This fsm bead was spotted on ebay:
I think it looks kind of like a frog. It’s currently at $8.53 with two days remaining. You can view the auction here.

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American

How on earth did they make that masterpiece?! I’m off to view the auction RIGHT NOW.

Ok, I’m back from the auction. That FSM bead is amazing. You could make a necklace out of it, but it’d be a little bit messy to do an earring(s). Oh, and the artist’s name is Nikki! Sound familiar?! ;)

“The Kansas State Board of Education has changed the state science standards once again, this time to take out language questioning evolution. This turnaround comes fast on the heels of the ouster given this past election to the ultra-conservative Board members who originally introduced the language. ‘Science’ has also been re-redefined as ‘a human activity of systematically seeking natural explanations’ (the word ‘natural’ had been previously stricken from the definition). If you’d like to see the new standards, a version showing all additions and deletions is available from the KS DOE’s website (PDF).”

Not this Nikki. I agree with Prophet Bobby, in that I too think it looks a little froggy. It’s the thought that counts.

I knew it wasn’t you, Wench Nikkiee, because the artist was from the U.S., but I thought it was a funny coincidence :) Or maybe you *are* a famous glass artist and haven’t told us yet! Praise be to the FSM!

The FSM is green? Maybe it’s that organic spinach spaghetti you get at the health food store.

I’m definitely buying that.
The least they could have done is NOT made it green.

Probably the FSM can appear to us in any color He chooses. I think the green is cool!

The FSM is white, the background is green because it happened to be the closest glass…. I felt inspired. :)
I don’t think I’m quite a famous glass beadmaker yet, but thanks for the kudos.
Any suggestions for a better background color, anyone?

Nice craftmanship. Must be that missing link between that retarded fish frog thing and the FSM proving Pastafarian evolution by Unitelligent Design. But then what do I know, I’m just a beer-guzzling smug assclown of the evilutionist conspiracy.

Nikki the Bead Maker,
The problem isn’t the background colour.
I think the hole through the bead is putting Bobby and Beth in mind of a frog.
.
I can’t quit tell the scale but I think your subject matter & handiwork are very fine.
.
You could make a pendant (e.g. hole at top) that would look very fine.
.
It’s great to see how much art is inspired by the FSM.

Nikki the Bead Maker,
.
I’ve been to the auction now so I know the terminology.
Yes, the stringer work is very fine, very fine indeed.
.
You’ve gone for the FSM ICTUS there, but could you try something representational.
.
There was a lovely sliver necklace somewhere on the site.
.
A couple of meatballs and some stringer work would obscure the hole and look fantastic.
.
I also notice you’ve used the word Mandrel. I like that word.
.

Thanks for all the tips – purple would be lovely, too. :)
I tend to wear a lot of beads on a sterling chain – the way this one is weighted, it would hang correctly that way without being made into a pendant. It’s about an inch long, and yes, I could make them with the hole going up and down, made into a wire-wrapped pandant, too… (Or earrings, etc…)

Bobby, I told Cassy that she should make some FSM items from polymer clay. (Did you know she does that professionally? She even teaches classes and publishes articles about polymer art.) She was concerned about doing it without your permission; I told her I thought you wouldn’t mind. Besides, I know she’ll give freebies to the family!

The bead is awesome, but how did our noodly lord get conjunctivitis (pink eye)? Oh, well, eyedrops can probably sort it out.

Ahoy! I’m not sure where else to post something like this, but I spotted the FSM in a webcomic yesterday. I was browsing SmackJeeves and ran into this…

I found it a bit amusing. I love things that make fun of religion.

@Storm Petrel – Sorry if this is very late :) Not been on this thread for a while.
‘Twas a deserved win. Can’t really complain about it :(
At least the Irish didn’t do to us (well, the English anyway) what we did to them at Croke Park.
Our history isn’t easy reading alas :(
