Here are a couple of interesting politico-religious parody sites. The first is light-hearted
fare by the folks at National Lampoon. The second is rather harsh, but

Out of the Mouths of Roosters
So it turns out that funny
Internet infomercial I mentioned is part of a popular series called “Red
vs. Blue“. I’ve been watching it and giggling like a clown on nitrous.
I haven’t laughed this hard since I discovered “Strongbad’s
Email“. 🙂

Ugly on the Outside
"Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly is to the bone." – Anonymous
The movement from records to tapes and from tapes to CDs has sadly killed album artwork. With roughly four inches to play with instead of twelve, nobody really puts effort into covers. Of course, just because they had a big canvas once upon a time, doesn't mean every album cover was as cool as one for Kansas or Klaatu. Here's proof – the ten worst album covers of all time (at least according to some guy). (Thanks, Rippleweb). NOTE: Some of the language isn't family friendly (but it's freakin' hilarious).
Bathroom Humor
There isn’t enough good bathroom graffiti these days. Either people don’t feel expressive
on the can anymore or it’s painted over too quickly to get wide readership. When
a magazine or a newspaper in the stall may as well be War and Peace, it’s
nice to have something pithy to read.

Crystal Drum Page seems to agree with me.
I was sitting in the men’s room at a Beds Baths & Beyond in downtown Manhattan this past weekend, where I found a heartening message on the wall to my right: “Everybody at 126 East 17th Street stinks.” Below that, slightly larger but clearly written by the same hand with the same red Sharpie, “Mitch Vogel forgets NOTHING.” Written on the toilet paper dispenser, possibly although not definitely by Mr. Vogel, were the words, “KILL KILL KILL KILL.”
