He Is Risen!

As much as I love Jesus (zombie worship is cool), it seems that Easter was a much more secular deal at my haus as a kid. It was way better than Christmas, because we got lots and lots of candy (which was verboten the rest of the year), gifts, and it was the beginning of Spring. I was horrified recently to learn that none of my friends grew up with an Easter tree, and (even more horrifying) that that don't have Easter trees for their kids (note that Nitwit doesn't have an Easter tree, though--it's tempting to put some ears on her for Easter, though). Ross informed me that Easter trees are a very German thing and he had an impressive one when he lived in Austria. I'm basically out of touch with WTF is my German heritage and what's normal. So, I had an Easter tree and bunnies and baskets.

Apparently, Ross is right, and the Germans take Easter quite seriously. This is awesome, even if the title is "Scary German Bunny Man":



I'm happy to have had that experience growing up. I really ought to explore my heritage a bit more.

He Is Risen

I had to get rid of the hover bacon because now my friends are singing it. Thus, I un-drafted some posts and this one, for the easter. No, I didn't eat ham to slam Jews today. I ate an onion bagel with the vegetable cream cheese. John's family eats rabbits for easter, and apparently babies for christmas. Excellent...I didn't think that he had a funny bone in his body.

It ain't JC Superstar, but funny, and only semi-blasphemous (I heart the Gloria Gaynor; I'm so gay; who were those producers?):



I still dig the JC Surferstar. That version of "Overture" is pretty boss. It's like they doused the guitars in spring reverb and called it surf music, though.

"Heaven On Their Minds" is probably the best track from that show--I dig the stutter guitar/bass lines. I'm convinced that Judas was doing dude a favor by turning him in to the man. This has some lame costumes, but the sound is decent:

Fucking Leprechauns

I was going to do another whiskey advertisement (last one is here) for St. Patrick's Day, but I'm not feeling up to it.

Today, I've been obsessing about leprechaun sex, though. Do leprechauns have sex? What does their junk look like? Maybe it's not gnomes that are stalking me....

I searched on the internet and the closest thing I found to "fucking leprechauns" is this Frank Frazetta (dude is awesome):



and this one, from here:



I need to consult my monster manual, but I think that leprechaun is riding on a snail or sitting on a smurf's house or something.

Hoppy Easter And Stuff

I'm really getting into Easter this year--I got up extra-early this morning to watch Jesus rise from the pumpkin patch so that he can bring chocolate bunnies to all of the good children in my suburban neighborhood. There must not be any good children here--Jesus did not show up. I should go check to see if the Easter bunny left me a flat tire.

This is a really funny video that I stumbled upon (the Winamp totally started talking to The YouTube a couple of nights ago for some reason):

The axe is a nice touch. Made me laugh.
