8302 - Would a zombie icon be inappropriate for Easter?

[scottobear]

Actually, I take a little micro-umbrage at that, because the stories have him as resurrected, not just reanimated.

Have some more Easter Lore.

and the marshmallow peep jesus said
(by adampsyche.)

I'm not a terribly religious man, but I do enjoy the sentiment of the Franciscans.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Some of those can be a little difficult at times.

As an agnostic, I'm not looking for eternal life, but I do want to be a part of making the world better for everyone. Pardoning is something I especially still need to work on. The lure of personal justice and worse, vengeance is quite strong.

Very handy freeware list for windows. I'm especially fond of Windows powertoys allowing me ot put cleartype on my big old CRTs

I forgot to mention the shopping find of the day yesterday -



They also make BBq sauce, and it's quite excellent, not ot mention the silly picture on the front. Apparently they're a fairly local Florida company.

Hm. I'd really like to see what the actual parameters are for lj top 40.

My LJ is now at #8, but it bounces all over the place each update. It doesn't seem to differentiate between individuals (like me), communities (like craftgrrl), or lj-specific journals (like news)

Most days, your posts are like shopping at a great shop. I take a little of this, I leave that behind, oh, I simply ADORE that, etc.

But today, I loved it ALL. =) And it just makes me wonder - what would I do without my Scottobear, hmmmm? Simply wilt, that's what. Thank you so much for you posts, your humor but especially your friendship.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I'm glad you especially enjoyed yourself today. :D

I suspec tthat you'd continue to grow and flourish quite well without me around.. you've got a wonderful family and other lj pals to love and nurture you right back... but I really do appreciate the compliment.

Thank you right back for your content of yourself, visions of your eye, belief and family, too!

Have a happy Easter!

[eryx-uk.livejournal.com]

And a zombie icon is only inappropriate if you are a very overly dedicated Christian IMO. I'm sure if God is up there he likes zombie movies too.

Hey, I'm about to breach church law today and open the shop, even if it is for just a tournament.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

I suspect that you're right about that!

I hope you have a delightful day, too!

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

You could just do it in the park!

Brilliant!

I've always thought that Easter should fall on passover yanno? seeing as that's when the original events went down....

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Calendars are funny things... the Greek Orthodox are Doing the Easter gig *next* sunday. More often than not, they synch up with Passover, though.

[slicedgeek.livejournal.com]

that is the best BBQ label ever!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

it's super yummo, too!

[slicedgeek.livejournal.com]

we used to have this local BBQ sauce with a picture of the company people's cat wearing a mini apron with BBQ stains all over it, that was pretty rad, but bald man beats them.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

for some reason, that makes me think of danigolden's squirrel bbq icon -



Mmmm.. food that looks like bald, yet hairy faced people !

[slicedgeek.livejournal.com]

any time i eat steak i think of that dani icon. she has infiltrated our braaaains!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Good thing she's awesome! Hate to have a jerky-person in there!

[slicedgeek.livejournal.com]

I might like peeps more if they bled.

[blackhellkat.livejournal.com]

I wish someone had submitted a photo of a Peep medical examiner doing a Peep-mortem autopsy--that'd been cool!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

there is the old alien autopsy footage...
