PIGS Y U NO FLY? AWESOME SHIT WILL HAPPEN WHEN U FLY.

one-way trip

from dc comics' wasteland #1 (1987), artist david lloyd, who, with writer alan moore, gave us "v for vendetta" and who will literally blow your mind with the dopest dope you'll ever toke ...

... or so they say.

the art of the backdown

(former) pastor melvin thompson:

the parents wanted to know exactly who had a problem with their future son-in-law.

"me, for one," thompson replied. he added, "the best thing [stella] can do is take him back where she found him."

i do not believe in interracial marriages, and i do not believe this [ban] will give our church a black eye at all.

an eastern kentucky church under a firestorm of criticism since members voted to bar mixed-race couples from joining the congregation overturned that decision sunday ...

... thompson has said he is not racist and called the matter an "internal affair."

thompson has since been replaced with a new pastor who said that everyone was welcome at the church.
