Christians Against Christians

Published by Jody under humor, religion

Your Christian President:
This site is dedicated to the honest revelation of President Bush’s religious beliefs and political policies. ere is also the argument that Bush is the “lesser of two evils.” Even if this were true, the lesser of two evils is still evil and should never be an option for a Christian. My God, [...]

Podcasting for Dummies

Published by Phillip under books, humor, internet, phillip's room

I’m thinking about writing a book called Podcasting for Dummies, because it doesn’t seem to take much to become a pioneer in the field.

A To Do List

Published by Jody under internet

Ta-da List:
…makes list making and tracking easy. And, since it’s web-based, you can make a list at work and still get to it at home or anywhere else you have a computer or internet access (even on a mobile phone).

We are also experimenting with new scents, which work like a “doggy Viagra”, providing further sensory stimulation.

Call Me Hameulaul

Published by Phillip under annoyances, phillip's room

I never use my real name when I order a pizza or any kind of take-out, because the person taking my order always gets my last name wrong, the spelling and the pronounciation. It’s pronounced as if you were saying, “I’m going over to Karen’s house.” Cairns. Not Canes or Carnes or Koons or Raisins [...]

Published by Jody under humor, quotes

I’ve always wondered if there was someone else in the world who was having the very same thought I was having, at the exact same time. I tried to phone him, but his line was busy.

Published by Phillip under life, phillip's room, wwr

Yesterday on Whole Wheat Radio, I heard Jim say how cool it would be to do this (click to hear what Jim said). As soon as he said it, I said, “I’m doing it!”

A Found Photo (and a Thousand Words?)

Published by Phillip under phillip's room, photos

I found this torn photograph on the sidewalk today (click to enlarge). I wonder what the story is behind it. We’ve got a girl who plucks her eyebrows with her face torn in half; a guy wearing a backwards baseball cap; someone in the background listening intently to a wooden beam; and a hand holding [...]
