Moblog: Sing this hymn with me

Oh Giant Mineral Chicago Jesus;
Do not detach from your lofty edifice;
We know you are up there to ease us,
but crushed would mean the end of us

God Fever

My daughter showed me this: (click on pic for HUGE but not giant, version)



They feature many highlights of religion, like:

Son killing as bluff-


The mass killing of those who failed to toe the line, or as god looked at it a "do over":


Infanticide based poker style conflict resolution:


The creation of countless widows and orphans:


Moses gets found featuring Margaret O'Brien:


Susan Hayward and Victor Mature:


Menacing Egyptians (a "don't touch my lunch !" sticker)


...and my fave Station of the Cross, Veronica !

Independence Day 2008 in GlyphJockeytown

An exhausted giant.



Children's programming legend Sally Starr.



My daughter went and got Sally's autograph for my wife - a tearfully sweet moment for all. We were ready to take the "I will not do what the Three Stooges Do" pledge right then and there.



This year's parade was neck deep in Jeebus. It was like a parade in The Handmaids Tale. Not a stem cell in sight. The Ba'Hai quit marching years ago.



Mummer color:



Caledonian kneebones:



Wheelie poppin' badass lawnmowers:

Tammy Faye No More

Tammy Faye Messner has died. I always felt that she was just along for the ride - mistakenly well intended. I remember her, right around the breaking of the Jessica Hahn scandal, explaining about her addiction to over-the-counter cold remedies, and how that was causing upheaval in the family.

Here's a repeat from the early days of GlyphJockey: The Heritage Village Map. I used to work in the cesspool of Cable TV - I found it in an abandoned desk and knew it would be of interest to someone, anyone who appreciated comeuppance.

This lady, however, kept her sense of humor and suffered. Not the comeuppance I had in mind.

Link @ pic!

It's a huge image of a cartoon map of the proposed Heritage Village - a Christian themed resort/amusement park, which was really a slippery embezzlement slope for Jim Bakker - Tammy Faye's husband.

La plus ca change.........
