very interesting method of browsing amazon.com. via metafilter, where the poster compared it to 'flipping through books on the shelf'. very cool.

There are some awesomely cool pictures on this site which are all available for sale.

The annoying anti-copy message on each image only slightly detracts from their coolness.

losingmyreligion.com has a series of interviews with christians by Darcy West that I found to be quite entertaining.

Fun for the Whole Family

This could be positively mind-blowing. It would be most effective if the neighbors worked and you could get it done before they came home. You might have to buy off a couple retirees, though, just to keep the secret to themselves, to more effectively gaslight the others.

What Would Jesus Drive?

That's right, SUV owners. You're fucking going to hell. Say hello to Satan for us.

Could it beeeeeeeee.............


SATAN?!?!?

I arrived home with the intention of posting a cool site of the day link to something that we were playing with pretty much ALL night at work, in between dealing with patients. We were discussing the sense of nostalgia we felt looking at some of these classics.

Chick Tracts are an ubiquitous part of the fundamentalist landscape and they are just as much fun as ever! (Always a better find than the 'folded up $20 bill' tract, to be sure!)

Coincidence? Or is the hand of the Lord directing my mouse clicks in hopes of making the sinners repent?

Wow, I would've killed for one of those when I was a kid! Well, not really, but they're cool. Computerized sewing was becoming a big thing back in the days of the Amiga.

WOW. I know how to cross stitch already. I just need the time to do something like this!!! (If only there was a Joust graph. That was MY game. That and Robotron. Oh, and DKjr, and Pole Position and ... )

There were a couple of companies that produced official cross stitches for some pop-culture powerhouses back in the day ... I may have even bought some of the nintendo mario and luigi charts (I honestly don't remember. I'll have to try to find my big pile of cross stitching I'll never get to). I know I got some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles graphs on closeout ... and the California Raisins.
