Michael W. Smith wants to eat your skin!

Michael W. Smith has FINALLY come clean on his plans to eat the skin of all humans. I am glad, I have known about it for several weeks now.

My younger brother Jeff Gavin (no relation) has been introduced to the black fine arts of Photoshop. This is a sampling of his wits and skills.

Famous Astronauts: Part 1

Most people don't know this but NASA has been trying to create a "cooler" image so that the youth of today (taxpayers of the future) will develop a great affinity for the organization. NASA was all the rage in the 60's when we were trying to beat the dirty Russians and get to the moon and all that. Nowadays people almost get mad at you for wasting their time if you tell them that space shuttles are being launched.

When NASA approached Vanilla Ice with the idea, he was a bit hesitent at first because he was enjoying a lively career in motorcross. But after thinking about it, he agreed. Mr. Ice really wants to be the first Outer Space Rapper.

NBC's "Fear Factor" Sued for Rat-Eating Episode

Thursday January 6, 08:03 AM Reuters New Media

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Watching contestants eat dead rats on NBC's gross-out stunt show "Fear Factor" so disgusted a Cleveland man that he has sued NBC for $2.5 million, saying he could not stomach what he saw.

In a handwritten four-page lawsuit filed in federal court in Cleveland on Tuesday, paralegal Austin Aitken said, "To have the individuals on the show eat (yes) and drink dead rats was crazy and from a viewer's point of view made me throw-up as well an another in the house at the same time."

His suit added, "NBC is sending the wrong message to its TV watchers that cash can make or have people do just about anything beyond reasoning (sic) and in most cases against their will."

He said the show caused his blood pressure to rise so high that he became dizzy and light-headed, and when he ran away to his room, he bumped his head into the doorway.

In a brief telephone interview with Reuters, Aitken said, "I am not at liberty to discuss the complaint unless it is a paid-interview situation."

A spokesman for "Fear Factor" said the show would have no comment until it sees a copy of the complaint. The spokesman said the program did feature an rat-eating scene in New York's Times Square on Nov. 8.

Over the years, contestants on the program have eaten some weird things, including ground-up spiders and live worms.

Arafat Impersonates Mel Brooks

Why does Arafat ALWAYS try to impersonate Mel Brooks? It seems like every week this guy puts on the checkered head scarft and military jacket that Mel Brooks has become known for. I dunno, it really bugs me a lot.

Bishop Tim Yoder

How many of you know Tim Yoder? Raise your hands...... Wow, a lot of you do, more than I would have thought. Well, I'll bet there is something you never know about ol' Tim. And perhaps when you find out, you won't actually believe me. But, I was cruizin the Net the other day, checking out some cool sites on cool topics like Saints, Mystics and Clergy and what should I come across? Direct proof that Tim Yoder is actually a Pentecostal Bishop. Yep, it is true. That painting on the left proves it.

By the way, is it just me, or do you see faint representations of St. Augustine of Hippo and Inatius of Loyola in the background. Since when did Pentecostals give a rip about them? I guess Bishop Tim could tell us, since he is soooooooo cool now.

Tim, tell us how long you have been a Pentecostal Bishop and the story of how you came to be.

A Porta "Man"?

Does something look a bit different about aPortaMan in this picture? I can feel that there is but I can't put my finger on it.
