All Roads Lead to Rome

That didn’t take long.  Only a few days since my post for “ready made art” a few of my Catholic friends are objecting to images of the Pope being disrespectful, unfair and etc.  First off the post and the images in question have nothing to do with religion.  What you believe or don’t believe is up to you .  Second…unlike the Bishops, Cardinals and Priests who have been issuing  meaningless apologies  for the abuse that has been covered up for generations there will be no apology from The Nally Boys.

The Catholic Church has provided a perfect model for the establishment and maintenance of a “Good Old Boy” network.  Frankly I don’t care if it is in Mississippi, New York, Boston, Philadelphia or Rome,  protecting the guilty  to maintain power  is wrong and all the prayers and promises don’t make it right.  Below are links to a few of the news stories reporting on the issue, 
Far from being a local issue the abuse of children by the Church is a world wide problem that is finally being given the attention it deserves.

Ready made art

Ready made art for Christmas



                                  Small prints ready for clear coat.

 The past few weeks have been playing with  my new printer and camera. What fun  new hardware is….and,  by the first of October we will have a shop full of  new Nally Boys stuff .  We call it the new stuff “ready made art”.  Art you can afford,  delivered ready to hang on the wall or display.  You don’t have to  buy a frame….just put a nail in the wall and you are done. 


                                  "The Fireman" by Wm B. Nally.....mounted on wood panel.

The images are printed using Epson  Claria inks on premium presentation paper., glued to a wood block and protected with  two coats of clear acrylic.  These little beauties will last a long time. Larger prints  will be mounted on wood panels with a clear acrylic protective coat. 

More pictures in a couple days.

God, please get off the phone !!

                                                      God "making the call" by Big Dutch Nally


God…….please shut up !

Sorry, I don’t mean to be rude but this talking to God thing is getting out of hand.  It started off with all the TV preachers claiming they had gods ear telling us to send them money.  Who can forget Jim and Tammy and their amusement park for the Lord…..that didn’t turn out so good.

And the classic Jimmy boo hoo “my bad’ and blah sob blah.   Lately with Facebook and Twitter etal the God talk is almost nonstop ….. With all the conversations with Sarah, and Bachman and of course Rick Perry (exposed here on the Nally Boys) it’s a wonder God has time to rule over the universe and fight the evil doers.

There is even a dating service advertising on TV that God wants you to pay them to find your perfect Christian mate.
It’s only a matter of time until the Lawyers get in on the act and tell us to sue for Jesus and get our share of the money God wants us to have.

Folks snap out of it …… these people are not talking to god, it’s all made up.  They are just trying to get your money, with the economy as weak as it is these days the “God Talkers” are working overtime to get the few bucks you have left.

So…..when you go to church this week and say your prayers, tell God what these creepy scammers are doing and ask God to take their voices away.  There is no shortage of serious good works that need to be done and these folks are getting in the way of all us well intentioned citizens.
