HOLY JESUS H. JUMPED-UP CHRIST ON A POGO STICK

[sspadowsky]

Cherry, George, and Sadie have all returned on the same day. Surely Burock, Emma, and Wreck cannot be far behind.

We all await your explanations for your AWOL-ness. >:

[Emu]

I thought Sadie had been back for a while.

[Chojin]

Where's cherry? :o

*Oh, just one post? ;< That's HARDLY enough material to beat off to.


But I'll try.

[James]

I can teach you how.

We need Jixby back. :(

[Mockery]

All things come full circle...

:chatter ESPECIALLY WITH BLACK HOLES LIKE THE I-MOCKERY FORUMS :chatter

[sadie]

i've always wondered what the h the h stands for.

[Carnivore]

Alas, it was but a fleeting visit.

[Helm]

Horatio?

In the early Church when everyone spoke Greek, the name Jesus was abbreviated to its first three letters, IHS. When the West converted to Latin with Jerome, they kept IHS with a handful of other Greek idioms (ICHTHUS, Kyrie Eleison, blah blah) even though most people had no idea what they meant. So, the I and the S were transfigured into Iesus and Salvatore (I forget if that's the right spelling), but the H was kept as posterity for whatever reason. Around the Reformation, people started making fun of it as a middle initial, since nobody could figure out what else it could mean.

Edit: I forgot to mention that there's a geek joke I heard long ago, saying that it stands for "Haploid". The joke being that he was formed with only a mother, so he has only one set of genetic data within him and thus he's haploid, as aposed to diploid like all normal mammals.

So, Jesus' name would be Jerry now? Interesting.....

Actually, I think it'd be Josh (from Yeshwuah). Jerome was the guy who translated the Bible into Latin.

[FurankuS]

I would've named him Merv.
