Anyone else find a Lincoln Log in their sock drawer this morning??
I was over in Australia during Easter. It was interesting to note they celebrate Easter the same way we do -- commemorating the death and resurrection of Jesus by telling our children a giant bunny rabbit ... left chocolate eggs in the night ...
Gee, I wonder why we're so messed up as a race. You know, I've read the Bible -- can't find the words "bunny" or "chocolate" in the whole book.
Where do we get this stuff from? And why those two things? Why not "Goldfish left Lincoln Logs in our sock drawers?" I mean, as long as we're making stuff up, let's go hog wild.

-Bill Hicks

Happy Easter everyone!

1. I was thinking about this yesterday!
Drove me to dig out my Bill Hicks DVD when I got home from my gig last night.

3. Sounds more like random feline silliness, but who am I to judge miracles?
I'll give you that one. Hooray for easter cats.

5. I prefer eddie izzard's description of easter..
Adult: "And Jesus died for our sins and was magically resurrected..."

Kid: "Yes... No.. Whatever just keep feeding me these chocolate eggs."
