On my blog ad sidebar I have my very first ads for political candidates. Make sure to go read about Robert Lamutt and Nathan Tabor… especially if you’re in Georgia or North Carolina. Good candidates could always use some more financial help, and it’s the individual contributions that make the biggest difference.
Last call to sign up and as Frank J. fan before I send an e-mail out to my charter members along with the one time pads for reading the secret messages about me, Frank J. When I become rich and famous, I’ll make sure to remember you all (or, at least, pretend to). Only through your help can I achieve me goal of stealing Jonah Goldberg’s job.
It’s too late to try and enter to become a judge for the IMAO T-Shirt Babe Contest, but I’ll be looking over the tons of entries I got this weekend and announce the winner on Monday. As for the babes, this weekend is a good time to prepare your entries.
I realized I haven’t said anything about the Japanese hostages in Iraq, so I’ll leave that to Emperor Misha I.
Today is Good Friday. Some may think it odd to call the day commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus the Christ “good”, but it’s better than the old name: Why Did Those Pesky Jews Kill Our Jesus?! Friday.
Well, I had an Entenmann’s chocolate donut this morning and a couple cups of coffee, but, now that I remembered what the day is, that’s it until tomorrow. I will be going to a dinner for a friend’s birthday, but I guess I’ll just stick to bread and water (which will make it a cheap outing). And since it’s supposed to be a day of abstaining, this is the last I’ll post until tomorrow. See you later.
soooo, i can’t sign up. i keep getting a error that says i have not filled in a feild that i have clearly filled in. anyone else have that problem?
adam
Can’t sign-up either Adam. It keeps telling me the list is full.
Oh, and Frank. If it’s a day of abstaining, you need to give the hands a rest from more than just the keyboard my freind.
Frank J, since Sunday is Easter, how many rabbits should I sacrifice?
Also, if Chomps were to kill and eat Ronald McDonald, wouldn’t his cholesterol go up?
NARGNARGNARGNARG!
Frank, in that context we prefer to be called “Jooooooooos!” And speaking of which, shouldn’t it be matza (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matza) and water?

Happy day oh joy! I’m finaly a member of the fan club.
Now if we had official Frank J. liberal/seal beating clubs my life would be a little more complete.
Colombus, I meant that Jesus could be a contraction of Yehohanan as Mat is a contraction of Mathew.
Yeho+(hanan) but as it would be too long in the daily life to say Yehohanan then it becomes Yehos and then due to the deformations of the language Yehus. The h when said correctly sounds sh such it become Yes+hus = Jesus.
The scripture is a consequence of the death of Jesus, not of his life and most the words of the Christian Bible come from direct voice transmission and then lastly to the scripture. The name could have be little transformed due to local dialects which seems to be quite normal at this time.
And the name is not Yohanan but Yehohanan.
Ben means “the son of” I think and Hagkol would be the name of Yehohanan’s father. I don’t know the Hebrew traditions concerning the denomination of the people but someone have explained to me that Ben is the word to say “the son of”.
Yehohanan… wow Amphy. For someone to whom English is a second language, you’re pretty good at some Latin biblical names too. I’m impressed.
Jesus, from the Hebrew name “Yeshu’a” which means “YHWH is Salvation”. Called “Joshua” in the OT.
Have a great Easter weekend everyone!
Gasp!
Frank J. once thought monkeys were funny and not ruthless creatures of Satan!

Dave in Texas the names in the OT are transliterations of names, phonetical transliterations that are adapted to each language. John in English is Jean in French. Peter in English is Pierre in French.
Jeshu’a may have been adapted to mean salvation, but because the old priests did wait for a Messiah that they did not recognize in Jesus but that Christians might have adopted as a contraction of Yehohanan for the real name of Jesus to mean Salvation.
That was just an idea when reading the article anyway, I don’t have any knowledge in the language.
Holy Mary, Brian! That means at one point in time, my website was not the only conservative pro-monkey website. I’ll have to call the irrelevent Hague thingy about this.
Frank-
Are you going to post these ( political ) ads within 60 days of the election? That’d be cool, to be the first person jailed for free speech thanks to McCain-Feingold’s campaign finance law !
Ah, who needed that first ammendment thing anyhow…? /obvious sarcasm
Can’t we all just learn Hebrew rather than speculating about bad transliterations and what may or may not be a contraction of something else? Personally I was working on the assumption that when Reuters said “Yehohanan” it was just a typo for Yohanan (one less letter in Hebrew, probably same meaning). If it was truly the name it would be from Yeho-hanan (God favored, found favor, etc), a contraction along the lines of Yeho-shua (God saved, known as Joshua in English) and Yeho-shafat (God judged, a king of Judea), etc.
ahem… First!
sorry frank. funny stuff
soooo, i can’t sign up. i keep getting a error that says i have not filled in a feild that i have clearly filled in. anyone else have that problem?

I tried to enroll, but it never sent me the password even though it said my subscription was successful.
You’ll have to talk spacemonkey since I don’t run that.

You should read this: Ancient Jewish Man’s Remains Give Crucifixion Clues
The name of the man was Yehohanan Ben Hagkol. It sounds that Jesus could be the short name for Jehohanan…
–I joined the club a little while ago and nothing fantabulous has happened yet… when will it happen, Frank?
Happy day oh joy! I’m finaly a member of the fan club.

Frank, I’m sure the Pope would give you special dispensation to continute posting today…please?
Amphitryon – interesting, but Jesus in Hebrew is Yeshu’a or Yeshu, not Yohanan (which Reuters acurately translated to John).

Whine! The ADDREEESSS LLISSSTTT IS AWWWWWLLLLLLLWAAAYYYYS FULL!
I wanna be a fan.
It’s good to see other people are having problems setting up. Wait! That sounded mean. I’m sorry for your suffering ;).
Signing. Not setting. Maybe I’m just being kept out of the club because illiterate!
Hey Frank, there’s still some damn dirty pr0n spammers in your archives. I suggest wholesale IP banning, and possibly getting the feds on their arses…
Yehohanan… wow Amphy. For someone to whom English is a second language, you’re pretty good at some Latin biblical names too. I’m impressed.

I also got the “Address List Is Full” error. =(
Hope I don’t miss out on the one time pads…
Gasp!

HAHAHAHAHA I already signed up, I am an official Frank J. Fan Club Member. (evil laughter ensues)

Frank, I’ll become a fan when you’ll become a smartie.
And to become a smartie is the only way for me to link to IMAO… among other things such your videos, pictures and 100 things I wrote about you.
Holy Mary, Brian! That means at one point in time, my website was not the only conservative pro-monkey website. I’ll have to call the irrelevent Hague thingy about this.

Is Nathan the one Nathan who gave you the Wiskey bottle, I mean your friend ?

Colombus, when the Roman became Christians, they expected that all the Hebrews learn Latin.
I just wanted to point out that it was G-d, and not the jews who killed our Jesus. Man was merely the tool used. Keep up the funny.
It depends how you conceive God will.
