AP - Two sheriff's deputies checking on a motorist stopped along Interstate 70 in the predawn darkness were puzzled at first by what they found — a driver dressed like an old-time pioneer, saying he was headed for South Dakota with Bibles and "supplies" for American Indian children.

If Republicans can claim with straight faces that al-Qaida is fighting to elect John Kerry (finally, Osama finds a U.S. presidential candidate he can get behind!), should it surprise us that the GOP is warning voters that liberals want to ban bibles? The Republican party actually admits doing this in mass mailings in two states:

Tijuana Christmas MP3s from hell

Tijuana Christmas MP3s from hell 12/22/2004 01:29 AM
Xeni Jardin: El amigo de BoingBoing moblog kid dice:

"Tijuana Xmas! Aaaaaaahahaha! the cheesiest christmas songs, straight outta Tijuana! these are going straight onto a christmas cd to terrorize my family."

Link to Christmas MP3s from "The Border Brass." Link to image of front cover, Link to back.

Link to the label behind the album, part of a series of xmas releases. (Thanks, Shawn)

Reader Bill the Splut says,

"As the owner of scores of freakishly anti-Christmas albums that have been used to abuse my friends at this time of year, I was excited to buy "Tijuana Christmas" for a dollar. But I never used it. The reason isn't that LP isn't cheezy enough, but because the joke is too subtle. As an actual, admitted lifetime fan of Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, Tijuana Christmas is brilliant. They aren't just Xmas tunes--every one is a parody of a TJB hit. For instance, note how track 3 mimics A Taste of Honey. The rest of the tracks have similar musical jokes.

"And people would've caught those jokes. Remember, the TJB was a huge success before the Beatles came over. Anyone who was an American kid in the 60s had parents with most of Herb's LPs. Why else do you think that you find so many copies of Whipped Cream and Other Delights in every stack of used vinyl?"

Xeni Jardin: If you're in driving or flying distance of Tijuana, Mexico mid-September, check out the 8th annual IAF Fest: video, film, music, and multimedia on September 17 and 18. The project's aim: "To create and maintain alternate spaces for the expression of audiovisual multidisciplinary art in the Mexico/U.S. border region." So, why Tijuana? "Because of the... cultural and economic exchange that takes place daily in the region," say organizers of the frontera festival created to "serve as a meeting place for the international digital art community." Some great DJs, artists, and filmmakers participating this year -- definitely a don't miss.

On Fleshbot:

Tijuana Bibles were your grandfather's low-tech equivalent of Internet porn: pocket-sized stroke mags published between 1920 and 1960 featuring illustrations of "wildly sodomistic situations" and politically incorrect smut before anyone realized such a thing existed.
