Happy Thoughts

Registering a 10 on my wrong-but-funny-o-meter right now:

Being reminded of the time Lee Corso's car was struck by lightning back in the day

Shrink-wrapped vehicles

Your mom

Your face

Your mom's face

Several memorable scenes from Talledega Nights...
"Dear Baby Jesus..."
"Dad, you made that grace your..."
"Hi. I'm Susan. I painted the car. We had..."
"If you don't chew Big Red, then..."
all of Cal Naughton, Jr.'s deep theological thoughts...
and of course, the Eleanor Roosevelt "quote."

just about anything on Lark News (they're so hilarious, I'll even forgive them for mocking InterVarsity Press), but especially...
the ads for WORSHIPERS GONE WILD (Vol. 2) and the THE (all Christian) PEARL JAM SOUND-ALIKE FESTIVAL ("Just like Eddie... only Vedder")
the poignant commentary on modern evangelical worship trends
and the Best-Selling End Times Books list:
1. Unauthorized Biography of Tim LaHaye, by Kitty Kelley
2. The Act of Marriage: End Times version, by Tim and Beverly LaHaye
3. Cooking with Tim LaHaye
4. Jabez and the End Times, by Bruce Wilkinson and Tim LaHaye
5. My Plans for World Domination, by Tim LaHaye

also, check out this Christianity Today article that describes some of the responses that the Bob the Tomato "We're Bigger than Jesus" story garnered.

Good stuff. Sacrelicious, indeed.

The Talladega Nights comments made me laugh, becuase sadly, I could finish each sentence. I think my favorite, though, is how his kids' names are "Walker" and "Texas Ranger," becuase "If we wanted our kids to be wusses, we would have named them "Dr. Quinn" and "Medicine Woman."

Debbie I had a long conversation about the new possibilities of children's names that this opened up...and decided that two little future O'Donnells will be named "Chuck" and "Norris." Don't read into that comment, they're not expecting yet!

Becky Lou!

That's awesome. Little Chuck and Norris O'Donnell. Whoo hoo! That means when they have fights, entirely new universes will be created!

How's life up in the Big Apple? We miss you!
