I hope the world doesn’t end today — I have plans this weekend!
This must be Thursday. I could never get the hang of Thursdays.

[When the fundie is asked by her fellow fundies what the gibberish was all about she replied]
it’s called tongues and that also is revelation knowledge…it happened with good ole peter on the day of pentecost and it was revelation knowledge that appeared in the american church back in the 1900’s…..upon this rock……Peter…i will build my church…as the church goes deeper in the spirit we are more powerful against the devil and the darkness…..so yes..I pray in the spirit a LOT……

This is the first time I’ve encountered this “phenomena,” though I’m not at all surprised by it.

Cleveland Steamer
(from the you really don’t want to know dept.)
On a local radio program this morning there was a discussion about one of the new features at Busch Stadium that allows fans to send a text message that will appear on the scoreboard in right-center field for $2.99. The discussion soon became about some of the off-color messages that slipped by the system’s screeners. One of these messages was “I love Cleveland Steamers.” Having spent a good chunk of my life in the Cleveland area, I was curious just what this phrase meant. If you must know, a quick search with your favorite search engine will reveal the meaning or you can check out the Wikipedia entry (which has one of the “cleaner” definitions).
New Guestbook
Thanks to spammers, I’ve reworked the way my guestbook works. Rather than using my good old CGI guestbook written in Perl, I’ve created a page with Wordpress and leveraged the Wordpress commenting system to handle guestbook entries. Doing so, automatically adds spam blocking to my guestbook.
Now I can join WEIGHT WATCHERS!
