6. The bear scene.  Hillarious, but why a bear?  Any particular reason?  When I
saw the word bestiality I assumed a monkey, or maybe a horse.

I had a considerable amount of fun having just about all the LEGO animals in my
collection try out for the part, but I think it was the look on the bear's face
that sealed the deal.  The whole idea of God even deigning to mention something
like bestiality in his most holy of books strikes me as fairly ridiculous, and
so the bear and the elephant seemed fittingly in line with that spirit of utter
ridiculousness.

I just wanted to let you guys know that in the witch-hunting days around
1650-1700 in Sweden there is atleast one documented case of Bear bestaility. The
accused walked free thanks to the unlikliness of the whole thing. As did men who
were accused of bestailty with cats and other animals that most likely would put
up a severe fight.

Also my complimants to Brendan for a job well done! I hope the folks in the
subway don't have too much acid in their muscles from that key-holdng thing :)

Hi, Keith. (...) I have to admit direct inspiration from the blockdeath.com website for using all-black figs to represent crispified corpses. My first inclination would probably have been to show the victims screaming in pain, but I think the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)
