There is a landmark, highly visible from I-75 between Cincinnati and Dayton, that I find disturbing... as opposed to inspirational... We call it "Touchdown Jesus" or "Drowning Jesus", but a friend visiting from out of town recently referred to it as "Half-a-Jesus". I worked a catering job in Glendale a few months ago, and one of the women I worked with called the thing "Butter Jesus". Apparently the roadside attraction has inspired a musical artist:

I don't know why, but I had been operating under the assumption that this thing was generally accepted as normal.
Buster tagged me to list things I want and don't want for Christmas, knowing full well that my blogging habits don't conform to that sort of time frame. Or maybe not... he is, after all, a little dog. Here they are, in plenty of time for Christmas, 2007:
Three things I want for Christmas:
1. Continued good health for me and my loved ones
2. US out of Iraq
3. Signs of ecological improvement
Three things I don't want for Christmas:
1. Another cat
2. Diamond solitaire anything
3. Another year of George Bush
But really now, why wait for Christmas?
