My favorite stuffed toy (other than my childhood teddy bear) is my Christmas Opus (complete with reindeer horns strapped to his head).

So, b.org is 47% evil, 53% good. Although that's gonna vary depending on the show quote, thread names, etc. (I ran it a second time and b.org came out 60% evil, 40% good.)

The Gematriculator is a service that uses the infallible methods of Gematria developed by Mr. Ivan Panin to determine how good or evil a web site or a text passage is.

Basically, Gematria is searching for different patterns through the text, such as the amount of words beginning with a vowel. If the amount of these matches is divisible by a certain number, such as 7 (which is said to be God's number), there is an incontestable argument that the Spirit of God is ever present in the text. Another important aspect in gematria are the numerical values of letters: A=1, B=2 ... I=9, J=10, K=20 and so on. The Gematriculator uses Finnish alphabet, in which Y is a vowel.

Experts consider the mathematical patterns in the text of the Holy Bible as God's watermark of authenticity. Thus, the Gematriculator provides only results that are absolutely correct.

Em is n't quite old enough to understand the asking for and maybe receiving of toys. She watches Elmo and recognizes him places, but she hasn't asked for him yet. I wasn't a big fan before, now I'm pretty okay with it. The funniest thing is watching Em sinf the Elmo song. The Em version is, "La la la la...WORLD! La la la la...WORLD! ...FISH!...TOO!...WORLD!"

My new favorite stuffed animal (I got it for a friend's b'day but I think I need one of my very own):

My niece called Elmo "Melmo" and thus he will ever be to me.

It was fun to see the nurses react to Stuffed He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named-Again. "What's this?" they'd ask cautiously. I debated about explaining the whole "He's a plush representation of one of the Elder Gods, who, if you say their names too often, will manifest in our reality and devour us all." After all, nurses have access to drugs and people who can sign committal papers, and it wasn't worth the grief.

"He's my pet monster. He keeps the bad things away." They accepted that.

The funniest thing is watching Em sinf the Elmo song. The Em version is, "La la la la...WORLD! La la la la...WORLD! ...FISH!...TOO!...WORLD!"

You SO need to record this. And maybe post it on youtube. Too cute.
