The Odd Lady has been kidnaped by Landover Baptist! And for a pretty unfunny joke at that.

Ah, what a beauty. And accomplished as well. I’ll bet her mushroom noodle casserole with olive slices is the best!

I still recall as telling the recording of George, before he became chief incompetentmalevolentchristianmaleidiotoftheworld,during a pause during his appearance on the David Letterman show.
As Lettermans aide, during a program pause, leans across the desk to confer with Letterman, Bush, peering about blearily, notices that his glasses are dirty. He then proceeds to nonchalantly clean/polish his glasses on the hem of the sweater of the oblivious confering Letterman aide. Satisfied with the results he then returns to his comatose zen state.
I´ve always wondered why a tape of this incident wasn`t continually showed as a campaign add during his reelection camppaign. I think it illustrated all on that needs to be said on Bushs empathy, judgement, morals and intelligence. It is probably of signifigance that the aide was a middle aged female (Lettermans program director, I think).
Am I the only one that remembers this?

Ah jc., not to fret, non sequiturs are the spice of life.
Was I the only one who kept reading “Landover” as “Lavender” and thus reading the satire as not just Baptist satire but lesbian Baptist satire?

That’s just plain bizarre. Although I did have a nice long eye roll or two while perusing the *article*.

I feel kind of silly, but I really want to see that “rhinestone crown of thorns”.

I think that Landover is Betty Bowers’s church. She is a good Christian lady. Betty’s greatest concerns are female weight gain and poor fashion sense. And the fact that you are going straight to hell.

Who IS the mysterious Odd Lady? I recognize her as Twisty’s distinctive logo, but where did she come from? I hope I’m not marking myself as hopelessly ignorant, but what the heck, I want to know. She intrigues me!

Back in the olden days of the internet, I stole the Odd Lady from a gross-out site that posts post-mortem photos of corpses with their heads split down the middle and people having sex with poop and other sad stuff. I didn’t think she belonged there, so I just took her. Sue me.
What was I doing looking at that website? I don’t remember, but probably I needed to know what a corpse looks like when its been baking in the sun for 4 days.

I think that would depend a lot on humidity and ambient temperature. Maybe geography, too, though a lot of the organisms rsponsible would be carried in by, and in, the deceased.
I had a chat with Judy O’Christian a couple years back, and very much enjoyed it. Unfortunately, last I heard he was exiled somewhere in the Bible Belt, convalescing at his parents’ from a nasty accident. One more reason we need socialized medicine.
