stuff that has been making me laugh


for one, the picture above. if the caption beneath read "sounding forth from the center of the real economy," i'd laugh even harder.

i've also been laughing at reggie white's exposition of the crucifixion as recorded by the
saint pete times. money quote below:

"Reggie White turned interviews into sermons, questions into homilies and the Super Bowl into a pulpit. He was a good man with a good heart. That said, it was suggested that, sometimes, Reggie's Bible had chapters the rest of us didn't have. White would give you an impassioned speech about how it was God, not money, who led him to Green Bay. The defensive end once said that he came back for one last season because of divine intervention. He said he was healed by faith, not by the trainer.

snip

it's hard to forget media day, when White suggested that Jesus Christ was crucified 'because he was affecting the economy." Huh? "He was healing the sick, and the doctors got mad,' White said. 'He was raising the dead, and all the funeral home directors got mad.'"

finally, i've been laughing for three weeks at the following joke: "what's the hardest thing about rollerblading?"
