There's a new issue of The Holy Observer. out.

Where The Onion has gotten boring, The Holy Observer still brings a smile to my normally jaded and bitter face.

Highlights for this issue include:

FOUR BILLIONTH APOCALYPTIC SIGN
According to eschatological experts, the four billionth sign of the apocalypse has been discovered in South Bend, IN, and it's a hairpiece. Specifically, it's the toupee of Pastor Daniel Harding, which parishioner Dale Ellis described as "cataclysmically bad."

Apple CEO Likens Microsoft to Medieval Catholic Church
Just when it seemed the ongoing clash between Microsoft and Apple Computers had calmed, Apple CEO Steve Jobs launched a harsh verbal attack on the Windows world, calling his trendy California company "the Protestant Reformation of the computer world" and likening Microsoft's business practices to the abuses of the medieval Roman Catholic church...

When asked if all the controversy made him feel like a modern-day Martin Luther, Jobs smiled and said, "Just show me the pope's door, and I'll hang a note on it for him. I'll walk all the way to Seattle to do it. I've got way more than 95 reasons why Microsoft is evil!"

When another reporter inquired about the bracelet, Jobs winked and replied, "What would Jesus do? I think the answer is clear. He'd go out and buy a new liquid-cooled, dual processor G5."

Microsoft CEO Bill Gates responded with good humor. When told of the WWJD comment, Gates quipped, "Those things cost what, about four thousand dollars? And Jesus was a carpenter, right? It would take a miracle for him to come up with that kind of cash!"

Comments: We had a lady in one of our home fellowship groups who would pray for ''the bowels'' each week. We were never certain whose bowels they were. Hers? A friends? We never knew. They were ''the'' bowels so maybe the answer is more comic.

Oh. And The Daily Farce is still good too!
