a great place for people to live.
  And then the town died. DHL had made the town and DHL killed the town,

1 John 2:10-29

He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.
 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.
 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

File sharing part 2: what happened to Limewire?

Never the less, there are some new developments on the "Limewire case" which are much more interesting then the information that was available last week.

File Sharing Part one.

Do you remember when Napster was shut down by the RIAA years ago?
the same thing has happened to Limewire when it was effectively  shut down by a lawsuit on September 30 of this year. 
Limewire was viewed by most as the spiritual successor of Napster, and with Limewire gone and Napster operating on a  pay-per-song model some may have questions, such as where can I share files now? what happened to limewire?  is file sharing  ethical?  (according to logic.)
I will attempt to answer  these questions in this three part series on file sharing, starting  after the Jump
