         <title>Happy Easter! </title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="easter2.jpg" src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/easter2.jpg" width="284" height="162" /><br><br>Because if there's one thing Jesus understands, it's how hard it is to get out of bed on the Sunday after Good Friday. Am I right, people? Go ahead, sleep in. How much different does the sun look at 6am than 10am? Besides, it's Easter it's not like there are gonna be presents or anything. Maybe some candy and eggs, but nothing cool like a racing set or a Barbie.</p>]]></description>

<p><img alt="Bootleg Simpsons Finger Puppets!!!" src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/bootlegsimpsonsfingerpuppets.jpg" width="448" height="321" /></p>

<p>Dat's right. We don't give a rat's ass what Matt Groening or FOX thinks!!! We just went out and bought us some damn bootleg Simpsons finger puppets cause we're baaad asses!!! (Bootleg Simpsons finger puppets model's identity protected cause he's not a bad ass. At all. He just has pretty hands. Which is kind of a waste when you're modeling finger puppets when you think about it, really. The fingers are all covered up. Crap, we could have done this ourselves without shelling out a high two figures for the hand model. Dammit!)</p>]]></description>

<p>Hey! It's Valentine's time! And in the current VGG tradition of barely updating this site with old content, ghost-ship style, here's another bit of holiday fun from a former day of what we assumed was glory. </p>

<p><a href="http://www.vgg.com/cards/">Valentine Cards</a>, of the disappointing virtual variety, suitable for sending to an alleged sweetie as your way of saying, "I barely care about this holiday– for eternity, my love, eternity!"</p>]]></description>

         <title>Santa ONLY Smokes Chesterfields. </title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Much has been written about the mythic figure of Santa Claus, but one question remains. What brand of cigarettes does Santa prefer? Or to put it another way: WWSS? What would Santa smoke? Here's your answer folks: Chesterfields! So if you choose to smoke, and you want Santa to come to YOUR house, why not forgo the milk and cookies, and leave out a carton of Santa' favorite brand o' smokes, Chesterfield! Hey, Santa dropped the pipe ages ago, my friend. Do you know how hard it is to load a pipe in a crowded, jostling sled while rocketing through the air past the speed of sound? Santa ruined many a pair of good pants that way. He almost switched to dip, but then some elf turned him on to the smooth rich flavor of Chesterfields, the cigarette that really pleases your T-Zone!</p>

         <title>I Can Has Meme?!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Dear Santa,</p>

<p>Hello, it's The Van Gogh-Goghs again. We've been very, very good this year. We didn't get into ANY fights with crystal meth users in public parks, we didn't steal ANY high school mascot costumes, and didn't even so much as PLAN to firebomb Scientologist buildings. So Santa, because we've been so good this year, we wanted to ask you for a very special present. No, not a puppy. We know that we need to wait until we're older and more responsible before we can handle a puppy. No, what we would dearly, DEARLY love this Christmas is if just once, just ONCE, we could spark a World Wide Web-wide meme. An honest to God, out of control, annoying, meaningless meme on the scale of the Hampster Dance, "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" or the LOLcats. Oh please please PLEASE PUH-LEASE!!! It can be our Christmas AND birthday present!! We won't want anything for our birthday if you get us this!!!<br />
Honest!!! </p>

<p>We even have the perfect image for it! A piece of cardboard from some cheap, cheap foreign child's bowling toy with a tragically and hilariously misspelled sound effect! Just take a look, and see if you don't agree! <br />
<a href="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/bigpoooooon.png" Target="NEW"><img src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/poooooon.png" align="middle"></a><br />
(click to enlarge)</p>

<p>So, please Santa, we've give so much to the Internet: <a href="http://www.furnitureporn.com">Furniture Porn</a>, <a href="http://www.fakebands.com">The Rocklopedia Fakebandica</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFJ0TItnfP8&e">Violated By Bears Man</a>, and a <a href="http://www.vgg.com/ee/ee_022101_hearingaid.html">fake proposal for free hearing aids that blast you with ads that yet people somehow think is a real product</a>. Isnt' it time that the Internet gave back to us, just a tiny, little, eentsy-weentsy bit? We'll be your best friend for life!! You won't have to give us a present ever again, ever!</p>

<p>Sincerely,<br />
The Van Gogh-Goghs<br />

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The Van Gogh-Goghs are tired of hearing about how horribly wrong your holiday dinner went with your family and friends.  Judas Priest, people! How hard is it to sit down for an hour or three and eat and act like civilized doofi?  We here at the Van Gogh-Gogh Institute of Having a Dignified Meal Once a Year want to show you all how proper people enjoy a holiday feast. Watch and learn! </p>

         <title>WTF Friday - Love and Marriage</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/PlainTalkAboutLoveAndSex.PNG" alt="Plain Talk About Love And Sex" align="right"><br />
This WTF Friday salutes Love and Marriage, 1950s Christian Sex Manual Style!!! Contrary to popular belief Jesus, is totally cool with you knockin' da boots- as long as it's with your wife. In this booklet, <i>Plain Talk about Love and Sex for Christian Young People</i>, the good William W. Orr A.B., M.A., Th.B., D.D. presents us with a few choice paragraphs:</p>

