D'Oh! Homer irks pagans
From The Sun:
PAGANS have pledged to perform “rain magic” to wash away cartoon character Homer Simpson who was painted next to their famous fertility symbol - the Cerne Abbas giant.
The 17th century chalk outline of the naked, sexually aroused, club-wielding giant is believed by many to be a symbol of ancient spirituality.
Many couples also believe the 180ft giant, which is carved in the hillside above Cerne Abbas, Dorset, is an aid to fertility.
A giant 180ft Homer Simpson brandishing a doughnut was painted next to the well-endowed figure today in a publicity stunt to promote The Simpsons Movie released later this month.

Man, the publicity push for The SImpsons movie is really full-tilt.
I was excited enough about all of those 7-11's turning into Kwik-E-Marts.
Here's a list of where they are, in case you'd like to visit one. I've been trying to organize some friends for a weekend trip to Washington, D.C. to see the closest one to Greensboro, buy some Squishees, Buzz Cola and Krusty-O's.
Who needs the Kwik-E-Mart?
I....dooooooooo.......
