S-s-s-something from the Emails

So a loyal Middlespacer sent me this story and link:
Arkansas family welcomes 18th child, a girl
Thu Dec 18, 8:46 pm ET

ROGERS, Ark. – An Arkansas woman has given birth to her 18th child. Michelle Duggar delivered the baby girl by Caesarean section Thursday at Mercy Medical Center in Rogers....

"The ultimate Christmas gift from God," said Jim Bob Duggar, the father of the 18 children. "She's just absolutely beautiful, like her mom and her sisters."

[clicky]
I almost deleted that email but I figured if Loyal Middlespacer took the time to send it to me, all exasperated, "She needs to keep her legs closed or he needs to use condoms. They're pissing me off!" A nerve was touched.

Like I said, I almost dumped that note because I wasn't thinking how IMPORTANT this was in the scheme of all things human. My reply [w/typos fixed]:
"I am certain it's for the Lord too [hadn't read the whole article by that reply]. NO, wait, father must be a weird egomaniac thus all 18 chirrens with J-word names [father is Joe Bob].

WTF, people?

At first I was all...I ain't going to read this but now I'm fascinated.

They believe in their project though. It's a thing now. He bought the act long ago and has convinced her that it's her "mission." I get it and sort of respect it too.

If they could step out of the act for one minute, they would piss themselves off too. "Buying the act" is the worse thing that could happen to a person. Like that guy from One Day at a Time, Schneider or whatever. Joe Bob is that guy now. Little Richard? Evangelicals? All the same. Elton John too.

I say god bless Jimi and Kurt Cobain and Janis and Heath died in their prime. Fuck, Michael Jackson? Should killed him after Thriller.

People need to stop buying their acts."
Mother of 18? She'd rather die in North Korea's Camp 14. As much as I am fascinated by people they scare the hell out of me too.

I could say more but I have a Big Dave Wave meets that dude...what's his name...real loser...oh, Fred Thompson to post. Big Dave Wave meets Fred Thompson pic just trumped the birth of Joe Bob's 18th child.
