Thank you...great stuff!
I love the line - "I plan on not dying, but if I have to, I want to die in Liverpool."
Guess he should seek out some vampires to gain immortality.

Does anyone remember when Mac said something about walking around in cowboy hats or boots and saying that he and the band were born-again Christians while they were in America? It's hilarious and I don't know where it is. I might need to use that someday.

Oh? That was a dig at U2? I thought it was a dig at America. That makes it funnier. I mean, I liked both U2 and EATB, when I was a kid and didn't know any better. ;) Just kidding. U2 had some really good albums early on, but I lost interest after Joshua Tree.

well, three of U2 were born-again Christians, at least early on, and Bono did run around with a cowboy hat on, and you know how much Mac likes to take potshots at them, so ...

So I take it none of you have accepted Christ as your personal savior?
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I keep getting that wrong. Once I accepted Christy as my administrative personnel supervisor. Does that count?

From the priests? I think they only liked the altar boys. Me, I'm allergic to nuns.

Ditto.
Although I was never taught by them.
Apparently they made me scream and run in the opposite direction from an early age.
They still give me the willies.
Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness.
