The Meaning of Easter (according to the Book of Flip)

I know that Easter is supposed to be the most important Catholic holiday, but let's be serious - there's not much to get excited about. Except for one thing, of course. The Ten Commandments. I don't care that it's eight hours long, that the love triangle involves two siblings and two cousins or that Moses' beard at the end looks less realistic than that of my local mall Santa Claus.

The best part of the movie is the first couple of hours when Moses is a carefree and popular prince who thinks he is Egyptian and is in love with the future Queen (his cousin). Although the following statement may be blasphemous, it must be said - I always wish that he would just tell the Pharaoh that he denounces his Hebrew heritage. Then, he would have been free to marry Nefertiri and could free the slaves once his uncle died if he wanted.

Anyway, just thought I would share. Peace be with you.

I was inspired by a social media meeting. During said meeting, Unusual mistook a tape recorder for a cell phone. We did not belong.

Nothing gets me in the spirit of Easter like Jesus Christ Superstar. Something about those crazy 70s hipsters that probably wound up in porn gets me eager for Easter Sunday.
