Get Cynical

Have a good weekend everyone!

From CNN.com (sorry):

“We’re spending large sums of money to kick highly qualified gays or lesbians out of our military, some of whom possess specialties like Arab-language capabilities that we desperately need. That doesn’t make us more safe.”

From an email from Anjanette:

I just happened across the pictures of your kitty on a blog and I could
have sworn it was mine…

Ridiculous! Cynikitty’s game is Gin Rummy.

Or do you prefer his Sweet Child O’ Mine?

Here’s his YouTube page with the rest of his repertoire.

The video is available at Gawker and really has to be seen to be believed.

In journalist/blogger Daniel Radosh’s upcoming Rapture Ready, he investigates the parallel universe of Christian Pop Culture. It’s kinda like regular pop culture, except holier and with slightly worse production values. He says the music’s not as bad as you think, but from the looks of this EXCLUSIVE VIDEO, the TV is sublimely ridiculous, if a bit, uh, totally offensive. It’s from a TV show called Bibleman, which airs on Trinity Broadcasting Network. In this installment, Bibleman takes on a smarmy talk show host named Sammy Davey, who happens to be an embarrassingly exaggerated Jewish stereotype. Sammy Davey—played by a man in a ridiculous Jewfro wig doing an impression of Martin Short doing an impression of Jerry Lewis—totally ambushes Bibleman, the Christian superhero who apparently doesn’t fight evil so much as appear on talk shows to explain why bad things happen to good people.

Each gold-covered, espresso or buttercream-filled organic chocolate cake made by baker Sara Magid is $6 a piece at Brooklyn-based boutique Jan and Aya, so it won’t completely gouge your wallet to try at least one.

I think it is better to love your children than to love God,
a thousand times better, because you can help them, and I am
inclined to think that God can get along without you. Certainly we
cannot help a being without body, parts, or passions!
