Padre Mickey invites you to Join Us! JOIN US!!!!

Padre Mickey’s Dance Party: Padre Mickey invites you to Join Us! JOIN US!!!!

Dear Bishop or Rector,

Are you a Bishop up for presentment by TEC? Are you a Rector accused of some sort of monkey-business with parish funding? Are you a member of a major dissenting organization? Are they oppressing you because of your adherence to the teachings of the orthodox so-called? Are you ready to practice the new Anglican tradition of jumping ship just before charges are presented? Why go to the Southern Cone or Nigeria or even Rwanda, when you and your congregation can join the Real Live Orthodox Episcopal Anglican Protestant Catholic Pentecostal Evangelical Fundamentalist Christian Church of All the Americas and Actually the Entire Globe; Yeah, that’s Right, We Include the Global South, the Global North AND the Global Center, So Where Else Ya Gonna Go? also known as the RLOEAPCPEFCCAAAEGYRWIGSGNAGCSWEYGG or The True, Really, I Mean It, Churchâ„¢?

We are the true Virtual Church of the Twenty-first Century and the latest Province of the Anglican Communion. Let’s face it; the Church of Nigeria, The Southern Cone, Rwanda, East Asia, are going to start making up for lost time and make sure you pay for the sins of your White Ancestors as soon as they’ve kicked TEC out of the Anglican Communion and shackled Rowan Cantaur in caves of methane ice in dungeons deep below Lambeth Palace. But we at The True, Really, I Mean It, Church(RLOEAPCPEFCCAAAEGYRWIGSGNAGCSWEYGG) don’t care what you think as long as you pay our initiation fee (only $500,000.00 U.S. in a certified cheque made out to Christ’s Anglican Safe Haven, or CASH)!

So funny, I kept reading and reading and reading – the Friday blogging of Red Mr Peanut Bank and Gallito Mescalito
( “Shrieeek!” ) made me laugh so hard I scared the cat. I think Padre Mickey is a regular over at Jake‘s.

The Power and the Glory Takes Out An Advert

Thanks to the good offices of Father Jake, we now know that God placed an ad in the British newspaper The Independent, trying to get someone’s attention at the time of the G8 meetings:

Father Jake Stops the World: God Places Ad in British Paper

In our area we occasionally get roadside billboards from the Almighty, such as “Don’t make me come down there – God” in times of national stupidity. But this is pretty classy. I hope God got a good deal for the full-pager and shows some return on His advertising pound.

Global Nerdy » LOLCODE, the LOLCat Programming Language

LOLCODE is your standard Algol-style programming language (Algol is the grandfather of just about every popular current programming language) married to the lolcat captioning style — that is, ALL CAPS and I CAN HAS SILLY CAT GRAMMER AND SPELING KTHXBYE.Here’s HAI WORLD, the LOLCODE version of “Hello, World!”:

HAI

 CAN HAS STDIO?

 VISIBLE "HAI WORLD!"

 KTHXBYE

Here’s something that outputs the numbers 1 through 10, a classic beginner’s exercise:

HAI

 CAN HAS STDIO?

 I HAS A VAR

 IM IN YR LOOP

 UP VAR!!1

 VISIBLE VAR

 IZ VAR BIGGER THAN 10? KTHXBYE

 IM OUTTA YR LOOP

 KTHXBYE

And finally, here’s a program to print the contents of a specified file:

HAI

 CAN HAS STDIO?

 PLZ OPEN FILE "LOLCATS.TXT"?

 AWSUM THX

 VISIBLE FILE

 O NOES

 INVISIBLE "ERROR!"

 KTHXBYE

“Visible” and “invisible,” “im in ur loop, uppin ur varbls,” and “o noes” included, all the good running jokes are referenced except “mah bucket.” But I’m sure some programmer somewhere will write a quick bit of LOLCODE as a quick ‘n dirty patch.

Live Earth: Spinal Tap Reunites, Breaks Up, Reunites

Live Earth: The Concerts for a Climate in Crisis

Spinal Tap is back, and this time the band wants to help save the world from global warming.

The mock heavy metal group immortalized in the 1984 mockumentary, "This Is Spinal Tap," will reunite for a performance at Wembley Stadium in London as part of the Live Earth concerts scheduled worldwide for July 7.

The original members of Spinal Tap will be there: guitarist Nigel Tufnel (played by Christopher Guest), singer David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) and bassist Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer). Rob Reiner, who both directed "This Is Spinal Tap" and played the fake documentarian Marty DeBergi in the film, will also be in attendance.

Reiner created a new 15-minute film, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.

Video: Watch the new "Spinal Tap" film now

Pretty funny, looking forward to the big reunion if they don't break up 16 more times before then. Also: Mac must have paid a promotional fee, the serene glow of white apples is in almost every screen.  

 

Pastafarians celebrate National Day of ARRRRRRRRRRRR – Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia

UnNews:Pastafarians celebrate National Day of ARRRRRRRRRRRR – Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia

CORVALLIS, OregonOregon State University (OSU) hosted the country’s largest and only congregation of Pastafarians to participate in the US government’s National Day of Prayer celebration. While the FlyingSpaghetti Monster and his high-cholesterol suffering followers are still not yet recognized by any of the world’s legitimate governments, it is still considered a more believable religion than Scientology and all its stupid Alien DC-9s and Thetan crap.

Darn! I totally missed this shit! Well done, OSU, our pants are off to you! Maybe we can all have spaghetti for dinner later and reflect profoundly on His Noodly Glory.

Well, at least I found the wonderful Uncyclopedia today. Icanhascheezburger.com cited their comprehensive section warning against the dangers of kitten huffing.

The Internets is so interesting! I’m sure the Lord FSM (sauce be upon him) had this in mind when S/he created all things.

(p.s.: I have an open mind about the Meathead’s gender, and also reject the concept of the Antipast.)
