What's new at EricBrooks.Com plus news and gossip all over CyberTown
Mother’s Day is next Sunday and all I got in one lousy graphic in my Mother’s Day E-Cards section. That’s terrible.
If anyone can point me out (or better yet make) some nice 400 px wide graphics for Mother’s day e-Cards it would be most appreciated.
I’m short on cash this week, but I can put you in on that page in the acknowledgments sections.
Thanks, and may the Force be with you.
The following topics are still going strong with discussion:
Thanks for keeping it going everyone!

Someone posted this picture on the Pocono Forums. Supposedly the Virgin Mary appearing on an underpass in Chicago.
Well, you know… it didn’t quite look like the Virgin Mary. (Well, at least not any part of her body that we would normally see!) I was beginning to worry that maybe EVERYTHING looks like a woman’s vagina to me now.
It’s been so friggin’ long that I’m actually amazed that I remember what one looks like!

False Pregnancy – Who really wants to debate the morning-after pill?
“Why the silence? Because from a strategic standpoint, it’s a stinker of an issue for pro-lifers. In recent years, they’ve gained the upper hand by focusing relentlessly on late-term fetuses that look like babies.”
I love it!
Abortion can be argued to a certain degree because a life is involved. The Pro-Life crowd hasn’t figured out how to argue about “Morning After Pills” yet without looking like they’re trying to meddle in someone’s life. (Which we all know they are!)
I wish my life was as uncomplicated as those that have all the time in the world to concern themselves with other people’s sex lives… don’t you?
Beyond Belief! – Religious Ramblings
One of the best essays I have ever read. A Pagan named Father Crow breaks down religious belief and human nature. It boils down to Aristotle and his theory of dualism… either something is, or it isn’t.

I picked up a book that caught my eye on the way to my “Home away from home”. Blink : The Power of Thinking Without Thinking.

Benedict XVI: German cardinal elected pope
“Just call me ‘Der Pope’…” his eminence humbly insists.
VATICAN CITY – Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany, a hard-line guardian of conservative doctrine, was elected the new pope Tuesday evening in the first conclave of the new millennium. He chose the name Pope Benedict XVI and called himself “a simple, humble worker.”
Awwww yeah!!!! LET’S GET READY TO HUMBLLLLLLLLE!*
For those of you hoping for a kinder, gentler Pope who will ease up and allow birth control and priests marrying, and gay rights? FORGET IT!
No more of that sissy “Easter/Christmas” crap for you! I wouldn’t be surprised if the following decrees are canonized post haste:

The Blogosphere has probably got the biggest collection of Misanthropic dumbasses. Ever.
Yes. People suck. Most (not all) people are a waste of your time, energy and resources… but still, why do bloggers expect cyberspace to be any warmer and more cordial than the real world?
The message boards are no better. I’ve been studying this one guy who posts in one section dedicated to “Shameless Self-promotion”, contributes nothing anywhere else in the message board, encourages no one, and is the BIGGEST complainer when no one responds to him!
Boo. Effing. Hoo.
A-Lists have come and gone in the blog world… but there is always that “lesser person” out there who expects the entire world to link to them and shower this loser with adulation when they can only talk about the least-interesting subject in the world… THEMSELVES.
In case you didn’t learn this lesson when you were five: “If you want a friend, you have to BE a friend.” Same with the world of blogs… if you want people to visit your site regularly, you have to visit other people regularly.
Dumbasses.
Getting old doesn’t phase me a bit.
It’s that “death” shit at the end that irritates me.
I tried to sell my soul to the Devil the other day. He just looked at his watch and said “That’s ok, I’ll wait”.
In a lot of ways, I’m getting better. I’m able to grasp complicated concepts now, with the aid of Ginkgo Biloba and Vivarins, I’m sharper than ever. I used to hear for years “You look tired”, now people think I’m a hyperactive problem adult a la Robin Williams. I’m stronger now, in fact, I’m probably in better shape than I’ve been in decades… and I don’t even work out! I know things about women now that I WISH I had known as a teen (thanks for never being there for me, dad. You asshole).
Of course there’s my hair falling out, and communicating with so many of my old friends that are going to be “middle aged” in the next few years, reminding me that our heydays in the mid-80’s are gone forever.
Hell, I’ll be 40 in August… but I don’t feel like it.

The Last Pope: Examining Nostradamus and Malachy (No. 288)
I’ve been hearing a lot of rumors about old prophecies since Pope John Paul II’s death about him being the last Pope and Christianity fizzling out by the end of the 20th Century. Actually according to this book, and this conspiracy site, he is the next-to-last Pope. The link above interests me more, as Nostradamus predicts there would be five Popes after the controversial Pius XII. (JP2 was the fourth Pope after him)
