Talking to the Wall

Praying For World Peace
In Jerusalem, a female CNN journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who had been going to the Western Wall to pray, twice a day, each day, for a long, long time. So she went to check it out. She went to the Western Wall and there he was! She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turned to leave, she approached him for an interview.
“I’m Rebecca Smith from CNN. Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and praying?”
“For about 60 years.”
“60 years! That’s amazing! What do you pray for?”
“I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims.
“I pray for all the hatred to stop and I pray for all our children to grow up in safety and friendship.”
“How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?”
“Like I’m talking to a fuckin’ wall.”60 loan car month7a loan small businessconsolidating about loans studentadelaide loan homeloan rates aircraft interestonline american company loan100,000 loan businessloan 123 llc Map

Fuckin’ high-larious. Hope you don’t mind, but I took the liberty of creating an illustration.

Never appologize. If I weren’t so internet handicapped I’d have done it too.

Hey, no problem. I don’t just hunt down graphics, I make them myself.
This one warranted a Sean original. Hope you dug it.

I think as time goes on, our graphic representations will get more creative and will probably bring out the artist in all of us. It’s so nice to have a good, base community of creative intellectuals at this site.

Sean - read your e-mail.
GifS’ers - I’m running with the new webpage Idea. I’ve already started it. If anyone wants to join in, I’d very much appreciate it. Esp if you know web design and can get online on the weekends (i can’t).
Please?

Web design? Not so much. Desire to make some funny at the expense of religion? Hell to the yeah!

Right on King. I’ve just started the page. I’ve got someone who can help with the layout, I’ve got several working on graphics. If you can do that or write something I’d be much obliged.
Check out the xian exodus site. You’ll get the gist of what I’m looking for.
