06-06-06 Helpful Questionnaire: Is My Child The Devil’s Son?

A Checklist for Christian Mothers
from Landover Baptist Church, via Fark

Devil Child Book

1. Ladies, keep your legs crossed until after midnight.  A True Christian™ lady always keeps her knees together — and June 6 is no time to stop.  As your demon child willfully pushes and kicks, causing your lady hole to dilate to the size of a drainage pipe, keep your knees locked together at all times.  This will give your demanding child a wonderful, early lesson that he can't always have his way.  To underscore this valuable disciplinary message, as the devil child flops around, trying to claw its way out to the human world to do Lucifer's bidding, continue to warble in a loud voice, "La la la la la la la I CAN'T FEEL YOU!"

2.  If at all possible, have your Baptist doctor induce the child to be born earlier.  The most reliable method known to Creation Science to get a mother to go instantly into labor is to jump in front of her when she least expects it and scare the dickens out of her.  If this doesn't prove scary enough, read the Bible to her.  Otherwise, FedEx a love processing gift of $2,000 to " Landover Baptist Church , Freehold, Iowa 55369."  As soon as your check clears, we will send you information on how to perform a "Creation Birth Reduction." Constance, the Haunted PortraitReduction will cause the mother to give birth two or three days out from her expected due date. If you have a weak stomach, allergies to dried locusts and can not drink human urine, the Reduction is not for you.

3. If the 06-06-06 date can not be avoided, make sure that the child is kept in a chicken cage on the hospital floor, and that there are at least two full grown hogs within four feet of the cage at all times. As a Bible-believing Christian, you know that demons and pigs act like the two sides of Velcro when they are around each other (Mark 5:12-13), so keeping them by your newborn's side acts as a Godly safety net. If one of the hogs starts grinning and snorting,  prancing about, or just plain acting full of the Devil's business by emptying its bowels all over the hospital floor, get it out to a lake and drown it as soon as humanly possible.  And you don't have to be a Christ-killing Jew to know this: Goodness gracious, don't eat the bacon!

4. Make sure you check under your child's testicles for any peculiar markings. For it is not upon the head (as the hell-bound Catholics incorrectly believe and, by all other indications, should be the Devilchild with hornslast ones to be wrong in this regard), but rather hidden in the rough skin on the nape under a newborn's tiny tallywhacker, or slightly inside the anal cavity that one should be looking for any signs of the Evil OneCreation Scientists have observed that the so-called "taint" (the disagreeable area between the genitals and the anus) is where demons are most likely to post messages for each other.

5. Place your child in the care of our Creation Scientists for a period of 10-days. During this period, they will perform a Bible Crawl and conduct Creation Science Experiments on your newborn to determine if it needs to be shipped off the Landover Baptist Home for the Demonically Possessed in North Dakota. The shipping charges and five years of care costs will be billed monthly to the same credit card account you use when you drop your child off with us.

6. You might decide (as many Christian families in need have before you) that it is best just to sell your child to the cause of Creation Science. Our laboratory and research center will pay $18 a pound (17 cents a pound for mixed race infants) for any child under the age of 6-months. Devilkid scienceIn making this decision, you can rest assured that you are doing something for the cause of Christendom™. Your family will be helping Creation Scientists better understand Satan's handiwork in early childhood development. This greater understanding will better prepare us in case (God forbid we'd have to suffer) there is a post-tribulational Rapture. If that is ever the case, the more we know about the enemy, the better.

7.  Buy an enormous, full Korean wig that cascades thick locks of hair down your back to your waist.  June 6, 2006 is no time for a pregnant woman to be walking around looking like a young boy, lest she be mistaken for Mia Farrow.

linkie o’ the day: handyman killers

Is this really Sebastian Junger? Given his experience with having the Boston Strangler as his handyman, it would only make sense. In fact, looking at Handyman Killers, quite a lot of things make sense, including the ex-roomie known to readers of the raincoaster blog as "Loserboy," the hash-addicted epileptic handyman who attempted to throw raincoaster from upstairs to downstairs. She still takes some pride in the fact that when the police got there they noted a large Nike print on his face. It was the least I could do.

Q. Are you serious about this?

A. Deadly serious

Q. How can I protect myself from handymen?Handyman as Archetype

A. You really can't. Just learn to fix things yourself. Or, if you must hire a handyman, make sure you are not in the house alone. Have a large, scary-looking friend come over at the same time.

Q. Is there any news about Jennifer Aniston on this site?

A. No. And there will not be – unless she is killed by a handyman, which is not at all outside the bounds of possibility.

Operation Global Media Domination: An Era Ends

TIAToday Clay Aiken and Michael Sandecki are outpulling Beautiful Agony as draws to this blog. And yesterday, both the Shebeen Club and the Irish Heather were for a time ahead of BA in the hit stakes.

And with that, an internet icon falls.

PS Don't worry, Sean, I am going to write up the real story as soon as I've had my little dinner break.

Freedom Next Time

Diego GarciaFrom a new book, Freedom Next Time, by John Pilger, excerpted in The Guardian, comes news of government intrigue and mendacity so extreme that it surprises even me. Until this report, I'd never heard a word of the forcible deportation of the entire population of the island of Diego Garcia and its subsequent illegal sale to the US.

What happened in the Chagos Islands was so searing, it may seem barely credible. Indeed La Lutte, as the Chagossians call their struggle for justice and freedom, arose from a crime that allows us to glimpse how great power works behind its respectable, democratic facade and how governments justify their actions with lies.

During the 1960s and 1970s, British governments, both Labour and Tory, tricked and expelled the entire population of the Chagos, a British colonial dependency, so that their homeland could be given to a foreign power, the United States, as the site for a military base. This "act of mass kidnapping", as one observer describes it, was carried out in high secrecy, along with the conspiracy that preceded it.

For almost a decade, neither parliament nor the US Congress knew anything about it, and no journalist revealed it. BBC newsreaders still refer to US aircraft flying out to bomb Afghanistan and Iraq from the "uninhabited" island of Diego Garcia. Not only was the Chagossians' homeland stolen from them, but they were taken out of history. This scandal is unresolved today – even though the high court in London has twice ruled that the islanders' "wholesale removal" was an "abject legal failure".

Here is a slideshow of the current inhabitantsUS military personnel. It sure does look nice there!
