Oh, you poor unapprised earthlings. Too worried about your weight and padded cells and obscure predictions to see what’s right in front of you. Don’t you know, the end is on it’s way! For the big-bad of the Christian religion, the Anti-Christ, is upon us. And it’s not who you may think, either. Not Marylin Manson, not George Bush or Saddam or other Middle-East loony (Not that there’s anything wrong with loonys, mind you.). You wanna know who it is?? Really? I will dispense my knowledge upon you… It’s MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN!! They are pure evil. With their books, movies, magazines,makeup, and every other possible product directed at young teens, they are brainwashing the youth of America. But no one is paying attention, and one day we will all be held hostage by an army of Olsen Clones. I predict it. I may not be mumbling in my sleep, nor have I recieved any hallucinatory enemas (fortunatley), but this too shall come to pass… ---

Do we still have time to sacrifice the virgins? Have we any volunteers? Say, what’s the name of that obnoxious pop singer… ---

Would you rather be a fat angel/deamon/ghost? (I guess if you turn into one of those skelton type un-dead your earthly weight wouldn’t matter much.) ---

> [@](#): > > The real problem, jarbabyj, is not that the Tianquiztli (Pleiades) are too high, but that they have not been receiving their requisite blood sacrifice for lo these 480 years. If we had only been cutting the living hearts out of thousands of captives each year, this situation wouldn’t have arisen. But it’s a bit late for that now. My family has been honoring the ancient tradition of blood sacrifice for lo’ these many centuries to ensure the continuity of our world…at least, that’s why they told me we do it ---

So how have I been spending my weekends since **jarbabyj** warned us of what was necessary, and do I get a word of thanks? That’s it. You and the Dark Gods of the Underworld are on your own. I’ve had it. Disgustedly, Shodan ---

I’m listening to it this morning, and this was the first time I ever realized that the lady singing the song, was the one who killed Andy. MR. BLUE You didn’t know Vicki Lawrence killed the guy? NICE GUY EDDIE I thought the cheatin wife shot Andy. MR. BLONDE They say it in the song. NICE GUY EDDIE I know, I heard it. I musta zoned out whenever that part came on before. I thought when she said that little sister stuff, she was talkin about her sister- in-law, the cheatin wife. JOE No, she did it. She killed the cheatin wife, too. ---

This thread is HOW old? Here I was all worried after reading the OP. (btw… the Pleiades are not a constellation… they’re a star cluster in the constellation Taurus.) ---
