Mrs. Betty Bowers is the First to Review “The Da Vinci Code”

May 8, 2006 in movies, Religion

I have found a religious website that makes a good read for just about everybody. It’s interesting to see what good entertainment narrow minded republican american religous people can produce. This being one of them.

As an unwavering Republican, I have quite naturally burned more books than I have read. As such, I seldom read any fiction not found between the bejeweled covers of the Bowers’ family Bible. Nevertheless, believing that anything that infuriates Catholics can’t be all bad, I finally closed my autographed Bible long enough to read the The Da Vinci Code. I must say that Dan Brown’s book proved a delightful change of pace. After all, the entire volume has far less gratuitous sex and dismemberment by psychotic zealots than even the first chapter of the Bible, the Lord’s more effective stab at writing a book that makes Catholics look silly.

Linux: A European threat to our computers (by Tristan)

May 8, 2006 in Linux

This is a hysterical article I came across. ShelleyTheRepublican.com is an exstremely conservative american blogg that is pro Bush and pro Christian. The blogg has an article about the operating system Linux that makes for very entertaining reading.

Like most things that are worth owning, Computers are an American invention. Look at any modern computer and you will see that the whole thing is the product of American brilliance.

The article start out with praise of computers and its american heritage.

I’m talking about a project called ‘Linux’, something you may not have encountered, but might do some day.
It’s a computer program that was initially developed in Finland as a means of circumventing valuable copyrights and patents owned by an American company called SCO Group.

It then defames the Linux operating system as chriminal and ends with this:

Finally, remember to include Linux users in your prayers tonight. As individuals we may not be able to change people’s minds, but the Bible teaches that God can make any sinner repent.

As you can see, Stefano is the serious one and Trygve has a more relaxed aproach.

Pandora.com – Music genome project

May 5, 2006 in Music

is a website that recomends music for you based on your own musical taste. You tells the website which artist or song you like and then Pandora plays similar tunes in its web based player. This stuff rocks!

And after testing this solution its sad to say that it’s for US residents only :-(

The site can be found here.