<p><br />
<img src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/lovingcaution.PNG" alt="Loving Caution" align="left"></p>

<p><BR><BR><BR><BR><br />
Aw COME ON!!! You spend the whole book telling them to wait for the wedding night, and then you STILL want them to slow down!? No wonder your religion's losing ground to Wicca. <BR></p>

<p></p>

<p><img src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/sexwackey.PNG" alt="Plain Talk About Love And Sex" align="left"></p>

<p><BR><BR><BR><BR><br />
Remember- this was written decades before <i><a href="http://www.maximonline.com/">Maxim</a></i> magazine or <i><a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0810709/">Pants-Off Dance-Off</a></i> even existed! But garsh! So it's the "age of the brassiere?" hunh? Oh, that poor, poor old man- I only hope God called him home before the 1960s destroyed every last ounce of hope he had in humanity. Also, you must now go and start a band called "Sex Wackey." Bonus points if it's Christian rock. <BR></p>

<p></p>

<p><img src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/found_art/sexnectar.PNG" alt="Plain Talk About Love And Sex" align="right"></p>

<p><BR><BR><BR><BR><br />
"The sex nectar will never lose its tangy zest." Wow.  I think this passage means that you're supposed to swallow.  I could be wrong. Also, you must now go and start a band called "Sex Nectar." Bonus points if it's Christian rock. <br />

         <title>Halloween 2007</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>It's time again for the world's greatest celebration of freeloading and panhandling -- Halloween.  This is a special time of the year when kids of all walks of life -- not just poor kids -- can unashamedly knock on neighbors' doors and beg for food.</p>

<p>But Halloween isn't just for kids. Adults experience the joy of giving.  Grown-ups can feel good about themselves, knowing that at least one of the kids who stopped by trick or treating was probably poverty stricken and those two miniature tootsie rolls are more than enough to make up for looking the other way while we pass the soup kitchen on the way to work.</p>

<p>This holiday season, VGG.COM proudly presents our tribute to Halloween</p>

<p>First off, take a look at what you will need to make your <A HREF="http://www.vgg.com/halloween/hauntedhouse.html">Haunted House Complete.</A></p>

<p>Need a few ideas for that pumpkin carving contest check out these scary and sick <A HREF="http://www.vgg.com/halloween/pumpkincarving.html">Jack O' Lantern Designs</A>.</p>

<p>If you want to collect your fair share of pity candy this Halloween, you might want to consider these tips for <A HREF="http://www.vgg.com/halloween/crapcostumes.html">Pity Candy Costumes</A>.</p>

<p>If all that were not enough to keep an ample amount of chili in your trousers this Halloween then read the Van Gogh-Goghs' <A HREF="http://www.vgg.com/halloween/raven.html">Find and Replace Classic: The Raven.</A></p>]]></description>

         <title>MP3 Monday - Blog Action Day!?</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://blogactionday.org/"><img src="http://www.vgg.com/mp3/action_125x125.jpg" alt="This is a sick joke, right?" border="0" align="right"></a><br />
It's <a href="http://blogactionday.org/">Blog Action Day</a>!!! Today thousands of blogs are blogging about the enviroment. Somehow, this will make it all better. *cough* </p>

<p>Sooooooo. We'll see how well that works out. Meantime, to join in the useless fun, Here's a catchy environmental ditty about the evils of aerosol cans "Whatcha Gonna Do When The Ozone Goes." Sung by Tommy Nations, it's from a 45 I found at a thrift store.</p>

         <title>MP3 Monday - It&apos;s Simchat Torah, Charlie Brown!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>It's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simchat_Torah">Simchat Torah</a>!!! Or was Friday, anyway. Think there aren't any songs about this particular Jewish holiday? Think again, chump! We got for you the 1984 song "Children, Today is Simchat Torah," from a set of 45s by Graded Press; <i>Bible Festivals: Today and Long Ago.</i> On Simchat Torah, Jews celebrate finishing reading and studying the Torah, only to start all over again! No, they don't even take a day off in between, they finish up Deuteronomy, and go straight back into Genesis! This is why Jews are not known for their partying abilities. </p>

         <title>WTF Friday - Mac N Cheese/Spaghetti Moat!</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="SpaghettiMoatMeal.JPG" src="http://www.vgg.com/VGGBlog/SpaghettiMoatMeal.JPG" width="497" height="253" /><br />
As halloween nears, we will delve into the macabre, the evil, the... inedible! This is from an old recipe pamphlet from the fine folks at Kraft (don't sue us!). This Frankenstinian creation appears to be nothing more than good ole mac &amp; cheese dumped in a bowl of spaghetti sauce, then sprinkled with olives for no reason. Oh, wait there is a reason: THERE IS NO REASON. Did moms in the 1960s really spend time carefully sculpting their lumps of mac &amp; cheese so the corners were perfectly square to match the bowl, so that the mac &amp; cheese was carefully protected from all invaders by a deep and unappetizing moat of purest tomato sauce!? No one shall take these way-too-carefully sliced olive slices without a fight! Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more, Or close the wall up with our English dead!</p>]]></description>
