Why do I get this overwhelming urge to shout "PASSION OF THE CHRIST!!!"
in a bad Romanian accent, every time I hear or read the name of the film, or hear or read about Mel Gibson?
Is anyone aware of this phenomenon?:shrug:

8. Oh no...
The Kavorka can only be lifted if you buy an 'official' NAIL on a leather lace from The Official Mel and Jeebus website:

9. How much do they want for a nail on a string?
That has to be the tackiest promo item ever.

3. Try yelling "THEY GOT A PEPPER BAR!" instead

It works. I promise.

5. Not exactly
But I noticed that when my daughter and I are talking about some random event lately one or both of us when suddenly say "It must be the PASSION!"

Must be a different symptom for the same disease! :evilgrin:

7. I am amazed at all the hoopla and concern over a MOVIE . .
.
.
.

about what is supposed to have happened almost 2000 years ago,

while REAL carnage, death and misery is perpetrated daily by the USA and it's WarMachine on innocents by the thousands

But then that's REAL

and not in the mainstream of our Media or movie theaters . .

I just don't know what to think anymore . .

(sigh)

10. The Last Temptation of Mel
In one week, the neo-Pharisees launched a puerile crusade against gay people AND have worked themselves into a state of mass ecstasy over the most violent movie ever filmed. And it seems like only last month that they were outraged, outraged, I say, over Janet Jackson's right breast.

It's times like these that it must really suck to be the Savior.
