This Was The Week That This Week Was
Just catching up a bit on the news items I've missed over my busy week:
- Virgin Chocolate?
Some people think this hunk of chocolate looks like the Holy Virgin Mary:
I don't see it. It kinda maybe sorta looks like Darth Vader, but really not even that. Maybe a melted Darth Vader?
By the way, here's an idea: How about looking for the Virgin Mary in the Bible? Check the book of Luke, it's full of wonderful stuff about the Mother of God. Of course, there's always the option of looking for images of Mary in ourselves and in the people around us. Saintly behavior and devotion to Christ is everywhere, though sometimes fleetingly, if you just look for it. Maybe nacho pans, grilled cheese sandwiches and bricks aren't the best place to find images of the Holy Virgin.
Just a thought. - Death By Chocolate?
A guy in Wisconsin darn near died in a horrible, wonderful way this week:Authorities say a man fell into a tank of chocolate early this morning at the Debelis Corporation.
Witnesses say it looked like the man was trapped in quicksand or cement.
The man was trapped waist deep for two hours. He says he went into the vat to unplug it.
After two agonizing, delicious hours, the man was rescued by a strange, top hat wearing man and a group of orange midgets:
- Advance Word About Snakes On A Plane
The Onion has the word from the street:
- An Idea For The Sequel:
How About Two Headed Snakes On Two Planes?
(World Aquarium officials in St. Louis ) hope an exhibit that opens next week and runs through Sept. 5 will prompt the creation of a Guinness World Record for the most two-headed animals on display. So far, the aquarium has lined up 10 two-headed snakes and turtles.
Yikes! Who'd want to go see that? I mean, who in the world would be interested in looking at bizarre, unnatural pairs of things that Mother Nature never intended? - Oh, Yeah…
Canadian actress Pamela Anderson stands on the deck of a boat before her wedding ceremony aboard a yacht in St Tropez, southern France, July 29, 2006. Anderson is wedding U.S musician, Kid Rock.
Congratulations to the famous couple.
Congratulations to Kid Rock, too.

Lorna: cheap shot at that lovely Canadian girl
Oh, at one time she really WAS a lovely Canadian girl. I found a blog that has some censored pictures of her from the pre-plastic surgery days, and she was very pretty. Now, these pictures appear to be from an early nude photo shoot, and they are censored... but somehow the presence of the black bars and boxes in the photos causes them to strike me as even MORE offensive than they'd have been if they'd been left alone. Anyway, the point is, before plastic surgery, Pam Anderson really was a lovely young woman. Now she's an interesting-looking Canadian polymer product. ;)

Yeah, I remember those old photos. She was much prettier as a natural girl, especially in her Home Improvement days. Now she's sort of a living blow-up doll.
I agree with you about the piece of chocolate that "looks" like the Virgin Mary. Why can't people look for God where they should be, in other people or in the church of their choice. It's comical the extent people will believe.
Love your blog!
Love your blog!
my friends and i e-mail about the chocolate stories as they happened...the virgin mary one's pretty funny...and the guy who ran into the deadly chocolate reminded me of agustus balou (sp?) as it seems it must have reminded you of as well.

At first glance, I thought that chocolate "Virgin Mary-Darth Vader" thing was supposed to be a cobra.
Then, you go on to talk about snakes. How weird is that??
I think Pam Anderson is a mess. She may be attractive, but I think her life is a mess. I'd certainly like to have her figure (minus the fake ginormous boobs), but if I had to have her life to go with it,
No Way, Jose!!!

Unseen: Wow. Mary keeps showing up in the oddest places! ;)
Yeah, odd, isn't it? She shows up in places we'd not normally look for her... and she's ignored and neglected in so many places where she should be honored as the wonderful Saint she is.

That piece of chocolate looks more like "The Amazing Pinecone that resembles a Fish."
As for that snake, I SO wish I had never seen it. :::SHUDDER:::
