Because Halloween is the Devil
3 words: I hate people!
From Focus on the Family (no I won't link to them)
What to Do About Halloween
The Pumpkin Gospel
What you need:
* pumpkin
* newspapers
* sharp knife
* spoon
* large bowl
* candle
* matches
* Bible
What to do:
Prepare a place for your pumpkin carving. Set newspapers on a table and get out the knife, spoon and bowl. Cut an opening in the top of the pumpkin. Have your kids pull out all of the seeds and scrape out the inside of the pumpkin.
What to talk about:
* How is the stuff we pulled out of the pumpkin like sin in our heart? (They’re both yucky; sin is inside us; it’s sticky and smelly.)
* How is the way we cleaned out the pumpkin like the way Jesus cleans us out when we confess our sins? (All the yucky stuff is taken away; Jesus scoops out the sin.)
Note this activity can also be enjoyed by substituting James Dobson's head for the pumpkin. Focus on Your Own Fucking Family!

The Dying Gaul
This is the first thing I have heard about this
movie (Nov 4th) ... I guess all the hype has been on
Brokeback Mountain (Dec 9th).
Having fun with the new lights

Book 'em Dano, Act II
Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, was indicted today by a grand jury on one count of obstruction of justice, two counts of making false statements and two counts of perjury in the CIA leak probe. The charges allege Libby lied to FBI agents and committed perjury while testifying before a grand jury. The indictments are the first in a nearly two-year investigation into the public unmasking of an undercover CIA operative.
Those Were the Days
Most of you know I loves me some
Dolly Parton – she’s my favorite drag queen in the whole wide world. I finally heard her new album,
Those Were the Days, last night – WOW! I had heard about it a month or so ago and thought it sounded interesting, but no one told me it was an anti-war album. Of course, Dolly says it’s a peace album, but you be the judge. It’s all flower child/freedom rock anthems from the 60s and 70s performed as duets and ensembles; she drags out (possibly exhumes) Porter Wagoner and other classic performers like Roger McGuinn, Judy Collins, Kris Kristofferson and Cat Stevens – I mean Yusuf Islam – and adds new blood with Keith Urban, Norah Jones and Allison Krauss. The album is beautifully done; so much so it’s hard to single out any one track. The cover of the Beatles
Imagine is clearly the star of the album; but
Blowin in the Wind,
Me and Bobby McGee,
Crimson and Clover and
Turn, Turn, Turn are all amazing. Add to that
Where Have All The Flowers Gone and
The Cruel War and tell me this ain’t no anti-war-fuck-you-Bush album.
Viva la Dolly! May your make up never run and your tits never fall.

Our Father Who Art in Heaven
allow me to profit in thy name...
This sort of thing really chaps my ass.
Miu has a great idea for how this monstrosity might be used.
On another note: She's also posted
photos of Joaquin Pheonix and Reese Witherspoon from the Nov.
Vogue. Hot! Awesome photos. I'm not the biggest Reese fan, but she looks amazing (and she gets to pose with
Dolly, I am SO jealous). And, of course, Joaquin has always melted my butter...
Can't wait to see
this movie.

WW at "you know where"... Wednesday 6:00pm.
Here Kitty, Kitty
For the next six weekends Tulsa Zoo will have two tiger cubs (one white, one yellow) on exhibit. They'll be next to our Siberian tigers in the lion enclosure. They are super cute - basically giant kittens - but just keep in mind the white male will eventually weight around 400 lbs and the yellow female will be around 250 lbs. The female is about a month older, so she is bigger right now, but he's catching up really fast. It's actually amazing how quickly they have grown during the six weeks we've had them.
The cubs were seized by the US Fish & Wildlife Service (along with two elderly clouded leopards -- one of the most endangered species of big cats in the world) back in August. They were being illegally traded across state lines. Tulsa Zoo has an agreement to care for animals seized in this area until a suitable home can be found. If all goes well, these animals will go to Zoo New England in December or January.

Bill for First Lady
I peed a little when I saw this at AMERICAblog and it's a wonderful topper to the month of schadenfreude I've been enjoying.
Bush's political capitol turned out to be worth about a buck fifty
The neo-cons have turned on him over the Meirs nomination.
DeLay's been indicted (he'll be fingerprinted and have mugshots taken sometime this week)
Frist is under investigation by FTC for insider trading.
Bush's approval rating is lower than Herbert Hoover or Richard Nixon.
And if we're lucky we'll get to see Karl Rove, Scooter Libby and who knows who else (Cheney maybe???) frog marched out of the White House perhaps as early as tomorrow.
Now if the Democrats would just grow a set of cajones and mop the floor with these crooks.
Banners
Hey Guys and Girls,
I need to know if anyone knows of some companies that do a good job on banners for a reasonable price. One of my freelance clients wants to get one made. Thanks.

Cool Math Trick
1. Grab a calculator (You won't be able to do this one in your head)
2. Key in the first three digits of your phone number (NOT the area code)
3. Multiply by 80
4. Add 1
5. Multiply by 250
6. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number
7. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number again
8. Subtract 250
9. Divide number by 2
Do you recognize the answer?
Face Off
With the "face-off" in little more than a week. Here are some facial hair
ideas, more
ideas.
Now you girls dont feel like you are being left out ... You can grow one too.
You people with iPod shuffles
I was going throght the
Apple Store and I saw some accessories for the Shuffle. The
Audio Kit and the
FM Transmitter.
If I had the Shuffle I think I would go with the Audio Kit. I love my
Transmitter but I can only use it in the car.
toys
This is a cool
toy for all of you Pixel lovers.
This
Ant Farm is way cool.
I heart Apple
Steve Jobs'
state of the union address is a must see. The upgrades to iMacs and iTunes F*cking Rocks.
I am wet for iTunes Video. $1.99 for movies, music video and TV shows.
Therrrrreeee Baaaack!
I'm an original
Depeche Mode fag, so obviously I've been wet in anticipation of their new album for weeks now -- yeah, that can get uncomfortable. It will be in stores next week - if anyone wants to get me a late birthday present - but the band has posted a stream of the entire album on their
myspace site. True believers will love it. By and large, it's classic DM, though their are a couple of tracks that sound more like their later crap. They do a very good job of honoring their distinctive sound without retreading where they've already been -- and that's hard for a band that's been around a while.
Precious, however, does sound like
Enjoy the Silence, but I'm OK with that.

Satan's Birthday
Don't forget to repent at the
Landover Baptist Church as millions the world over prepare to celebrate Satan's birthday. Their
Halloween page is a hoot!
Jared: Remember this is a spoof - don't go all ballistic like ya did last time :)
Melissa we missed you last night.
You missed me getting tipsy on one shot of "Back-draft". (Last time I listen to LittleBit.)
Hope everything is ok.
Shots?

A Turkey Baster is a Many Splendored Thing
Tom Cruise and Katie, I mean, Kate Holmes are having a baby (alien spawn). Look for another very uncomfortable-to-watch appearance on Oprah any day now. The couple will be talking about their new movie: The Handmaid's Tale 2006.
Some Funny Shiznit
Check out these
hilarious spoof shorts (some NSFW).
The Puberty Pals (w/voiceover by Amy Sedaris) is my fav. Paul & Frank and Chinese-Baby.com are also VERY funny.
