Amen, Chuck. This reminds me of the time my Very Bad Dog stole the communion elements. We host an all-ages New Year's Eve Party with people from our church, and just after midnight, we share communion as our first act in the New Year. A couple of years ago, the VBD pounced on the little bread cubes and gobbled them up. I had always said he was demon-possessed, so I waited in eager anticipation for him to spontaneously combust, but no such luck.
Do Mormons do communion? Or has Chuck converted to Catholicism? If so, and please forgive the unsolicited advice, you should probably make sure he's never alone with the priests.
Also, is the chip blessed, or is this just like a practice run for Chuck's First Communion?
G'mornin', Bucky. I still can't get over that awesome CD mix you put together. If I could find it, I would have Chaka Khan's "Tell Me Somethin' Good" as a ringtone on my cell phone. Right now the phone's pretty much worthless 'cause for some reason it's started ringing with "Theme from the Exorcist" and I'm afraid to answer the damned thing. (Hmmm, I'll bet that Very Bad Dog had something to do with this...)
Susie, are you familiar with the Rufus/Chaka Khan song "You Got the Love"? That one blows all the other Rufus songs right out the door. This greatest hits package grooves like all get-out: http://tinyurl.com/5sk5p
I actually *wanted* the Exorcist theme for my phone, but alas, I have the wrong model for that ringtone.
Squirl beat me to the punch today, furry-tailed nut stealer that she is. Honk when you drive past, sis!
Yes, Bucky, You Got the Love is a great song. I have this line in my head, "even a blind man can tell when he's walking in the sun..."
What Rufus song is that from? And do you know a band from back in the day called "Mother's Finest"? They reminded me of Rufus.

Ah the standard priest joke. *rolling my eyes*
Anyway, my parent's priest brings his dog to mass every day. Which wouldn't be so bad except for the fact that buddy likes to "sing" ALOT. His favorite time is at christmas and he loves to howl along to "oh come all ye faithful". Well, that and he likes to sing with the choir leader's seeing eye dog.

this trivial knowledge brought to you in part by 13 years of Catholic schooling. while being a praticing Lutheran.
Laurie, I wish my priests had done that when I was a kid -- I'd've been *excited* to go to church if there was gonna be doggies there! I love the howling thing. I'll bet it even makes Jesus smile.
Susie -- I believe the song is called "Walkin' in the Sun."
I remember the name "Mother's Finest" but they somehow got in under my radar. I'm checkin' out their greatest hits on Amazon, and I might just have to pick it up.
Always glad for funk tips, yo!
Bucky, I think you would like that Mother's Finest. We used to have "Another Mother Further," which has "Piece of the Rock" on it, with the immortal (immoral?) funk line, "Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was just as white as snow; Little Jack Horner stuck in his thumb, and Mary said, 'Don't do that no mo''"

At least Leta wasn't screaming in the restaurant! Throwing things could be seen by many to be an improvment.
Once, my normally laid back toddler spilled a bowl of fish sauce all over the table, the floor, the highchair and himself. All I could do was sit there in shock. :)
A man goes into a bar and askes the barman for a beer.After he finishes that beer he looks in his pocket.He does this another 3-4 times.The barman finally asks the man why do you keep looking in your pocket after every beer, the man simply replies when my wife is looking good enough ill go home!
That looks pretty close to how we did it when I was growing up Catholic. Only I bet whatever you are offering Chuck tastes better than the communion wafer I remember.
When my nephew was making his first communion, I told him that they make the wafers in chocolate flavor too and that he should specify he wants chocolate when its his turn to face the priest. My sister nearly killed me for that one.

