| Earth Day. Its almost comical in a depressing way. We celebrate many past presidents and give them their own day. Various important historical figures get a day, such as Martin Luther King Jr. We even get that day off from work. Hell, I get Columbus Day off. Go figure. We've got Teacher Appreciation Week. We've got African-American History Month. Jesus gets a day in December. Consumers, marketers, and retailers get the rest of December. Jesus comes in strong with another three days in March or April depending upon how the moon looks. And don’t misinterpret this, I think he’s extremely deserving of his four days. The Earth gets a day.
One day to think about the Earth and our stewardship of it. And how many even really know that its Earth Day anyway? Isn’t it a little comical? Maybe after we wipe ourselves out or God returns to pull us out of this wreck there will be a Human Day instituted by whatever is left. You know, just a day to remember us and what we did for the place.

| Awesome...the other shoe has finally dropped. Choke the populace at the gas pump until refuge drilling sounds more appealing. I'm sure no one saw that coming. |

| And the Mormon Church continues to pad its membership through careful application of its lack of consideration... |

| "Whenever you get in one of those moods where you just feel like you're not really living anymore...eat lots of hot peppers. Sitting on the bowl with chunks of shit and flaming mucus spewing from your rectum that's literally spasming from pain...its invigorating to feel that alive!!"~Diego Guillamez, translation |

| So, Mel and I were eating at a local BBQ joint this weekend when I reached for another hushpuppy and saw this. Of course, I burst out laughing and thought it was hilarious. Mel was moderately amused. Needless to say our waittress wasn't nearly as impressed with my find. And I promise, it wasn't staged, just a random bit of hushpuppy hilarity...
