On the lighter side...

[RevCheesehead]

I don't know about you, but I'm desperately in need of a little levity around here. Here's something I got from Sojourners today: their "April Fools" edition.

EDITORS' NOTE

WARNING: The contents of this "April Fools SojokeMail" are entirely satirical

...Except for the ads in gray boxes. While Sojourners cares deeply about the serious issues of our day, we also recognize the tonic value of a good laugh and a well-aimed spoof. The ancient roots of April Fools Day even included slaves ruling their masters and mocking the king. So in that spirit of subversive humor we offer this equal-opportunity satire - and promise that we'll return to our usual docket of thoughtful and inspiring commentary next week.
