Great job as always, Brendan.

Thanks.

I think I've now read more of the Bible in its
Brick Testament incarnation than in book form.

I wonder how many people there are for whom that has come to be the case.  Or,
as I continue on, how many people will eventually be in the same boat.

But you know, as soon as I saw that the landowner's son was Timmy, I knew that
the slaves weren't going to respect him.  It's kind of like when you see the
same character actor over and over again, and he's always playing a bad guy, so
every time you see him it's like, "Ooh, there's the bad guy!"

Hey, that's not entirely true.  I think I've cast Timmy in some semi-respectable
roles.  For example, he was the virgin Mary.

And yet--I still enjoyed watching Timmy die.

I should do a round up of how many times I've used Timmy in The Brick Testament,
and what percentage of those times he's met a brutal death.  I hope no one was
reading the Jesus Is Born story waiting for Mary to get run through with a
sword.
