I have given leave to my child Stoney, for she is without strength in her body, yea in her limbs. She has touched the Spirit and it has weakened her, even unto consuming of the Coke-a-Cola and unto the chips of tortilla, and they have been fried to a delicious crispness and sprinkled as with salt.
She has been about doing The Work. And The Work is of a tiring nature for it involves speaking to the flock, and the multitudes. And they are weak minded, even unto being called Simpletons. For they do consume many pork products, which thus sayeth God are unclean. Especially when they are wrapped in corn bread and fried and placed on sticks and left out to come to room temperature, which my son Leviticus didst speak unto you about earlier. And when they are consumed with over-priced colas and served with popcorn, woe unto those that are carrying an extra 100 pounds. For they will sweat.
And on this yesterday didst our prophet Stoney speak unto the multitudes. And she spake at the Convention Center which is downtown, and was filled with the Devil. And the Devil was disguised as Snake Oil salesmen who told the people that they had products to make their lives easier. And mesh covers for gutters, and hard coating for fences that maketh unto them an ugly site unto the Lord. And tchotchkes that should be burned at an alter annointed with oil to make a pleasing fire unto the Lord. For Precious Moments figurines are not pleasing unto me, yea, they maketh me want to send a plague of something to wipe out their creepy big heads with eyes that round in a most unpleasing way.
And the people were afraid of the words the prophet Stoney had. They were afraid, yea that she would causeth them to open their monies and cause them to spew forth. But she yelled at the money changers, for they did want to charge a transaction fee for the taking of her own money. But she did speak unto the people and did instruct them to not overwater their lawns. Yea, and to not put plants that do not belong in the clime of Texas, and things unto this. Mostly she spake unto the removal of fire ants, for they are not of God, but are the spawn of Satan.
And lo, as the meeting did begin to close, the people began to see that she spake the truth, for she did not want their money. She did, but only if they won the lottery and were of heart and mind to share, but that is not important now. And on this day she did heed her own words and lay down 20 cubic yards of manure unto her garden. And it shall flourish, thus sayeth the Lord. And with the laying on of hands, most likely by her loving mate, she shall rise again for another day to spread the word of growing your own tomatoes and roses. For I am the Alpha and the Omega, and my god, if you read this far you are a true friend.

And you shall be taken into paradise, even that which is the State Fair. And unto you I say: thou shalt be filled with mixed drinks, and eateth of the Mexican food, and all shall be right in your world. Amen.

And unto thee shalt the beer and the cheese and meat covered bread, even the Quesadillas, unto thee shalt they flow. And there will be much rejoicing.

Date: 2004-09-19 07:04 pm (UTC)And the gardening symposium was a delight unto the multitudes, and if thou wouldst read thine email, thou shalt see a tale therein giving unto you the words which I have spake, and giving unto you a description of that time. And amongst those words are words of courage unto a reader of essays, yea, even unto the reading in front of ex-loves. Be ye strong of heart, and filled with liquor, thus sayeth the Lord.

Why didst God not create unto his world the Republicans if not to give unto his Chosen those for which to mock?
Blessed are the Corn Dogs
Date: 2004-09-19 03:38 pm (UTC)And thou shalt purchase waffles covered in cream and strawberries, and though thou mayest shout at the heaven, My God! It is a sticky food and it is 90 degrees! Canst thou not bring unto us something on a stick? And your cries shall not fall upon deaf ears. And I shalt provide unto my children sausages, crocodile, jalapeno and even unto the fried cheesecake. And it shalt be as thou hast prayed, even on a stick. And there will be much rejoicing. And heaving.
Blessed are the Hungry
Date: 2004-09-19 03:52 pm (UTC)And there shalt be cakes of funneled dough with a coating of sugar. And if thou art a child, thou shalt bounce as if thine mother had given unto your tiny body an IV of medicines that dost cause great bouts of energy, even crack.
And thou shalt cool thyself in Mine own auto show. And thou shalt sit upon the chairs of the luxury vehicles and see features which are new and exciting. But do not venture into the other buildings, for they are forbidden unto you. For they art filled with hucksters and salesmen who shalt try and sell you new windows, even unto thine own home. And thou shalt not need them, nor shalt thou need yet another piece of exercise equipment, dost thou?
And if thou hast saved time and money, the Midway calls unto thee, and begs of you to ride the spinning ride shaped like an octopus, and the dragon roller coaster. If thou hast been wise, thou wilt wait unto the riding of the Texas Star, my greatest of works.
blessed are the Eagles

ANd the hearts of the children shall turn to the fathers and asketh, "do it again." AND THEY SHALL.

And I shalt say unto you, yea even my servant Fer: I shalt smite the wicked, even unto those that have an ass unto them that is smaller than their shoulders, for it is not what the Lord intended.
Yay thou I walk through the valley of the... ah phooey!
Date: 2004-09-19 03:42 pm (UTC)Ahhh...Sermon Sunday, baby!
Blessed are the lazy
Date: 2004-09-19 03:56 pm (UTC)For thou art wise to not dabble in the sacred language of my Father. For it becomes all consuming and shalt keep you from doing divers things. And people will wonder at your use of divers and not know that it meant other and shalt be amazed at your frightening capacity of Biblical language.
Be not afraid, for thou I speak in strange tongues, know that I am your Lord. Of the dance.
The carrots...
Date: 2004-09-19 04:40 pm (UTC)And the angel of the lord came unto me, snatching me up from my place of slumber. And took me on high, and higher still until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself. And he brought me into a vast farmlands of our own midwest. And as we descended, cries of impending doom rose from the soil. One thousand, nay a million voices full of fear. And terror possesed me then. And I begged, "Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?" And the angel said unto me, "These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots! You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust." And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared, "Hear me now, I have seen the light! They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!" Can I get an amen? Can I get a hallelujah? Thank you Jesus.
Blessed be Jules (and carrots, verily)
Date: 2004-09-19 05:10 pm (UTC)But fear not, for I the Lord have grown weary and do not smite people as I once did. Oh, I may smite one or two, but I havest not "laid my vengeance" since my Chosen people were beseiged by the Romans. So fear, but not greatly. Thus sayest a tired Lord.
