Some people just don't understand the pleasure of looking at booty.

Reminds me of the Madam's Organ mural in DC.

Make him walk the plank, in a leather jock strap. No jacket.

If he thinks that statue is soft core porn I'm surprised he hasn't keeled over and died of an apoplexy long since by turning on his TV or, god forbid, the internets.

I like how the priest backtracks from calling it "soft porn" to "if there's a definition of that, I'd call it soft porn," in case anyone was listening closely. In the next moment he was on the other side of a window, receding into the distance, calling out, "Soft porn? How do you spell that? Never heard of it, never in my life!"

If you think soft porn is bad, try the soft roe, padre.

Skookill? Huh, I'd wondered how that was pronounced.

Oh, um, yeah. Pirate lady. Reminds me of a cigar store Indian.

Bloody blustering busybodies brandishing bibles before bounteous booty. Bull!

I thought the very act of "cursing" was considered witchcraft, and therefore heretical, by the Catholics?

My only complaint is that they left out the nipples.

She looks so serene and handsome to be a pirate.

We used to have a carved wooden Indian in a restaurant I worked. The Indian had a slain deer around his neck. It would have worked but the deer's head was upright as it were still alive. That always cracked me up.

It's one of the things I noticed in my days as an evangelical Christian that contributed to my departure -- many denominations claim to view witchcraft as evil, but they then do that sort of thing all the time. They just call them "prayers" instead of "spells."

There's an important theological distinction between the two (prayer is ostensibly supplicative, while spellcasting is manipulative), but I've seen a lot of preachers and evangelists wield these "prayers" in anything but a supplicative way, like they're trying to force choke someone before summoning the fingertip lightning.

Not all are this way, mind you, but I've seen it a lot, across several denominations.

Too much free time. Put that guy to work on something constructive.

The priest said he won't let the matter drop. He might visit the statue and pray for it's removal.

Yeah, I'll bet he will.

Yeah, but the evil is strong there, so it might take several visits and much prayer, possibly in private.

A check for the priest's fingerprints on said bodacious booty-weilding broad might be revealing.

I'd like to make her "walk" my "plank."

arrrrrrrrr

Or walking down the street!

You mean walking down the busy main drag (long pause, single car coasts by.)
