Help me beat Justin! March 31, 2007
Foolishness , 10 comments by Rosita, Loxy, Esther t., The younger brother Jesse, Token-Black-Girl, Maria, Cel, and He Says.Friends, I need your help! As I type this I’m sitting laptop to laptop with Justinee Weanie and he’s laughing at me. When Justin laughs at me it’s like an itch in my soul. Help me scratch that itch! You see, Justin has opened my eyes to the world of Awstats and since then, he feels the need to let me know that his blog (for some strange reason) gets more visits than mine, he forces me to open Awstats frequently and then points out the myriad of ways that he beats me in daily, weekly, and monthly stats! (On the bright side, I did beat him in February and my screen is brighter than his.)
Help me folks, I’m counting on you to help me beat Justin during the month of April. Spread the word, bring your friends, and do the right thing by visiting my blog more often. I promise I’ll make it more interesting, I’ll even put up pictures of babies if that’s what it takes — I’m desperate here! I’m not doing this for advertising purposes, if you’ve ever had Justin laugh at you you’ll understand what is driving me to issue this desperate plea - it’s starts off very small, like a shrill giggle, and then gets louder and louder until people start asking why he’s laughing, and then he has to tell them the reason - which is, of course, that his blog gets more hits than yours. And then, whenever you’re hanging out in the kitchen with cool people that you’re trying to impress, he has to give you a little snort and remind everyone that his blog gets more hits than yours. He’ll just interject it into the conversation, like:
“Oh yeah, it was gorgeous weather today - which reminds me, I get more hits on my blog than Jules!”
Its ouchie, and it’s not right — because he hardly ever posts! I’m putting myself out here, fellows! Now come through for me and together lets make 77ZI a force that can stand up to Justinee Weanie like David to Goliath, and topple him a blow! I’d like to make a special call to all of Justin’s siblings out there - now is your chance to get back at him for all the awful things he did to you as the bully older brother and boycott his blog (and visit mine more, please). Now, I know you’ll still want to visit paones.com to see pictures of Violet, she’s cute and I don’t blame you, so I came up with a handy solution: for those of his siblings who live within driving distance of each other, just make it a fun family event to all congregate at one house, crowd around one computer, and give paones.com a quick gander. I suggest you do this no more than once a month.
Need for mutation March 30, 2007
The Good Stuff , 6 comments by Junni, Jaydee, Chuck, and Florecita.
The church system has always been
a prime example to us of what not to
become…everything about the supposed
“Christian world” just wreaks of failure and antiquity.
In the letter “Attack” grandpa said that one of the
main reasons for their failure
is that they have been set back and
put on the defensive by simply trying to
preserve what they have and
stop the bleeding. “They are dying without heirs,
because they have committed genocide in not
bearing fruit in this generation.”
Have you noticed how up in arms and on the
defensive we get when some fool chooses to dis
our way of life? But, who was it that gave him
such liberty to do so in the first place? Why is
it that we weren’t we attacking his pathetic way
of life before he had a chance to attack ours?
Have you ever noticed how we tend to measure
ourselves (and everything we do) up to the
system? We try and convince ourselves that we’re
cool and avoid the inevitable conclusion that, in
the eyes of the system, we are and always will be…
freaks! Why are we too often in a position where we
feel intimidated and inferior? Why have we allowed
them to tell us what to do, when it
should be the other way around?
Have you ever noticed how we tend
to link the word “revolution” to our
past? …those where the days when
we used to do “crazy” things, when
the world was scared s*_less of us,
when we were actually dangerous…
a “disease” (for to them that’s
what we are) eating away at
their established disorder.
But now, with time, the system
has developed certain antibodies
and, where we (the second
generation) should have mutated
and launched a doubly virulent
attack we have rested in the
achievements of our fathers and,
in many ways, been neutralized.
We shout “revolution for Jesus” and
pat ourselves on the back, thinking
“we’re such rebels,” yet never really
coming too close to true danger.
Although fellowship is an
important aspect of our lives and
unity, you can see how easy it
is to drift off into the “shire”
of our wonderful “me-thou-and no-
other” when we should be out
inflicting damage on the enemy.
I think (…and this may be a bit
risky) that sometimes we put too
much into entertaining ourselves,
so that we completely lose touch
with what’s happening. We have talent, but
often lacking in purpose and identity.
Are we desperate in finding
ways to employ this talent
as a weapon? Are we active in
creating, promoting, infesting, transmitting,
attacking, invading, spreading, activating
what we have? Some of the things we used to
do 20 or 30 years ago just aren’t that
shocking anymore. In this day we need be
even more active and aggressive if we hope
to wake them from their stupor.- Contagious mag
Spiritual warfare simplified March 28, 2007
The Good Stuff , 2 comments by Token-Black-Girl and Lisa.This is my new memory project and quickly shaping up to be my favorite quote of all times:
If you’re caught by surprise by the Enemy, do whatever you need to do to get the victory. Look around you and grab the first pointy object you see, and start swinging away. Raise your hands, praise the Lord, sing songs, receive new key promises, quote John 3:16, or just yell “Jesus!” over and over until the Enemy is lying in front of you in a giant heap of arms, legs, and pointy tails. Keep swinging away, and don’t stop until you’re sure you’ve gotten the victory!
