the creationist museum :)

Not just a security guard; a security guard to keep you from discussing the, um, 'exhibits' in anything other than glowing terms. An insecurity guard, in fact.

I'm not being homophobic or anything but er...

This may well be the third gayest thing I have ever seen.

If anyones interested in the second and first;
The second was when my brother messed with my old laptop when I was out of the room and jumped into a webcam chatroom site where a naked, balding mustachioed man was reading a newspaper while sitting on a rather uncomfortable looking wooden chair. When I entered the room and looked at the laptop I was stunned for a moment. In that moment he looked up at me, nodded and went back to reading his newspaper.
My mother walked in at this point. My brother and I revealed that she was on cam to a naked, balding and mustachioed man reading a newspaper. She screamed and ran out of them room.
We burst out laughing and I clicked close. I regretted this as I later wondered what he had been reading that was so interesting.

The first I would almost certainly get a warning for revealing as it is of a horrifyingly graphic nature that firmly plants itself across the line that separates the unpleasant from the perverse off into the dark uncharted lands in which terrifying creatures clad in chains and gimp masks lurk behind every rock and would likely give even the most hardened of S&M enthusiasts dark shadows under the eyes from the horrifying nightmares they would inevitably wake up screaming from for the next five years.
Just sayin'.

I think it was the times.

We will never know for sure. :-(

Are you seriously suggesting that a naked man comfortable with webcam technology and internet chatrooms would be behind The Times? Maybe it was the TV Times; their ad campaign slogan was "I never knew there was so much in it!"

On the topic of Creationist Museums (anyone remember that? ), if I had the resources I'd love to set up a real version: a museum filled with actual creationists. It would be a sobering lesson for future generations of schoolkids, a slice of history which, unbelievable as it will sound to them, actually happened.

We never got the TV times, Radio times maybe, but that was when I was making money so it could have been the Financial Times. Do you know there are people that presume those of us who sell our bodies for money, lack intellectual ability, they have never seen the shepherds market chess club in action though.

We never got the TV Times either, well maybe rarely depending on whether there was some article of interest or whatever. We were a BBC household, their programmes being of vastly superior quality while I was growing up in the seventies, thus it was the Radio Times for us as well. That is, until cheaper listings mags came out. After that, the only reason to get the RT was, again, articles of interest.

Footnote for all those who haven't the faintest idea of what we're on about: the Radio Times and TV Times are both TV listings magazines but also containing in-depth articles and interviews etc about whatever programmes were relevant that week. Originally, in the pre-digital age, the RT covered only BBC programmes while the TVT focused on the commercial ITV networks; as such they were bitter rivals.

Where else in the world can you visit Mickey, Shamu, and Jesus, all in one day! And obviously the Holy Land Experience is way better, because it costs $40 per adult ticket.

Forty bucks a pop? Stupidity sure is expensive!

Sure beats paying for sitting in a church and losing brain cells. It at least gets you out and about

Do they let you take your own stones, or can you buy proper pointy ones and bags of gravel, à la Life of Brian?
