Booger is Healthy?!
Here's one for health food junkies... Did you know that eating booger -- you know, dried up nasal secretions -- can be healthy?

At Least Two Deaths During The Screening Of Gibson's Film

Friends of the Presbyterian pastor who died of a heart attack as he watched the movie deny any connection of the death to the "violence" of the film. Here is the news item from BBC-Online Hmmm. The Pope... Sign in to see full entry.

Catholics and the "Violence" of The Passion
I received another text message today. It came from a friend who is a non-Catholic. She writes: "Our pastor told us that the film was so violent that someone had a heart attack inside the theater. What do you say to that?" I answered: "Maybe, the guy who had a heart attack isn't a Catholic. A... Sign in to see full entry.

How About A Blogit Theme "Poem"
Cheers has a "Theme Song" and James Bond films have a "Theme", how about a Blogit "Theme Poem" -- a poem that expresses what Blogit means for its "citizens." To understand what I mean, I have taken snippets from two poems I've read this afternoon and present them here. From DOLT: So far apart; so... Sign in to see full entry.

He loves Christ (Jim Caviezel) I've seen Jim Caviezel in numerous interviews about "The Passion" (yet to released in the Philippines *sigh*).

When Your Blogit Editor Cannot Load Because of Data Loss
This is another Geeky Stuff for the Un-Geeky, but I put it here because of what I experienced earlier. I wanted to update "There Is A Geek In A Hole" with a new tutorial on tables. But for some reason, the Blogit editor didn't show up normally. Instead only a form came out without the tool bars. I... Sign in to see full entry.