greenthumb, I can't swear to it, but I suspect we're pretty safe hanging out here. I think God has a better sense of humor than some of His uh, "posse" has.
Haven't read the comments yet but Dooce, How Cool Are You to make the cabinets appear to be a cross... maybe this is a miracle, like the Mary sightings?
I'll vouch for that one...who else could of thought to give people red hair and freckles? Sure other people get some freckles, but redheads got the lions share. My grandma used to tell me they were angel kisses, one day I told her I must of been molested and I thought she was going to wet herself.
This is not blasphemous at all! Doggies are creatures of God - remember St. Francis - he's the patron saint of animals. And God knows that most communion wafers or bread taste like crap, so I am sure he approves of the Frito. When I was a child and had my first communion in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, my mother warned me that the communion bread didn't taste so good, and to make sure I ate it without scrunching up my face in disgust. I remember thinking "Well if it really is the body of Christ, it can't taste all that great". Well it didn't. One of the other girls getting her First Communion obviously wasn't warned and stuck that bread in her mouth and started gagging. If we only knew then that Fritos would suffice.
Greenthumb sayeth of his freckles: "My grandma used to tell me they were angel kisses, one day I told her I must of been molested and I thought she was going to wet herself."
Dude, if you ever change your mind about girls, you know where to find me. . .
Colleen from NJ: How Cool Are YOU, my friend, to be the first one to spot the cabinet-cross in the background!? I had to scroll back up to check it out.
"And behold, she did see-eth the sign of the cross in the cabinetry. And it was good."
I started out the good Mormon son and gave you monkey beautches a good run. Even went on a Mission for 2yrs to try and "SAVE" myself. That was stupid...I was with a male companion 24/7. What was I thinking?
Wow, I hadn't even noticed the cross of the cupboards in the background! Very nice.
What does Chuck drink in place of wine?

I hope you and the Avon World Sales Leader either cleaned up the Leta mess, or left a big fat tip. Nothing worse in the serving world than kids like that (regardless of the cute quotient) whose parents leave the mess and 10%. Ugg, made me quit serving.
Canadian Amy : "Chuck I am not worthy to receive you, but only say the word and I shall be healed." You almost made me pee my pants. Too many years of Catholic upbringing washed over me just then. Can we build a church for Chuck?

poor dooce, I hate when a kid does that. if i go to lunch with a friend and her small child and she says "i gotta go to the bathroom, can you watch her" and i say sure. and no sooner is mommy out of sight the kid starts to freak out screeeeeming at the top of her voice "MMMMOOOOOMMMMY!"
"WWWWHHHEEEERRRES MMMMMOOOOMMMMY!"
and i'm trying to calm here down while every geezer in the restaurant is glaring at me and about half are getting out their cells to call the cops on me. mommy returns "what did you do to her?" and she laughs, she knew what she was doing.
I mean, it isn't dog abuse to helpfully feed a dog his tail while he's chasing it, right? I was only being accomodating, and I can't help it if he was pissed when he finally got a good chomp on it.

Giggles - I've got another one for you. These days you don't have to take the wafer on your tongue, you can have it in your hand and feed it to yourself. My sister told my nephew that when they hand it to him he had better put it in his mouth and not in his pocket. His logic came up with a reason for that...
"Because if you put it in your pocket and then forget about it, you'll get Jesus all over the clothes when Mom does the laundry." HA!
greenthumb- my best friend for a while was mormon, I was always corupting him though I got him to climb to the top of a church and pee off it. I will answer john smith for that one. I think his parents forbid him to speak to me when he came home with a tatoo. I was so in love with him, but after going over the letters from his mission I think he might have been in love with his companion. Elder blow me. I so was not good enough.

Haven't we all? :-) I am sooo filing these things away for my nephew. I love teasing him but he's grown up so quickly and he's so serious all the time now that I have to really come up with some good stuff to make him smile. (rubbing my hands together with a mischievous grin now in anticipation)
Amelia -- since I'm a good lapsed Catholic, and you're a Dooce commenter, I'll give you the Lenten Friday Special price of $1.75. See? I'm still doin' good works.
Greenthumb -- I'll try that and let you know. But I'm not letting him see your picture first, else I might lose my man forever!
Laurenbove -- your mom puked during her First Communion? She's on the party list, for sure!
greenthumb- I also forgot to tell you that my daughter inhereted my freckled face, to make her feel better about them I tell her they are angel kisses, and we name them. Do you know how hard it is to keep up with bazillions of freckles? She won't go for bengie the 112th.

