i guess there’s never been a better time to be a pig in the world today. whether you’re trying to become the next fashion icon (in leiu of Alisse’s post yesterday) or the next US President.

This week on ABC’s The View, conservative hostess Elisabeth Hasselbeck actually defended Barack Obama.

YES, i cant believe it too. Could it be that Hell has frozen over? Or is it more like the day pigs could fly?

you see for yourself here.

A quick recap of Lost, seasons 1 through 3, just in case you missed anything.

A few years back, one of the coolest things about living in Chico was that there was this dude, Donovan Phillips who paid college girls and local dirtheads like $500 to come to his studio and take a bunch of naked pictures, then he would sell them to amateur porn websites, or just use them on his own sizeable stable of web sites. This provided an unending stream of lulz for myself and other bored Synthesis employees, who would spend hours looking through these web sites looking for girls we knew so we could bookmark that shit and fap afterhours. Best of all, thanks to our Secret Data Mining Tool, this was all done for the all-time low price of FREE. But then one day the fun ended. Donovan Phillips, whose real name is Donny Pauling decided to give up his empire of local porn for a higher calling. He gave away his web sites and started getting pissed about porn. So he joined up with the folks at XXXchurch.com, which might sound scandalous but is actually just a bunch of dudes trying to exorcise the porn devil from America’s good Christian folk. From their website:

I guess deep down inside all we want is to know that everything is going to be all right. We ask ourselves the question…is there something wrong with me because I am struggling with pornography? With this issue comes a lot of shame and guilt. It’s a dirty little secret that you can’t let out and in the meantime you feel like pond scum.

At XXXchurch we want to let you know that you are loved by God and by the people involved in this ministry. You are not alone. You do not have to carry this burden any longer. The entire reason for having this website is to give people hope and to let them know that there is help.

Right now it comes down to a conscious decision to do something about it. We know it’s easy to simply click away and view porn sites. It’s free…it’s accessible…and everybody is doing it!! You can decide today to get honest about your life and where all this is heading. Do it today!

And this is fine. I’m down with being down with the King and all that. And besides, the amount of fame Donny Pauling stacked as Donovan Phillips is paling in comparison with his fame as Donny Pauling, Porn Avenger. Next week, he will be appearing on ABC’s Nightline, debating the merits of porn with none other than Ron Jeremy at Yale University. And Pauling thinks he got the best of Jeremy, and his partner on the pro-porn side, adult film star Monnique.

“I think we spanked them; I think we won,” Pauling said via telephone from his Corning home. “Their arguments were freedom of expression, but just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should.

I definitely recommend checking out Donny’s blog about his experiences here, especially his Porn Stories about the often untold personal costs of being involved in porn. Makes me glad those photos of me never got out…

So, I’m sad. I feel that my life has no purpose and I live week to week with nothing to look forward to–in that, there are still 140+ days until the next season of LOST starts.

By that time, I will be living in a different place with different people and my life will be, well, DIFFERENT. Either way, it’s pretty hard to go on with my life without that captivating television show that I follow religiously in hopes of figuring out “the whole story”…which of course never happens.

Well friends, THERE IS HOPE…

And it’s starting a week from this Sunday…or two weeks from yesterday, which ever you prefer. Nevertheless, I’m stoked. If you click the image above you can go to the site and watch the season preview…OMG, does it look amazing.

Don’t have Showtime?

Be like me: mooch off your friends (or siblings, in my case) that live near you and have Showtime. Make it like a “family” night, fun for all!

I know, I know, you don’t have to thank me for these ingenious ideas I have.
