It's a good thing Ernest's eyesight has failed in old age, because if he saw that death mask in the mirror every morning when he adjusts the dead raccoon on his head, he'd surely do the right thing and make an appointment the local faith-healer mortuary to get outfitted in the latest "Goin' Home to Jebus" casket.

I called my unborn first-born "the parasite", to the shock and horror of others. At 24 yrs old, it still really applies (sigh)

The real downside of this story, for me, is that this fucker won't live to be punished as he ought to be. He deserves about 30 years in prison, but he'll die before they can convict him, if Joe Paterno is any kind of indicator. On the bright side, the congregants should be able to sue his estate for every penny it has, and if they hurry this through the courts, might even make it in time to force the "reverend" to scrounge his last few meals from a garbage can.

<em>"And let’s just be completely clear on this: it is definitely not gay if you talk about women. Also, something about balls not touching, as we understand it.</em>

<strong>CORRECTION</strong>: You can touch balls as much as you want, it's when your penises touch that you are officicially gay! Just ask Lindsey Graham!
