Cut me some slack, I’m out of state right now and as such I haven’t been posting. I know everyone forgets this from time to time, but there used to be two other authors who actually did some goddamn work around here. I guess they always wanted to be one of those millions of blog failures out there, start something that people actually read and then bail the hell out when you realize you have to work at it.

Anywho, I just rely on the work of others, much like this tip I received from Douglas E. Fluffy. It looks like Florida is once again leading the way in ridiculous ideas fueled by Christ. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the proposed “I Believe” license plate

Rep. Ed Bullard, a Miami Democrat and a sponsor of the license plate, conceded that ‘’some people” may find something wrong with it, but he said it was a license plate for those people who may want something other than a plate that has a manatee or picture of the Challenger space shuttle.

That’s right, fuck those space traveling manatees. Aren’t manatees those ugly ass fish that are getting hit by boats all the time anyway? Who gives a shit? And the Challenger blew up, right? Fuck that, too.

The extra money earned from the sale of the ”I Believe” license plate would go to an Orlando based non profit called Faith in Teaching Inc. that says on its website that money from the plates would be used for grants to “continue faith based education for the youth of Florida.”

Well now it just got interesting. Faith in Teaching should start by teaching themselves how to make a website work. OOPS! If you are able to get in through a back door, be sure to read the thourough and compelling About Us section. I don’t know about you, but three non-committal, completely unspecific paragraphs certainly make me want to buy one of these plates so I can support their program.

In case you’ve forgotten, there is only one Splog approved specialty plate, so don’t even think about getting the JC plate.
