After Andy gives carte blanche for parodists to post stupid 'essays' his blessings to Ken's scholarly efforts, TeacherEd reveals his latest workimg. Look familiar, anyone?

The Bible says gluttony is a sin --> Christians are thin --> Atheists are fatimg. QED. Oh, also something about lesbians.

39

Well, this isn't going to end wellimg

37

Prognostication CP style: The START treaty is unlikely to pass thanks to Republicans.img Reality: The START Treaty Cloture vote passes 67-28 and, barring direct intervention by g0D, will probably be ratified Wednesday.
