Story of the Year

Rev. Bob — Sat, 26 Dec 2009 19:12:57 +0000

The big news of the year had to be archaeologists in Jerusalem digging up the corpse of Jesus.

Christians were thrilled to find out that Jesus was real, not just a mashup of myths going around the Middle East at the time.

Christians were not so thrilled to find out that when Jesus died, he stayed dead like everybody else who ever lived.

The Vatican announced they are still hopeful the corpse will revive and go hunting for braaaains.

Please Write Your Governors

I’ve written to our governor, Bob Riley, saying:

I urge you to turn down all money from Barack Hussein Obama’s economic stimulus bill. Please take this principled stand so that the dire specter of socialism will not pollute Alabamians’ precious bodily fluids.

Can we make this a national movement? Should researchers and NASA employees whose jobs were cut by Bush Republicans and restored by the stimulus bill resign in protest?

I’m taking time from my snoozing meditations for this important news item: the Spongebob Squarepants Musical Rectal Thermometer

OK, were the title and subject of this piece too disgusting even for me?

Guess we know now.

Btw the comments on that article were priceless.

Here’s one more, sort of relevant from Paul at going.com titled “You think you hate your job?:

On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson &Johnson. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement:

“Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson &Johnson is personally tested”.

If you’re at work and start searching for “musical rectal thermometer,” Ex Cathedra will not be responsible for the consequences.

ACircle Puzzle

Rev. Bob — Tue, 13 May 2008 12:07:22 +0000

I found this on somebody’s blog. I promise I’ll com back and give full and proper credit to the kind person who originally posted it. I named the puzzle revenge.html because I was graduating from outpatient speech therapy, so I gave it to Sue, Mandy, and Rose Marie, who’d been my torturers since I’d entered HealthSouth. I don’t know if they solved it, but it’s certainly fiendish enough.

You’ve heard of how we’re taking ove r this formerly good, clean, white, Christian country. Here’s our website

Don’t worry, there’s still something to be frightened of:

You know the Bible 95%!

Wow! You are awesome! You are a true Biblical scholar, not just a hearer but a personal reader! The books, the characters, the events, the verses – you know it all! You are fantastic!

Ultimate Bible Quiz Create MySpace Quizzes

I’ve said that you don’t have to know a religion to believe it While these quiz results aren’t confirmation or disproof of that theory, — hell, St. Anselm knew that – they’re pretty good evidence that you don’t have to believe a religion to know it. Well, to know 95% of it. Religious education (back in the day when Kelly and I went through it as students and then teachers, they called it Christian Education) doesn’t seem to have had much return on investment in our cases.

Believers among our vast readership may want to take the quiz themselves. Maybe they can demonstrate that you need to drink deeper from that Pierian spring than we did.

I suppose it’s possible that quizzes on RupertSpace aren’t all that good. But this one says I’m smart!

It’s People!
