Good News again, everyone!

This has nothing to do with Futurama (unless, in an oblique way, you feel it is appropriate to tie in to the commentary on one of the DVDs, in which one of the writers says, "we hate religion" in a HHOS sort of way)... So, you ask, what is this good news, the parenthetical caveat, for which, is more verbose than ... eh. I give up.

Bobby Henderson, the Prophet of Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, himself, sent me a "personal" email to tell me the Good News. Fron the email:


Fellow Believers,

Our day has finally arrived! The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is at last here. Maybe not inscribed on stone tablets, but it is a book. And maybe not THE Good Book, but at least A Good Book.


Bobby and I go way back (that's an utter lie. We go back to when I asked him for permission to use the Jolly Fish as tattoo flash. His affirmative reply included the remark, "Hahha.. that sounds excellent! Please *please* send me a picture of the tattoo!" then, "Where will the tattoo be located? Or maybe I don't want to know... Don't feel obligated to send pictures if it's on your ass or something - I can live without that." That's when I knew FSMism was the religion for ME! {Monty Python's The Meaning of Life... ? eh? never mind :| }) .. anyway, that's how Bobby got my email address.

Of course, the email goes on and on and on and on... this IS all about religion, you know...

So, aparently, they have it at the Borders near me. As you might imagine, I will be snagging a copy. Once I have read it, I just might post a review here.

Now that I think about it, I suppose I could have simply said:


Hey everybody, the Gospel of The Flying Spaghetti Monster is finally out!

... but that just wouldn't have been me.
