Maundy Thursday

News Flash! Blue-eyed Jesus spotted on WTBN, Channel 21, quoting from the Gospel according to John. The eyes were a deep ocean blue set off by pale skin and rosy cheeks. His faces was framed by only-slightly-wavy shoulder-length brown hair. Barely a chance of Mediterranean blood, let alone Semitic or African. 

These Blue-eyed Jesuses all seem to come from The Lake Distict, Copenhagen, or Sweden. (Although on WTBN everyone is two or three shades lighter than on any other station, religious or otherwise.) Still...those nagging rumors about the Somali connection.

I'm told Anthony Quinn will be making an appearance soon as Barabbas. No chance of recessive eye genes there (though I've been fooled before).

The great Good Friday quandry is: Do I break my fast if I pick up a sausage bisquit at McDonald's for Betty the receptionist?
