May 21, 2001 - The Rapture and Batman

With EIMB, I try to keep things pretty non-political or religious .. just concentrate on the fun stuff while the fun stuff lasts. However, the following was just too precious to pass up. I'm not so politically neutral on my Facebook page and I posted the following:

This Saturday - May 21st - is the Rapture. That's where Jesus comes down from the sky and raises all da good people to Him. Because I forgot to purchase a ticket and have a fear of being naked in front of strangers - I will not be going. However ... if anyone wants to join me .. I'll be spreading used pants, shirts, socks and shoes around the parking lot of churches .. just to freak out the Believers Sunday morning.

I guess this tweaked one of my religious FB friends who posted a serious reply .. but given the situation ..  kind of funny. So, I included a screen-cap here with names and faces blurred to protect the cynical and the religious.

 No disrespect to Batman.

Of course, all of the Christians are starting to back-track this story. Now they're saying that it marks the beginning of .. the beginning of the start of Judgement Day.

Lego Batman

I'm not a big fan of Lego art sculptures. I mean I totally understand that it must take a really long time to build and some of the sculptures take incredible talent to create. I don't know what it is .. I think it's the pixelation that freaks me out. But I stumbled upon a fantastic life-size Lego Batman. Maybe this one masterpiece in Lego bricks will change my mind.
