Any one want to bet someone from the MSM will report about Mark of the Beast in the Bible, in the context of this news?
This is Bob. That is not his real name. Actually, that is the sound his head makes when he bumps into walls.
Bob should be microchipped, in case he wanders off. Right now, when he pulls a Houdini, we can only locate him by the sound of screeching tires and the cursing of angry drivers.
We need help keeping track of Bob. He may be developmentally disabled, but he's swifter on the uptake than we are, and we don't appreciate that.
So please...give generously. Think of Bob.
It's for the children. Fnord.
