Sex. Politics. Drugs. All of the taboo subjects to avoid talking about at work are discussed here.
But one is missing. WHat could it be? Hmmm......
Oh, I know! Religion!
I mention this because I've had an epiphany. G-d (someone please explain why you shouldn't include the "o" in that BTW) himself/herself/itself told ME and ME ALONE when the 2nd coming would be upon us.
You're reading it here first. The Saviour will return NEXT week, February 25th, in conjunction with the release of the highly controversial film " The Passion Of The Christ".
However, there needs to be a little re-write, since it's not actually the sign of Armageddon that people would think it to be. Turns out he got an invite from Mel Gibson for the Premiere, and he thought he'd check it out himself as an honored guest. "I'll be in town that week,and I was able to move some things around in my schedule to attend", said the Son of God. "Besides, Mel has always been one of my biggest supporters, and I thought that this would be a great way to give something back to him."
When pushed on his plans following the film, the Lamb of G-d was a bit elusive, but dropped a few hints that he'd probably see it more than once. "The first time you see a film like this, you spend so much time scrutinizing the small inconsistancies that they got wrong, that you don't get a chance to just sit back and enjoy it as the work of love that it is. And I don't want to make any hasty opinions on first glance."
Rumors have been abound about when he'd make his personal feelings known, and Jesus was straightforward in announcing that hehad recently came to an agreement with Roger Ebert about doing a special guest appearance on his show. "It's never been the same since Siskel left the show, and I thought I might be able to add a little something....seeing as how it's based on my life and all. And it's not like I don't have experience at doing reviews. I mean, who do you think judges the living and the dead? "
Alot has been made about how the Jews have been portrayed in this film, and their role in his demise. When asked, he said "Oh, they aren't all that bad. They're really good guys when you get to know them. They were just a bit misguided, is all. It happens to all of us at some point. We all lose our way. Well...maybe not ALL of us. I did ok by myself. (laughs)."
And what about Judas?
"We were just playing pool the other day. All's forgiven. People make mistakes. That's why Dad invented erasers. and White-Out. Man, that was a good one. "
With that, we ran out of time to talk. Turns out he had to do a sighting in a tree knot in Wyoming. Laughing again, he said "That one always gets 'em riled up. " (Note to self: Don't think that Jesus doesn't appreciate the occasional non-malicious practical joke. )
Just remember where you heard it first.