–ML 3626
It’s a revelation that I’ve had too many times to count and always ends up with me pounding my forehead with both fists and shouting something to the effect of “Jules, you are retarded!”
If I could only consistently remember: The Enemy is defeated once you start fighting.
Grrrrr…….
Infiltration March 25, 2007
The Latest , 1 commentI am the ZEALOUS in her 77 inches.
Beware!
P.S. Does it count as an infiltration if the person whom you are infiltrating is aware of it and is in fact sitting right next to you? ….
either way
Beware!
Yup, shameless plug March 21, 2007
The Latest , 2 comments by Sonia.It’s really hoppin’ on 77 inches these days. Personally, I go more for the reclusive “Has she posted yet? Oh please, let it be so” approach m’self, and try to achieve that here on 77 zealous inches (something to do with fond hearts and absence etc). But sometimes things just come in a rush and there’s nothing I can do about it. Blame Canada.
A little advertising never hurt a website, so here’s a FAQ about BOB Report - just up today, coming to you along with a little request to lend a link to BOB if you can. After all, if you live in North America, BOB links to you! It’s only fair!
Thanks friends.
My complaint about Chuck
Foolishness , 3 comments by CHUCK.Eheh. Heh. I thought this was funny. I stumbled across an interesting website that generates complaints. All I did was put “Chuck” in the the “first name” field and whaddya know? There’s actually some very insightful stuff in here. Blows yer mind!
My inquiries, necessarily hasty and perfunctory as I write this letter to meet a deadline, have elicited a wealth of information about Chuck. I want to share this with you because Chuck’s more than foolish. She’s mega-foolish. In fact, to understand just how foolish Chuck is, you first need to realize that I frequently wish to tell her that you don’t know how tempted I am to slap the stuffing out of her. But being a generally genteel person, however, I always bite my tongue. When I hear her say that her activities are on the up-and-up, I have to wonder about her. Is she thoroughly wanton? Is she simply being morally crippled? Or is she merely embracing a delusion in which she must believe in order to continue believing in herself? I once asked Chuck that question — I am still waiting for an answer. Well, I refuse to get caught up in Chuck’s “I think … I believe … I feel” game. Okay, I admit that most people are loath to admit that appeasement is not the answer. But if, five years ago, I had described a person like Chuck to you and told you that in five years, she’d tear down everything that can possibly be regarded as a support of cultural elevation, you’d have thought me choleric. You’d have laughed at me and told me it couldn’t happen. That said, let me continue. To end this letter, I would like to make a bet with Chuck. I will gladly give her a day’s salary if she can prove that it’s inappropriate to teach children right from wrong, as she insists. If Chuck is unable to prove that, then her end of the bargain is to step aside while I foster mutual understanding. So, do we have a bet, Chuck?
(Seriously now) Launch Steph! March 19, 2007
The Latest, Stuff from Steph , 3 comments by George, Ruthie, and Joykie.My awesome big sister has been on the field of South Africa for over a year now. She does all manner of godly Family stuff and makes all manner of sacrifices and if you haven’t met her, take my word for it, she’s The Bomb on pretty much every level! In addition to being The Bomb, she’s also a slightly cracked nut, and as such, she’s determined that she’s going to get four of the teens in her Home to Wordstock IV.
Well, actually the Lord told her to, so blame Him. Which brings me to the point of this post and that is; help Launch Steph and her young Paduans to Wordstock! Yes, I know its unoriginal, and she didn’t ask me to do this, but if you can find it in your heart to send a few coins her way, I know the Lord will repay you in marvelous ways. I’m just gonna put it out there and say that they need $9,000 (see what I mean by cracked nut?) for tickets and fees. If there’s any way you can help towards that, you’ll have made four teens on the field four eternally grateful teens on the field! You can contact her to arrange the transfer of the fruits of your generosity at write2steph@gmail.com
And if you can’t send mulah, can you at least pray for them? Really, tell your friends, start a prayer chain, pray for it after devotions and during get-out and any time you think about it. Claim those really grandiose keys, the ones that include words like “no impossibilities”, “supernatural”, and “beyond imagination”. If they’re going to make it, they’re going to need UBER amounts of prayer and I’m counting on you!
Thanks guys! You’re a wonderful Family and if you’re not in The Family then by golly, join us as soon as you can so you can be part of it too! Amen?
They’re so cute! How can you refuse?

The Latest , add a commentYup, our resident Super Sexual band now has a name! Finally! Not only a name, but a website as well - these guys are outta control - what’s next, an album? For never having actually heard their music, I think I’m pretty much their biggest fan - notice that I was the first to comment. Thank you!
Expect wondrous things from Red Sky.
I like this quote March 7, 2007
The Good Stuff , add a comment“More prayers‚ spiritual action, and love rise to Me from most of your beds than from most church buildings in the world.” (3622)
It then goes on to say “Make a temple of your bedroom today….”
There, its in the Word! I was right all along! I think I’ll go take some more temple time now.
