"That's not funny, Lucy." And it's not, at least I'm not in the mood for it.

Awesome. Loved both of them, especially this one--the scriptural resonances are everywhere. :) You've got talent!

*takes a bow* Thank you.
Looks like all the time I've spent in church lately is paying off =)

[roina_arwen]

Great job - it was fun collaborating with you!

I enjoyed this very much. Well written.

Thanks!

I love this rather modernized version of biblical innuendos.
You two did a great job with these entries.

[beldar]

It was fun working with biblical and Elvis references to make things fit without them feeling forced. Ro and I meshed pretty well in the process as well.

LOL, speaking as a Jew myself, I quite enjoyed playing around in Jesus-land!

[myrna_bird]

I did enjoy them both!

hahaha. Okay, so I haven't read all of the New Testament, but I did just watch Jesus Christ Superstar a few months ago, so I was able to get where this came from. Excellent partnership.

Thanks. I actually added the "superstar" reference at the last moment. Of the Passion musicals, I'm more a fan of Godspell.

I'm an Old Testament gal myself, so I hear you on this! :)

Well, I think I have read even less of the Old Testament, but I didn't think that was necessary to mention ;)
