Drinking Liberally, 8/22: Armageddon Awaits!
Just a quick reminder that Armageddon or no, we’re still going to be Drinking Liberally at 18th Street and Lombard in Center City Philadelphia from 6-whenever PM! I hope you’ll join us, and if indeed God’s Fire does rain from the sky, or the 12th Imam appears, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster pelts us with the Mighty Meatballs of Punishment…
well, we can always enjoy the free wings and drink specials indoors, where there’s air conditioning. Make sure to tell a friend!
As the world ends around us, and we watch the righteous ascend to heaven thumbing their noses at those of us left below, make sure to ask Albert and Kim about the Meet the Candidates night last week. It’ll keep your mind off the explosions, the shrieks of the eternally damned, and lake of fire.
Also, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention this great band I saw a few weeks ago, La Resistance. It’s the creation of Chris DiPinto, formerly of Philly’s theatrical metal gods Wastoid. From what I understand La Resistance is the only explicitly left-wing, viruently anti-Bush 80s-metal band around: think Iron Maiden but politically aware. And, with a girl named Glo to Hell singing. They’re playing at the Tritone this Saturday as part of the Binge Festival, along with several crazy fringey stuff, and I figured I’d give some lefty musicians a shout-out.
That is of course, if the predictions above don’t come true, in which case all bets are off. This has gone on way too long, see y’all tomorrow.

Armageddon? Nothing to fret as long as you’re prepared…

Nothing like a false sense of security. This is like telling your children that if they fear monsters, they should turn on the lights as that makes them shrivel up and dissapear.
Armor of God. Lol.

They’ll protect you from Armageddon. But will they protect you from this?

Mikey from the Life Cereal ads was the original suicide bomber, blowing himself up with a deadly mixture of Pop-Rocks and Coke.
He is actually a martyr for the Mentos Militia and the Cola Cavalry which that kid represents.
