mytopo.com

Found a link to this site the other day, mytopo.com. Really nice aerial photos of just about anywhere. We ordered one as a christmas gift, awesome big poster size photo with title and everything. They also make topographical maps.

Turns out the photo I ordered had an edge on one side where it went out to the ocean. I didn’t notice this when ordering and was kinda bummed about it. I dropped them a note last night and low and behold they responded and are sending me a new poster at no charge.

So suffice to say, I think they rock. Check them out, very cool, very nice quality, very nice folks.

Unitarian Universalist Jokes

I was raised a UU, and even in 2nd grade I needed to come up with a quick summary of what UU’s believe, so I started telling friends it Unitarianism was like believing all the religions rolled into one. That seemed sufficient, most kids what stop asking questions at that point. Even now when discussing any religions with friends I use my updated version, “I was raised a Unitarian so i’m equally ignorant of all religions'”

As part of my ongoing quest to try to figure out what it is that I do believe, and what it means to be a UU, I have been collecting UU jokes over the years from e-mails, newsgroups and now websites. I’ve had a page on my website with these for years, I just figure it’s time to move that part of my site in here. I also edited it and added a few new ones that I’ve heard in the past few years.

There are lots more UU jokes out there now, in fact there are several websites that have more UU jokes.

Below is a longer list of UU jokes that I’ve found amusing, but I’ll post my favorite one that I first heard while going to YRUU conferences in the NY Metro district ’83-’87:

How many UUs does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None. They screw in sleeping bags in the Church basement.
