"I know you know that I'm not telling the truth..."
I love Amazon. Despite the fact that it is evil. And insanely convenient. And horribly efficient. If you hit them just right, they can have an order ready to go in less than three hours - even if you chose free shipping. How did we ever survive before it came along? *adores*
Not that I've actually ordered anything particularly impressive. A couple of manga (including giving Fushigi Yugi a try) and the sure-to-be-excruciating New Excalibur tpb - because I've volunteered to be the guinea-reader and spare the rest of you the pain expense. I intend to share the pain. ;p
Tonight's scheduled vegetation: Watch the season finales of Monk and Psych, one of which I am looking forward to with much amused anticipation. Tape SG1 and SGA, one of which I am intending to watch on fast-forward, as usual.
Watched Exodus Decoded on the History Channel last night. Loved the logic of the plagues. I have no problem with natural phenomena being used to "explain" miracles. It's the timing that makes most things miraculous. Anyway, this has always been one of my favorite sections of the Bible, solely for how funny it is. Since childhood, I have always had this mental image of Moses being all "My God sends a plague of frogs upon you!" *frogs* And the Egyptian magicians being all "Pfft. We can do that." *more frogs* And the pharaoh sitting there going "Dudes! Don't help! Enough with the frogs already!" *flails at frogs*
This is what happens when you let small children read things unsupervised because it keeps them quiet during the sermon.
