I just read this book titled The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss. It’s by far the best business/productivity book I’ve ever read. It’s all about cutting out the garbage that robs your time, and pursuing the things that matter.
I think maybe I liked it so much because I’ve been trying to avoid a “real job” so hard for the last couple years.
There’s a lot of really important, counter-intuitive ideas laid out in this book. Like, for instance: Busyness is a form of laziness to avoid doing the important things you need to do. I have days where I check my email 10+ times a day, and get nothing done.
If you’re interested in this kind of stuff, and I suspect a lot of Pastafarians are, check out Tim’s blog here. Or go buy the book here.















They dont need Ice, they have plenty of that around them.
What they really need is this pure, frozen water I have in the back of this truck! Not only does it keep you cool and shady in the long, bright, summer, but it also quenches your thirst!

Yes, I am. At forty-one and fed up with the way Georgie-boy is fucking us over daily, I am more than ready.

PLATFORM
.
1. Energy self-sufficiency: explore all options
.
2. Legalize prostitution: regulate and tax as needed
.
3. Legalize marijuana: even our own FDA said it was not a health threat
.
4. Let the UN do the UN’s job: The US is NOT the world police
.
Still working on other platform ideas
.
Vote Pastafarian

I had a look that link and when I clicked on the Penquin within the article, I found no mention of His Noodlyness! To wit

.
Now I distinctly remember these quotes, linked below, referencing the Penguin as being a the more than likely descendant of “The Midgit”.

What I want to know is:
How is such an oversight possible on the Uncylopedia Penguin article?

@ BCA – I like your platform ideas! (No offense to Peter Popoff, who is also running for president!) I was kinda fishing to see if you were him but it appears not! (You never can tell when the regulars around here are playing one or two or six more people!) I will be voting Pastafarian! I’m fed up with politics as usual in this country.

@ WN – Shame on them! I didn’t think to click on the penguin link (shame on me!). Wench Beth needs to get after them with her pot of spagetti noodles!

To Bearded Clam Admirer… I second Rowdy’s thoughts! You have an excellent platform. I agree with you on all counts! You have my support as well, although I need to ask if you’d be willing to go for vice-president (Peter Popoff’s running mate)? I kinda promised Peter that I’d vote for him already.

She is willing to give it up to you if you want it. Keep in mind that this is the Pastafarian Party and it will be much different than usual! It was not meant as an insult, I promise!

No, no, BCA — the vice-president of the Pastafarian Party is extremely important!! You are the right hand man!! (Just look at B*sh and Ch*ney!! Sorry for using profanity there.) Besides, if you don’t accept the VP nomination then it’s going to have to be me or Alchemist… then we’re really talking trouble! (hee hee)

Incidendally, that paragraph had the worst spelling out of the entire article. I found only one spelling mistake, outside of that section.

Hello all,
I wasn’t sure where to post this but since there’s some activity here I thought it’d be best. I submitted some FSM artwork to Mr.Henderson back in Feb. I worked on the artwork over the course of a month and was proud to present the finished piece to him in hopes that he would actually use it for something. After sending emails and even uploading the artwork through his Submit Art option on this site, I never heard a word from him. From what I gather, this is not uncommon because he is very busy. That’s certainly understandable.
What bothers me is that since I stopped attempting to contact him, he has posted other fsm artwork consisting mostly of someone else’s artwork with the fsm Photoshopped in. My ancient piece of “discovered” fsm artwork is all originally and I worked very hard on it. Anyways, I just wanted to vent here I guess.
If you want to see the artwork check it out at http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/50245018/
Thanks.