Ah, the wonderment of catholic schooling. I got seven years of it. Not once did I get to go to a mass where animals were allowed in however. This was the grumpy and most definitely no fun element of catholicism. And I had a very dour priest.
JP--I second that emotion. its easy has hell and Susie started one yesterday. She says she's not technically inclined either. We'll coach you both as best we can. Its fun!!
*scene from The Shining*
Hello, JP. Come and play with us. Come and play with us JP.
This reminds me of when we used to play "Baptism" in the pool. My brother and sister and I would take turns dunking eachother 3x, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. This is what 12 years of Catholic school does to you.
well get ready people because I am so useless, I just went to that blogger place which took all of an hour I need to formulate an oppinion and we'll see about that site later. Thanks for the support.
Matt Damon...if I were a green couch...where would I live?
I love Chuck. I think the dogs of the world may very well revolt at some point and stop doing our biding...and just lie around the house licking themselves. Oh wait. Mine already do that. Damn.
Mouse you are welcome to come stay with me if you are ever in Alberta! It wouldn't be too cold for you if you come in the summer time.
All this is reminding me of my catholic childhood. My family got 'family of the year' a couple times. I was an alter-girl EVERY sunday for YEARS. I liked being an alter-girl..made the mass less boring. Now I only go to church when there is a baptism or wedding. And of course Christmas (sometimes easter unless I can avoid it). My poor Dad is completely disappointed that I don't go to church every sunday like a good girl would.
hmmm
I'm not sure God had wafers, mass-produced in factories in mind, and the multitude of things the different demoninations have invented that you have to say and do to receive communion (Hell, even the name communion is made up by people) when God made Jesus say "This is my body" at the alleged Last Supper.

Nathan,
My point was - who makes the rules about what consitutes blasphemy?
God, or a bunch of guys?
Everyone who believes in God may not have equal trust in that long line of guys who like to make up rules for other people to follow and slap God's name on them.
Nathan, I think one person's humor may be another's blasphemy. In the absence of a direct message, I mean, aside from that of UPPERCASE, perhaps it's a matter of individual conscience.
_My point was - who makes the rules about what consitutes blasphemy?

I agree, God does.
I'm sorry if I came across all high-and-mighty or something - that wasn't my intention or attitude. I'm just not comfortable with blasphemy (and probably should have just closed the window, not left a comment).

Nathan, I respect you.
What you said at first was judgmental, potentially shaming "God is not amused by blasphemy"...
I feel waaaaay more comfortable with you saying you are not comfortable with something than invoking the spector of the punishing God or shame.
I'm sure it wasn't your intention and I don't want to be an asshole.
One thing I learned from living with non-Christian believers is that we Christians tend to assume we're right. For example, ask a Buddhist or a Hindu about what constitutes blasphemy.
Striz-
Fubuki emailed me saying he was so excited that you're on Flickr! he said he laughed on that Sanchez comment for ten solid minutes!
You rock my flickr world!
Don't apologize for what you believe Nathan. I mean, like I was telling Girl A. I think it's so cool to discuss these topics, because we see that even though we may not believe exactly the same things...we aren't so vastly different after all.
I'm pretty sure that God's sense of humor runs out when it comes to Kenny Rogers.

this trivial knowledge brought to you in part by 13 years of Catholic schooling. while being a praticing Lutheran.

Laurie, I wish my priests had done that when I was a kid -- I'd've been *excited* to go to church if there was gonna be doggies there! I love the howling thing. I'll bet it even makes Jesus smile.
Susie -- I believe the song is called "Walkin' in the Sun."
I remember the name "Mother's Finest" but they somehow got in under my radar. I'm checkin' out their greatest hits on Amazon, and I might just have to pick it up.

