I'd rather talk to moron than a zealot.

Apple's deep dark secret: churchofsatan.com was made with a Macintosh! My goodness, can you really build Web sites with a Mac?
Apple Computer, Inc. claims that churchofsatan.com's use of a "Made with Macintosh" logo on the site constitutes dilution of trademark. To protect themselves, they have brought legal pressure to bear to get the Church of Satan to remove any Apple references from their site.
What's next? Will Apple's rabid attack lawyers demand that the Book of Genesis be rewritten to disassociate the serpent/Satan with the apple from the Tree of Knowledge? I guess I shouldn't give them any ideas.
The interesting question is: what sounds more like Satan? Would it be a bunch of neo-Nietzcheists who like to dress up in black and have cool parties, or would it be an inhuman corporation at work in the world without fear of repercussion from human law, manipulating that law to force others into constant submission and inspiring cult-like loyalty with cunning and devious lies and shady promises about the effects of the enslavement to their products. Hmmm? No offense to the Satanists, but Apple's got the schtick down cold.
Shemhamforash!

Three Days and 25 Spocktails: A Cautionary Tale
Johnnie Royale picked me up from the dental surgery. I felt warm, safe, cradled in the anathesia's loving embrace. The pharmacy downstairs gave me a bottle of Vicodin and a few instructions: take it with food, don't mix with alcohol, don't operate heavy machinery. I put it in my pocket and we left. "Do you want to go home, or do you want to go to a bar?" asked Johnnie. (More...)
