Saturday, December 06, 2003 Christmas and Wierd Gifts Check out my Amazon.com Wish List. Buy me a Christmas present! :-) Speaking of Christmas presents, you've got to see this to believe it: a company is now marketing a "Baby Jesus Doll." Yes, you read that right. The doll comes with a glow-in-the-dark halo and since "Jesus loves all children regardless of size, color or creed, we are offering our dolls in Anglo, African American, Dark Hispanic & Latin." But unless I'm on crack (possible), the African American and Hispanic dolls are exactly the same... and the only difference in the other two is eye/hair color. That's pretty pathetic. Couldn't a white person have dark hair and eyes too? And what about the Asians? I want an Asian Jesus doll! [/end rant] Actually I don't, but the fact that it's missing is annoying.
Final wierdness on the doll: it comes with a card that reads: "I don't talk, I just listen... I don't cry, but please hold me... I don't walk, so please carry me... I love you, please love me... My name is Jesus." I won't even start on the potential problems with that. "The 'BABY JESUS' DOLL© helps a child to remember that Jesus is not just for Christmas but for everyday of our life." Nice aim, but scary product. Word of the Day: Frowzy, adj.: 1. Unkempt; slovenly. 2. Having an unpleasant smell; musty. ^ Top | 12:27 AM | | |