Bucky, I think you would like that Mother's Finest. We used to have "Another Mother Further," which has "Piece of the Rock" on it, with the immortal (immoral?) funk line, "Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was just as white as snow; Little Jack Horner stuck in his thumb, and Mary said, 'Don't do that no mo''"

That looks pretty close to how we did it when I was growing up Catholic. Only I bet whatever you are offering Chuck tastes better than the communion wafer I remember.
When my nephew was making his first communion, I told him that they make the wafers in chocolate flavor too and that he should specify he wants chocolate when its his turn to face the priest. My sister nearly killed me for that one.

Susie,
I'll vouch for that one...who else could of thought to give people red hair and freckles? Sure other people get some freckles, but redheads got the lions share. My grandma used to tell me they were angel kisses, one day I told her I must of been molested and I thought she was going to wet herself.
101. Katie-be-bored-at-work said:
This is not blasphemous at all! Doggies are creatures of God - remember St. Francis - he's the patron saint of animals. And God knows that most communion wafers or bread taste like crap, so I am sure he approves of the Frito. When I was a child and had my first communion in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, my mother warned me that the communion bread didn't taste so good, and to make sure I ate it without scrunching up my face in disgust. I remember thinking "Well if it really is the body of Christ, it can't taste all that great". Well it didn't. One of the other girls getting her First Communion obviously wasn't warned and stuck that bread in her mouth and started gagging. If we only knew then that Fritos would suffice.
102. Bucky Four-Eyes said:

Yup, thanks Heather. I was wondering if Chuck still matched your cabinets, or if the patina on the cabinets had darkened them any.
I know how hard you and Jon worked picking out a cabinet color that is the exact match of your dog.

Giggles - I've got another one for you. These days you don't have to take the wafer on your tongue, you can have it in your hand and feed it to yourself. My sister told my nephew that when they hand it to him he had better put it in his mouth and not in his pocket. His logic came up with a reason for that...
"Because if you put it in your pocket and then forget about it, you'll get Jesus all over the clothes when Mom does the laundry." HA!

All this is reminding me of my catholic childhood. My family got 'family of the year' a couple times. I was an alter-girl EVERY sunday for YEARS. I liked being an alter-girl..made the mass less boring. Now I only go to church when there is a baptism or wedding. And of course Christmas (sometimes easter unless I can avoid it). My poor Dad is completely disappointed that I don't go to church every sunday like a good girl would.

"Abstinence" is a hilarious entry, Dooce.
I love it when Mouse shows up. Mos remand mi ef ma own 1 gud dawg.
I think God must have a terrific sense of humor. How else to explain this world?
198. Matt Damon said:
Uppercase God! Where you been?
199. moose said:
i love it... matt damon talking to uppercase god. what next at dooce?
200. Brooklyn Julie said:
Yay for Chucklicious Fridays...I was in a bit of a funk and the site of Chuck licking his lips in anticipation helped throw it off for now.
Thanks, Chuck!

