I was once told that all the churches/monuments/whatevers named "Our Lady of $NAME" were those built on sites of Virgin sightings.

So this is.... what? Notre Dame de Dégradation Urbaine? Our Lady of The Underpass? Our Lady of Graffiti?

*facepalm*

I'll have to take a picture of Our Lady of Chevron down the street from where I work for you one day, Kenn.

That thing looks like a vagina. Sorry, but it does.

Maybe she's looking to finally fix that whole "virgin" problem?

And given the, uh, size, maybe she has a fetish for moose?

The truly scary thing for me is that this is not by any stretch of the imagination far away from me.

The thing I'm finding funny is that the candles sitting in front of it look like tallboys to me.

Votive candles are the greatest invention to come out of the Catholic Church, ever. They're neat to look at when they're burning, last for days, and the wax melts at a low temperature and stays cool enough that you can pour it on bare skin without flinching.

(And if you've never seen a perfectly formed wax "glove", carefully peeled off your hands, well, the, you've never really played with fire, let me tell you!)

Candle: $2 at "Big Bud's", which is a cross between a dollar store and a K-Mart. They sell everything, as long as it's cheap.

Burning time: about two hours to get that much melted.

Pouring time: 3 seconds, if that.

Oops, I should add a "Not work-safe" tag to that.

I was gonna say. That URL didn't look too happy.

If that's what I think it is, then consider: I don't even stick my real name on this anywhere prominent, and I don't talk about my job without friendslocking it *and* using the My Beloved Corporate Masters euphemism. Pictures? I don't even do normal pictures of me doing normal things. Anything I may or may not do that could justify a "sexinfo101.com" URL? Unless you're joining in, it's Not Happening. You can have non-titillating shots of my hands, at most.

For further clarity: You know, all those times on the group that I asked for a JPEG? I wasn't really serious. Much like this time.

Right, then.

Now that I'm not at work, and having read that, yes, yes you could use these for that, easily.

> There are special candles available at adult stores that burn at a lower
> temperature than regular candles

If by "special candles" you mean "votive candles" and "special stores" you mean "your local Catholic church", then yes, this is true.

So, sorry. No pictures of hot naked man-flesh with wax being poured on bits - but you could do that yourself at home, easily, if you wanted to. There are also pictures (And videos!) of this available all over the web.

No, that's voodoo.

(I didn't know this before seeing an exhibit of same at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, which included three altars transported wholesale from Haiti with the owners' permission for the exhibit, but apparently each of the loa have their favorite alcoholic beverages and cigarette brands.)
