You guys want sacreligious merchandise? Go to your local Hastings and get an [official _Passion of the Christ_ pewter nail.](http://www.sharethepassionofthechrist.com/jewelry.asp#nail) That’s a nail as in “the things they used to attatch Christ to the cross.” It’s strung on a leather thong so you can wear it like a necklace. :eek:

Meh…got loads of regular ones from the Catholic church already.  
I think they give them out on Ash Wednesday?

In the lines of “unfortunate candies” I always feel sorry for [these little critters](http://www.hotlix.com/bugpops.htm). ☹ 😉

[You’re in luck](http://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/1650000/images/_1651544_badcd-pa150.jpg) (the [comparison](http://utterlyboring.com/archives/joancrawford.jpg), though sometimes Condoleeza strikes an unmistakable Joan).

What is wrong with you people? Everybody knows that candy deities are supposed to be made out of _divinity_!

I’m around – I’m just not usually in MPSIMS. I always notice your name on posts - particularly when kilts are involved. 🙂

I’ve bought several of these as gifts, hehe. My sister must hate me by now.

I made sure to get my sister a big ol’ chocolate cross yesterday to go along with her birthday present.  
Even wrote on the box, “It’s sacrelicious!” 😃
