Calendar Happyness, or, if you like, Jesus Saves, You Heathen


IT'S FEBRUARY!

And can someone explain to me why in that book about the struggling homeless dude with a child it's spelled "Happyness?"

You know when you read a book (Novel idea, I know. Hey...that's a pun.) and then they come out with a movie it's practically impossible to shake the image of the actor as the character in the book when you think about it[the book] in the future? Or, God forbid, go back and read the book again? Reading? Really.

I think we can all say for sure that when you read the Bible [THE book,] Jesus doesn't look like Jim Cavahsomething (The Passion of the Christ, 2004, also known as the guy from failed J.Lo vehicle Angel Eyes and the airline clerk from My Private Idaho [Internet Movie Database, James Caviezel]) but from now on when you're sitting in your church pew, Jesus/Jim will be the one who is speaking to you from way on high. And judging from his past role with Gus Van Sant, we can safely assume he is also a gay.

In reality, which is, given, very, very detached from religion, Jesus probably looks/looked (Do any of us know for sure?) more like [insert famous Israeli/Middle Eastern tv/film star here. I'm shooting blanks...drawing a blank.]

Or Will Smith.

Thank you and good day. February First. First Day. End of Days.

Damn you, Jimmy. You could have given me the heads up.

(You know...end of days...damn you jesus....jim caviezel...
jimmy...damn you, jimmy...end of days... no? Forget it.)
