This is my kind of humor. Found on the really funny Letters From Kamp Krusty blog:

Dear Church Solution Magazine,

I do not think you should have a "sexpo."

I saw your website, for your upcoming event: www.churchsolutionsexpo.com. I feel that a sexpo, even in the interest of helping pastors expand what you call the "houses of worship market", is inappropriate, not right, and just generally wrong.

While the Bible is largely silent about sexpos, that does not, in my opinion, make your sexpo acceptable. You say, for example, your sexpo "will have a unique appeal for exhibitors".

I'm sure that's true.

This post just made me laugh embarrassingly loud at work:

In the news, O.J. Simpson is in jail for trying to reclaim some items in Las Vegas that an alleged thief stole from him. If O.J. is found guilty of asking a thief to return his belongings, he could go to jail for 30 years.

I assume O.J. is kicking himself for not killing everyone in the room, covering himself in their DNA, and going golfing. You have to stick with what works. What the Hell was he thinking?

From Freshly Squeezed O.J. on the Dilbert Blog.

Being a fool for Christ is one thing. Being a fool for no good reason is another.

Quick quote from Carl Sagan (of all people!):

"In order to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe."

Found this test linked on Noel Heikkinen's site. Very interesting. Especially since I've never read any Barth, but about 90% of what I read about him on his Wikipedia article really resonates with me. Note that similar to Noel (and also Brett, where Noel found the test) it's a close call between Luther (unsurprisingly), Barth, and Anselm (Anselm? Who is Anselm?)...gee, I need to read more books. :)



You scored as Karl Barth, The daddy of 20th Century theology. You perceive liberal theology to be a disaster and so you insist that the revelation of Christ, not human experience, should be the starting point for all theology.

Now, for my 300th post on this blog - a quote:

One of the most fascinating sites I've encountered in a very long time: Worldmapper. They currently have 366 maps of the world, where the countries are sized according to a certain factor. For example, here's the map with each country sized by their Infant Mortality Rate:


Here's a map sized by Military Spending:


Man, got to tear myself away from this site so I don't spend the entire afternoon there. Incredible stuff.

For some reason, this video really tickles my funny bone.

I'm sure most of you have seen the Mentos & Diet Coke videos by now. If not, you should. But did you ever wonder what would happen when you mix Mentos and.... beer?