jp, I saw that my name was invoked here as an idiot trying to blog -- just kidding -- I know jack shit about computers, don't even know what html is, and I've managed to get started, at least. I was viry skirred for a long time, but I finally tried it because everyone seemed to be having so much fun. Give it a try!
dang, if you really mean that about helping the less-abled, I'll be emailing you some pathetic idiot questions any time now.
202. Matt Damon said:
Me and Uppercase God go way back. A-1 stylie.
203. Amanda B. said:
Whoops. Sorry Matt Damon. I had that little tree pic up for people who were being all mean and grouchy the other day.
Girl A.- why yes, yes I would. Does that make me a bad person?
204. Girl.A said:
Yeah, Matt, I think you implied that during Dogma, as Loki...
Something about franks, beans, steaksauce and talkin to God?
205. Nathan Logan said:
I'm not Catholic, just for the record. But I am Christian, and do believe in God. I also believe that He has a sense of humor.
I still think, however, that He's not a fan of blasphemy...
206. Matt Damon said:
Nathan: Look at the platypus for crying out loud. God's totally a chucklehead.
207. Girl.A said:
Nathan,
My point was - who makes the rules about what consitutes blasphemy?
God, or a bunch of guys?
Everyone who believes in God may not have equal trust in that long line of guys who like to make up rules for other people to follow and slap God's name on them.
208. Matt Damon said:
Girl A, you're the shiz.
209. Amanda B. said:
Nathan, you are awsome. I like you despite the fact that you are smarter than me. Hrmph.
I believe in the big G-O-D too. I think He knows we are just being silly kids. Otherwise I'm so grounded.
210. Susie said:
Nathan, I think one person's humor may be another's blasphemy. In the absence of a direct message, I mean, aside from that of UPPERCASE, perhaps it's a matter of individual conscience.
211. Girl.A said:
P.S. For all I know dog biscuits are God's preferred communion device.
For all I know every act of eating is communion with God, and all that keeps us alive.
212. Nathan Logan said:
_My point was - who makes the rules about what consitutes blasphemy?
God, or a bunch of guys?_
I agree, God does.
I'm sorry if I came across all high-and-mighty or something - that wasn't my intention or attitude. I'm just not comfortable with blasphemy (and probably should have just closed the window, not left a comment).
=)
213. Susie said:
Wow, look at everybody talkin' to Nathan up in here!
Amanda B., I like what you said.
214. Matt Damon said:
Theological discussions ae too deep for my ass. I'm outtie. Later fine ladeez.
215. JulieT said:
Body of Christ.
Love this picture of Chuck.
Good morning everybody!!!

