By Saturn Rings

This stunning photograph of Saturn took me a few mineuts to workout. The farside of the ring which is just above the large moon can be seen disappearing behind Satarn's dark side. From the ever brilliant Boston Big Picture.

Religion Explained, Volume 1

A long time ago in India
this king had about a hundred wives
and they all hated each other.
Mean
They also hated on their step-sons.
One in particular they messed up bad
He had to leave. The king was sad.
This was his favorite son
or eldest,
whatever.
His name was Rama.
I think he was a God of sorts
but not at the moment.
He wondered off into the jungle
and he met a lovely lady
called Sita.
She was a hottie.
They wondered about in the jungle
doing lots of the magical sex.
Then this demon came along
and fell in love with Sita
he stole her or insulted her or something.
But he had twelve heads,
for real.
This pissed off Rama something bad,
he was angry and chased after the demon.
The demon ran away.
Oh no.
The demon went to an island.
I don't know what the island was called,
but now its called Sri Lanka.
Lets assume he had Sita with him,
against her will.
He was still cussin' her though.
The island was very far away,
Rama was all bollocks
and turned around.
Then Hanuman, the Monkey God came along,
God of the frikkin' Monkeys.
Hanuman was good
and made all the monkeys into a bridge
which is kind of bad.
Rama crossed the bridge
with all his friends,
who he had all along,
and had a fight with all of the
demons friends.
I think this went on for years.
Thousands were killed.
Lots.
Then Rama chopped of all the demons heads.
Blood was every where
Now he could go back home,
for some reason.
He took Sita with him
and said only nice things to her.
Everyone was happy that Rama was back
they made lots of candles
loads of candles
and lamps
everywhere.
Lighting the path.
Rama and Sita were married.
It was awesome.

HAPPY DIWALI EVERYONE!
