Check out this funny office inspired short film – from the students at JP Catholic. h/t to The Sacred Page

This is both funny and true (and thus frightening). h/t to man with the black hat

Last night in my Confirmation Catechism class, I was looking for students to answer that the priesthood is about sacrifice.  Here is the brief exchange. Me: “What makes a priest a priest? what does it mean to be a priest in any religion?” …blank stares and silence… <<I start to think about how to elicit [...]

I watched this one at Mark Shea’s. It reminds me of some of the more creative biblical exegetes (and most things on the History Channel). Enjoy.

In a highly anticipated move, it has been announced that President Obama has been listed as the favorite for the Heisman Trophy. The actual award will be officially announced at the end-of-season ceremony. Apparently, Obama has watched a football game, and the awarding committee believes that is all the qualification needed. When the man on [...]

This one comes compliments of my sister-in-law. Guy goes into a bar, there’s a robot bartender. The robot says, “What will you have?” The guy says, “Martini.” The robot brings back the best martini ever and says to the man, “What’s your IQ?” The guy says, “168″. The robot then proceeds to talk about physics, [...]

This came across my email inbox, and I thought it worth sharing for a chuckle or two. To Employees: As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama is our President and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way. [...]

Gene-engineered viruses build a better battery | Technology | Reuters Researchers who have trained a tiny virus to do their bidding said on Thursday they made it build a more efficient and powerful lithium battery.

Here is a list of what the History Channel teaches about Jesus. He never existed. He did exist, but he was only a man. He was gay. He was a woman. He was married to Mary of Magdeline (I guess this makes him a lesbian.) His real father was a Roman soldier named Pantera who [...]

This is very funny segment from Jon Stuart. It is about how the rhetoric from President Obama’s speech and previous speeches by former President Bush are pretty similar. So the song remains the same. The telling point comes when Jason Jones says “I guess when Obama says this stuff, I don’t think he really means [...]

To My Secular Friends: Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion [...]

This may come as a surprise to those of you not living in Las Vegas, but there are more catholic churches than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshipers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed. Since they get chips from many different casinos, the churches have devised a [...]

This is way too funny.

I saw this story from Reuters Nintendo Co Ltd sold 666,000 units of its Wii video game console in the United States in June, becoming the country’s best-selling video game console, the company said on Thursday, citing figures from market research firm NPD.
