This is THE authentic handercheif that had touched Paul and was able to bring healing (Acts 19:11-12). You can have it for only 4, yes, just 4, payments of $19.99. (It also comes in red, purple and chartreuse).
Act now and we’ll throw in Joel Osteen’s board game, “You’re Best Life Now!” for free.
Tim is auditioning for Howie Mandel’s Deal or No Deal. He thinks men should audition with the beautiful women on the show.
Howie tells Tim to flip the card to reveal the amount. He flips the plastic blue card, he reveals $19.99 to the gasp of the Purgatario contestant in College Station, Texas.
(If Tim gains enough e-votes after tonight’s performance of a live blog, he will be signed by a major blog agent to write new blog posts every day for the next year as well as assigments for live blogging every major theological conference in North America.)
“Boy, we are just the best of friends here at “Band of Bloggers.” We’re just such good friends. Did I mention how great pals we all are, why it startles me sometimes just to think about what great chums we are.”
(perhaps more of a t4g joke, ok, I’m jealous that I’m not there, that’s all)
Tim is about to have a rude awakening when he looks at the blank sign after singin “There’s a new name, written down in glory, and it’s…it’s…WHERE’S MY NAME???????????????????????
A Word of Advice: When you’re going up the stairs and you take a step, kick the other leg up high behind you to keep people from following too close. (it’s that “bubble” thing)
Just a thought: Sometimes I think the world has gone completely mad. And then I think, “Aw, who cares?” And then I think, “Hey, what’s for supper?”
Deep Thought:
If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is “God is crying.” And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is “probably because of something you did.”
To Edify: To me, truth is not some vague, foggy notion. Truth is real. And, at the same time, unreal. Fiction and fact and everything in between, plus some things I can’t remember, all rolled into one big ‘thing’. This is truth, to me.
Challies Proverb If you ever go temporarily insane, don’t shoot somebody, like a lot of people do. Instead, try to get some weeding done, because you’d really be surprised.
"With tens of thousands of new blogs beginning every day, it is rare that one comes along that is very different from the rest.
Purgatorio is different. Very different. Short on text but long on photo essays, this site is a
fascinating glimpse into the trends and fads within Evangelicalism (and occasionally beyond)" Challies Dot Com
"Purgatorio - Marc Heinrich's blog is only a few months old and today he got more hits than I did.
His "you might be emerging if . . . post" that i mentioned last week is already legendary. Challies made him
King For a Week, and I am making him Skinny for a Week... Anyway . . . congrats Marc on your excellent blog.
Love all the images! Now go and overtake Mark D. Roberts. And after him, set your sites on HughHewitt.com" Tall Skinny Kiwi
"Marc. We usually read your post daily for some great laughs." FIDE-O
"If you've never visited Purgatorio, it's time. The guy's got a sense of humor that won't stop. Jesus Creed Scot McKnight
"I just added Purgatorio to my blogroll, for good reason. Marc Heinrich is a witty Christian Hedonist
(from Minnesota, surprisingly) who blogs entirely through the medium of pictures.
More importantly, he also likes Radiohead. Go check it out - it's not the usual fare in biblio-blogging
and it's worth your time. Express enough interest, and maybe he'll invite you to stay at his house." Soylent Green
"Marc,You are an instigator, aren't you? That is one reason why PURGATORIO is great!" Rose's Reasonings
"Usually pot-shot takers aren't ecumenical enough for my taste (or funny enough),
but this site is exceptionally funny and not so mean spirited." A List of List's
"There are very few Christian bloggers that are consistently able to write funny posts.
Marc Heinrich is not one of them. He is able to be consistently funny while writing almost nothing.
And that is why his blog is one of my favorites." Christian Survey
"I'm chocking over here - I will just come right out and say it.
What???? I visited and that blob/site is garbage. My soul within me is burning.
Are you guys serious?????? ...c'mon, what is this blog. I'm disgusted. Redeemed
"My favorite place for funny or weird photos that say more about people than words can." Off the Main Road
"One of the truly unique efforts in the Christian blogosphere" Sharper Iron
"Be perjoritive if you like. I beleive you will see that my readers
will discern which of us is a 'kook'. I'm not the fundie here... Your comments prove my point, Big Time." Reformed Catholic Pentacostal
"I really should Rule 40 this blog, but these kinds of posts can't be found elsewhere" The Boar's Head Tavern - iMonk
"I'd like to point out that marc is somewhat delusional from searching the internet for images that
he thinks are related. It's kinda like the episode of Voyager where Seven links her alcove into the ship's sensor
logs and becomes hyper-paranoid about the intentions of the crew and ultimately pits Janeway against Chakotay even
though both conspiracy theories cannot be true." ...and His Minister's a Flame of Fire
