But I just saw a non-Donohue rep of the Catholic League on TV saying something like, "Would they do this with other religions? Would they make a chocolate Mohammed??" OK, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Muslims don't wear Mohammed jewelry, either! I mean, for crying out loud, people. That's the stupidest argument against this I can imagine -- Christians love creating art images of holy figures. Muslims, not so much.
I must have seen the same report as you-- I got so annoyed at the most ginned up controversy EVER. Jesus can't be naked! He must be barely covered by a loincloth! And the whole thing about how Catholics are MORE discriminated against than other religions. And come ON NY1, there's no way that gallery is considering taking down newsworthy, controversial art, even if the idea is kind of stupid (oh, it's chocolate, just like the Easter bunny, and My Sweet Jesus is a pun!) Needless to repeat, I was so annoyed.
A while back Texas (or I may be misremembering) decided Unitarian wasn't a religion.
So annoyed.
Nah, it was on purpose, because of the Tom Waits song. Not sure if that humor worked, though.
Well, not on me, because I don't know the song! But other people yes.
I think someone broke my coffee this morning,'cuz it's not working, which is bad, because I have a meeting today, so coherency might a necessary part of my day.
Chocolate Jesus lyrics:
Dont go to church on sunday
Dont get on my knees to pray
Dont memorize the books of the bible
I got my own special way
Bit I know jesus loves me
Maybe just a little bit more
I fall on my knees every sunday
At zerelda lees candy store
Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Keep me satisfied
Well I dont want no anna zabba
Dont want no almond joy
There aint nothing better
Suitable for this boy
Well its the only thing
That can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate jesus
Can satisfy my soul
(solo)
When the weather gets rough
And its whiskey in the shade
Its best to wrap your savior
Up in cellophane
He flows like the big muddy
But thats ok
Pour him over ice cream
For a nice parfait
Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Good enough for me
Well its got to be a chocolate jesus
Make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate jesus
Keep me satisfied
I love the part about the parfait.
GF and I had BLTs for dinner last night. Not sure if they're grown-up food or not, but they were yummy.
ION, we've almost got our living room back following the move-in. It's only taken us three weeks. We packed up a lot of my empty boxes yesterday (I hadn't realized just how many of the boxes on my shelves were empty) and took them out to the storage unit to make room for gf's stuff. Another week and we may actually be able to see the game table again.
I remembered that the vending machine still has mocha frappuccinos, so I didn't have to stab any coworkers for their caffeine.
I wonder if tired vampires ever suck the blood of the already caffeinated....
I hate FedEx. They keep insisting a postal code in India doesn't exist. Despite the fact that it's listed on the city's municipal site. And they won't even
consider
they might be wrong.
They did this to me over a medium sized city in the Ukraine once.
I hate them.
How's the GF doing, Kalshane?