You said it Amanda.b and Susie!!
217. Mrs.Strizzay said:
#189 actually made me giggle a squeeky little elf giggle.
218. Nathan Logan said:
All good points. Sorry for the anal-retentiveness. It's a throw-back to high school debate.
And Amanda, thanks - I like you too (and as we've 'discussed', I'm not smarter than you, I just do different shtuff)!
219. Uppercase GOD said:
BOOOOOOO-RRRRIIIIIIIIING
SERIOUSLY, I SEE MORE BLASPHEMOUS STUFF ON A BOX OF LUCKY CHARMS THAN I SEE HERE. I MEAN REALLY, THAT SHIT'S ALL ABOUT PAGAN SYMBOLISM AND IDOLATRY. THE KIDS EAT IT AND ARE ENTRANCED BY THAT LITTLE GREEN ELF AND ARE WHISKED AWAY OVER THE RAINBOW TO SOME ORGIASTIC DRUIDIC ECSTASY.
AMERICAN CULTURE IS RIFE WITH BLASPHEMY WHICH WOULD HORRIFY ANY OF A DOZEN DIFFERENT "CHURCHES."
I GAVE YOU PEOPLE A CHOICE YEARS AGO, AND I INTEND TO LET YOU DECIDE FOR YOURSELVES. I WILL NOT POLICE YOUR INIQUITY. IT IS FOR YOU TO DO SO YOURSELF.
THAT IS ALL.
220. kristine said:
What is it with these pictures lately? I'm HUNGRY now. Banana's and peanut butter...
I need to go back to work!!!
221. Nathan Logan said:
Strizzay, you've got some killa' pictures up @ ye olde site.
Nice.
222. giggles said:
I don't know if God has a sense of humor but I know his guardian angels do. I am a clumsy person but I know my guardian angels (I have more than one) do little things to make things more intersting and humorous for them and me! One can only laugh at the silly things going on in life, right?
223. Girl.A said:
Nathan, I respect you.
What you said at first was judgmental, potentially shaming "God is not amused by blasphemy"...
I feel waaaaay more comfortable with you saying you are not comfortable with something than invoking the spector of the punishing God or shame.
I'm sure it wasn't your intention and I don't want to be an asshole.
One thing I learned from living with non-Christian believers is that we Christians tend to assume we're right. For example, ask a Buddhist or a Hindu about what constitutes blasphemy.
Ok, I won't be serious no mo today.
224. kristine said:
Striz-
Fubuki emailed me saying he was so excited that you're on Flickr! he said he laughed on that Sanchez comment for ten solid minutes!
You rock my flickr world!
225. Ben Affleck said:
Matt, you know I love ya bro. But dude, did you see how fat J-Lo's ass is? I was hittin' that bro.
All night.
You can see her perfectly round nips in this photo. I pressed my hot full lips upon those.
And now I'm banging Jenifer Garner. Who have you banged bro?
226. laurenbove said:
Yep, Bucky, she did.
227. jules said:
den of iniquity.. (iniquity) .... ((iniquity))....
228. Nathan Logan said:
Girl.A, gracias for that. Uncomfortable is what I should have said. Sorry about that.
And it would be an interesting discussion as to what constitutes blasphemy, but this may not be the place for it.
=)
229. Amanda B. said:
Don't apologize for what you believe Nathan. I mean, like I was telling Girl A. I think it's so cool to discuss these topics, because we see that even though we may not believe exactly the same things...we aren't so vastly different after all.
Ok, can we talk about Kenny Rogers now?
230. Kassi said:
Matt Damon rocks.
231. Susie said:
Oh, Ruuuu beeee, don't take your love to town!
232. Mrs.Strizzay said:
Kristine, Nathan...thanks! My hubby was PISSED about the sanchez comment. I thought it was cute.
233. Nathan Logan said:
I'm pretty sure that God's sense of humor runs out when it comes to Kenny Rogers.
;)
234. Melissa said:
What a wonderful Chuck!
As for Leta, a friend of mine has a 7 month old son. She and her fiance apparently haven't been taking as many pictures as his parents would like, so his parents sent them 3 disposable cameras. Also, they emailed Grandma and Grandpa a picture once that featured Dad and the baby. But it didn't come through completely. When they offered to resend it, G and G said, oh that's ok, we got the part with the baby.
Never mind that it's a completely adorable picture of your son with his first born! Ah well!!
235. Amanda B. said:
Damn. What's a Gambler got to do to get some lovin'??
236. Girl.A said:
For it wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore.
And, I know, Ruby, that I'm not the man I used to be,
But, Ruby, I still need your company.
237. Mrs.Strizzay said:
You gotta know when to hold em'
238. Nathan Logan said:
_What’s a Gambler got to do to get some lovin’??_
Quit "singing".
239. Mrs.Strizzay said:
You know you want his snowhy white beard
admit it
240. Amanda B. said:
Oh, that's it Nathan Logan.
Let us battle!
*raises cool ass Samurai sword*
Girl A. and Strizz- word.
241. the niffer said:
When I was young I always wondered if that Lucielle chick was for real or if Kenny was just good at telling tall tales.
I mean, who would leave her husband with 400 children and a crop in the field?
242. Mrs.Strizzay said:
ice ice baby
243. kristine said:
Striz- That comment was HYSTERICAL.
if you guys haven't seen her way cool pictures, you might wanna go take a look see. Striz has a sexy shoes and some greens!
244. tIffany said:
I would. That crop in the field would be the final damned straw.
245. Nathan Logan said:
Amanda, I see your *weak sauce Samurai sword* and raise you a .44 caliber pistol.
But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question: do I feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?
246. LadyBug said:
the niffer!
I used to think it was 400 children too! Sang it at the top of my voice.
Also, Ruby, "painted up your lips of gold and curled your tinted hair." I don't think it ever occurred to me to wonder how she got gold lips.
247. Ev said:
Heather, Your piece comparing Leta to a raccoon made me laugh so hard! Thank you for that.
248. Girl.A said:
Amanda, I have my booger flinger ready. And if needed, those water balloons we filled with marmot semen.
Niffer, yeah - I woulda left when there were just 4 hungry kids and a crop in the field. WHY WAIT TIL YOU GET TO 400?
249. Mrs.Strizzay said:
* passes Manda an Uzi. You'll get a full clip off before he even cocks the hammer *
250. Amanda B. said:
I raise my hand at you Nathan and at you Booger Flicker and do that Matrix "bring it on" thing.
Where did Matt Damon go?
251. the niffer said:
Tiffany - the last damned STRAW. Funny.
Ladybug - I still it that way. Makes a depressing song a lot more cheery.
Girl A. - EXACTLY.
