A complete 180
Coming up in the next few days I have (in order of expected drunkenness): 1 bachelor party, 1 wedding and 2 graduation ceremonies. Wish me luck. But in the meantime...
I enjoy the random nature of blogs. Which is why after a post admonishing the media for the whole baseball steroid issue, I'm posting something which is of a much lighter nature and will most likely be patently offensive to some people. All I can say is don't take it too seriously. You've been warned.
First, read this article on CNN.
In short, there's a guy who has the domain name www.benedictXVI.com, which means he's got the pope's web site.
Normally, the first thing you'd do is sell it for porno like the WhiteHouse.com name (don't go there if you're at work). However, this guy feels some moral obligation not to commit what is probably some sort of deadly sin. Good for him. But it got me thinking.
What would you put on the pope's website anyway? Hmm.... (this is the part where you hear chimes and the computer screen starts to wave until finally you see a vision of the pope's website... except I don't know how to code that, so use your imagination)
- Pope-Cam: Watch the pope 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with the new handy Pope-cam (only $14.95 USD per month). Watch him wave to adoring masses, beatify nuns, and publicly damn sinners to the fiery pits of eternal hellfire. All in real-time!
- Popey, the flash-animated holy chipmunk: See this rascally chipmunk get into all sorts of trouble, from bathing in the holy water to accidentally declaring prophylactics legal.
- Interactive Blessings (only available during baptisms): Control the high priests of the Vatican during sacred Catholic ceremonies. Make them stand on one leg, toss babies, or even do the Macarena.
- Pope Blog (aka “the Plog”): Hear the Pope’s daily thoughts on the opulent papacy and other racy topics (Author’s note: This is the part of the post where you can write your own altar-boy joke)
- Prophetic Image Search Engine: Search the growing list of sites that have witnessed graven images of the Virgin Mary and other biblical All-Stars.
- Add-A-Sin: There’s always room for more! For a small fee, you can add just about any act or thought to the growing list of punishable offenses. Tired of taxes? Damn them! Don’t like elevators? Now there’s 8 deadly sins! Sick of people poking fun at Christian doctrine on their blogs? Send ‘em to satan!
(Don’t worry, I’ve already got my ticket punched)
