a cannibal was walking through the jungle...

in reference to tonight's debates, i thought i'd share this joke that a friend sent to me yesterday:

A cannibal was walking through the jungle and came upon a restaurant operated by a fellow cannibal. Feeling somewhat hungry, he sat down and looked over the menu.
+ Tourist: $5
+ Broiled Missionary: $10.00
+ Fried Explorer: $15.00
+ Baked Democrat or Grilled Republican: $100.00
The cannibal called the waiter over and asked, "Why such a price difference for the Politician?"
The cook replied, "Have you ever tried to clean one? They're so full of crap it takes all day!"

very funny.

i don't think i'll be watching tonight. i end up being irritated and confused.

i only watched the VP debate to see what Palin was wearing.

i'm not proud...just keeping it real.

thank you for that vulnerability, rebecca. were you satisfied with her wardrobe choices, or were you, like me, a bit disappointed?

I wasn't crazy about the choice for the debate. The back of her dress had a tail feather or something weird on the back at the bottom of the jacket.

And it was all black. Or perhaps navy blue and my t.v. coloring isn't too good.

Either way...kind of drab.

And no accessories.

Accessories are a VP's best friend.

But I do really like her hair.

But I promise when I pull the lever in a voting box I will pretend that they are all bald and naked.

That sounded bad.

yeah, i didn't like her attire that night either. but i totally agree - she's got great hair.

as far as picturing them naked, um...not so much. i would be voting for my wife, and i'm pretty sure she doesn't want to be president right now.

i just meant i wouldn't vote based on their clothes or style or general appearance.

i knew the nekked part would end up sounding bad.

sometimes i post a comment so fast without thinking of its implications and then i end up feeling like i need to put my whole foot and half my leg in my mouth.

i'm really sorry.
greg milinovich said…
hahaha - don't be sorry. i thought it was hilarious. good stuff.

I'd much prefer to re-type that I'll picture them all bald wearing burlap sacks.

I'm so relieved you aren't completely offended by my brashness.

i'm giving away the swamp

so this is a collage called swamp. i made it in february of last year. it is currently framed in a homemade, hand-painted frame. it is paper collage on a book binding panel. it is 7" x 10". and i am giving it away. i've been wanting to have a blog giveaway for some time, and the time has finally arrived. here's how it works. all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. by leaving a comment you are automatically entered into the contest (as long as your comment offers a way for me to get in touch with you, or you know that i know you). the contest will be open until next wednesday at noon, eastern standard time. at that time the contest will officially be closed and i will pick a random number. the person whose comment matches that number wins! for example, if i happen to pick the number 33, the thirty-third comment will win. oh, and one more rule: you can only post ONCE. if you win, i will send you the collage, signed by me, the artist, free of c...

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day. 

affirmed

i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...
