[slight hijack]

A guy I used to work for took a filmmaking class in college. He had conceived a commercial for Pepsi, where just before the Crucifiction Jesus is dragging his heavy wooden cross through the streets of Galilee (sp?). He’s sweating, tired, crowds of people all around and no one giving him a hand, while the Roman soldiers are behind him smirking.

Suddenly, one of the guys in the crowd steps forward, holding a bottle of Pepsi. Jesus takes it, takes a long swig, hands it back to the guy and says, **"Thanks…I’ll _remember_ you."**

Unfortunately, the teacher, though he liked it, wouldn’t allow Mark to make it. Pity.

Be my friend. Take me to the zoo. Buy me a hotdog. Teach me how to ride a bicycle. Walk on the beach with me. Watch the sunset with me. Watch the fireworks that go off every friday with me. Read me a bedtime story. Kiss me goodnight. And he shall never go want for klondike bars again.

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, what would you do for a Klondike bar?” Jesus answered, "It is written: ‘Man does not live on chocolately coated ice cream alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. Still, I’d eat a honey coated locust.’ " - Matthew 4:1-4 New Commercial Version
