Now THAT was hard to read. Sorry, not my kind of humor, either. I'll bet the Monty Python fans love it though. *Ducking and running out of the thread.*

 

[Bushido71XS]

You do realize that right now Rev. Al Sharpton is organizing a protest against the Lit BB right now, don't you?

And who could forget da Reverand Al back when he was a Bluesman, and he made more sense than he does now, with lyrics like......

Thmokin ohn a naght train chewin ohn ah jelly roll-uh
Thmokin ohn a naght train chewin ohn ah jelly roll-uh
Yah cant-uh fry-uh an egg wit outta pahn
Yah should naht use yo tongue to stop ah fan
Thmokin ohn a night train chewin ohn ah jelly roll-uh....

Reverun' Doctah,

I just want to say that I love you. Growing up in the south, all of my life I have seen people like you, I have heard people like you, and when I hear you talk, and your voice is so kind, so knowing, and your speech is like music, I want to give you a great big hug and thank "de Lawd" that there are people like you.

I'm so goddamned white sometimes it's scarey and I am so glad that you are different from me. Again, I love you. If people don't understand, then maybe they don't have the ears for your message.

rock on, brother, rock on

 

[Curious Guy]

Killer Muffin are you talking that funny typing, again? Damn, that was hard to read.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Isn't this what got "Huckleberry Finn" tossed off school bookshelves? Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy....

 

[FlamingoBlue]

Excellent sentiment, Rev....

loved it. And you are soooo right on about fear.
