Holy Pancakes, Batman

OK Batman has nothing to do with it, not unless Chris Cope over at Dancing The Polka With Miss El Cajon has a job on the side that he's not mentioning.

He certainly likes dressing up.

All that aside, today Chris posted a link to a news article (can you believe it made the news?) about a family whose pancake resembled an angel and is being taken as a sign from God. Maybe next time my carton of apple juice is yellow I should take it as a sign from the toilet fairy, but I digress yet again.

No I am not going to post a link to this marvel of Divine communication - Chris has the link right here.

I am a long time fan of a sarcastic, witty, practical and no-holds-barred Christian-with-a-brain site called The Ship Of Fools.

The front page alone is a delight to those of you who like to extract the, umm, apple juice. Oh dear that analogy will have to go, not least because, until I get it out of my head, I won't be able to (go.)

Anyhow - they are short of pictures of Holy Mary on a potato chip etc at the moment but well worth a look for:

Gadgets For God (Check out the talking Jesus action figure with sample audio - but they are all funny and the write-ups are classic)

Fruitcake Zone - yup, the title says it all

Signs And Blunders - two lists, of printed and verbal slip-ups

Finally there are the proclamations of Reverend Gerald Ambulance.

Heres a plug for his new book, lifted straight from the site
