This line was too delicious to resist, I had to take it and paste it above for all to enjoy. Have you figured out yet, it’s not my phrase?
The author, Lisa Kogan from “O, The Oprah Magazine,” wrote a mean piece, not just because of the priceless phrase: moratorium on snarkiness. I mean mean as in great, not mean as in-well, never mind.
It’s about parenting and her writing style is a riot. It also hits home having always been a working mom. (Love that phrase too, as if there are any unworking moms, or parents, out there. But I mean work as in work, leave the home, then come back and do everything you didn’t have time for during the day…).
Go give yourself a well earned laugh and head to CNN to enjoy her article fully. (Oh yeah, that’s my present to you!)

Dear writers of Surface Earth,
You guys really are [%$#^] up. If you honestly think I’m so inconsistent, emotional, and ridiculous as the authors of the Old Testament, Tripitaka, Qu’ran, and “The Secret” make me out to be I really overestimated you. This is the one time I’m going to tell you: yes, I might’ve created the universe (you can never know for sure: believe me), but I’m strictly non-interventionalist. I swear I haven’t done a single thing besides speed up the invention of roller blades and pong. All the silliness you attribute to me is nothing less than some group think, gullibility, and self-hypnotism. Yeah, I guess at the end of the day it’s my fault that I gave you instincts suitable only for perpetuating your existences without much foresight into what you might develop into in the future (the whole sweet tooth thing… the impressionability of children… etc.) but I also gave you logic and reason. I suggest you use them more effectively.
Faithfully yours,
The One True God™
P.S. – The whole faith thing was a joke, seriously stop it.”
