I also watched a show tonight called The Venture Brothers, which is pretty new on Adult Swim. I meant to start watching it weeks ago, but I was out of town. Anywhoo, it was damn funny and gets my reccomends.

Hey there! Friend of <lj user=fflo> here ...
Don't mean to be picky, (and I know you didn't make the quiz) but that's Cheech. (us old stoners, you know, we know those things) : )
Thanks!
I found the quiz funny in it's many ironies; such as the fact that as a pagan I have little if any use for the whole "Jesus thing". Plus ALL foods in Jesus' time were organic, as chemical pesticides and fertilizers had not yet been invented.
