Bible Thumper

I have been running from the interstellar police for a while, so apologies for the long wait. Tomorrow it's off to Pennsylvania to see my dear Kate, Minnesota to see her twin get married, and out to Yale for a month for a less-glamorous-than-it-sounds-but-still-cool teaching stint.

In the meantime I have been contemplating whether firefighters would be such objects of female lust if they were called by what I think would be a more proper name: "fire extinguishers."

Here's the funniest thing I have heard in a long time: Bible Thumpers. It's an answering machine message that has been making its way around. It's funny, scripted or no. Thanks to George Tuft.

You might also try crying while eating. Seriously, and film it while you do it.
