I love it! This is one of the funniest things I have ever read!
Oh no- I just clicked on the title though! Ew!
Aw shucks! Glad my blasphemy amuses someone. The title link is not as sick as this.
HEE-sterical! I read it aloud to John just because I wanted to say “The Ultimate Sequel with no Equal, a Heart-Seeking Missile Epistle” in my deep announcer’s “Let’s Get Ready to Rumble” voice. That, and because the nuns working the silver pole for Jesus has to be one of my favorite lines from you, EVER! I forwarded it to several of my friends but generously changed the subject line to read “Michelle and her friends are going to hell” because if you’re going for writing it, I figured I should be going for chortling with heretical laughter...
We are off to a wedding in Niagara Falls this weekend... I’m going to park my fat ass at a slot machine at the casino like all the little old ladies in their souvenir sweatshirts and drop nickels like a pimp.
Oh, one last thing. I googled "Jason Rohrblogger" at work because I wanted to show your site to a coworker and wow! Have you done that lately? You are linked on a TON of websites! Some were a little weird, such as Games Economists Play and The Raw Prawn...how did you get such a large economist fan base? A little freak-y, my friend...
Daws Out!
Economists dig me because they work in base ten. I like my economists gamey and my prawns raw...
