Sometimes you just have to laugh. The Jesus Video is one of those times. Reading the about us page is enough to reduce me to giggles, I’m afraid.

And then a search on good old Google (God love it) produced – among many others – the Jesus licence plate, Jesus merchandise at www.jesus.com (I couldn’t make this up, more’s the pity), and still my personal favourite for pure vomit-induction pictures of Jesus and your loved ones. (more examples, including an 11/9 memorial edition) at this page

One day I’ll learn.

I’ll learn that me and Absolut, particularly the Mandarin flavour (and especially following ahem pints of Budvar), get on very well, but it does absolutely stuff all for my balance. So when I then go walking across grassy areas where dew has fallen, and slip into some kind of dip in the ground, I hit that ground like a sack of shit, twisting my ankle to buggery in the process. Einstein I’m not.

Of course, the fact it was in front of a shitload of people, and must have looked like a comedy sketch, disappearing behind the hedge thing like that, well, that’s entirely a side bonus.

But at least I didn’t smash it to shit like I did a few years back, twisting it so badly that the tendons pulled out of their anchors in the bones of my ankle. That one really did hurt. This time it’s just a light shade of mauve, and swelled up last night, but it’s OK today.

All the same, I feel like a cretin for doing it. I’ll learn, one day.
