That wasn't lightning.

That was Hell knocking out a wall to squeeze his corpse in through.

I wonder how many people will be up there in the next 25 years saying to guards “I couldn’t find a spitoon or a restroom.”.

I heard getting buried in the dark brings bad luck.

Aren’t evil people and criminals the only ones buried in the dark? That what I was always told.

Six Feet Of Earth
 
I'll sing you a song of the world and its ways,
    And the many strange people we meet --
From the rich man who rolls in his millions of wealth,
    To the struggling wretch on the street.
Now a man, tho' he's poor, and in tatters and rags,
    We should never affect to despise;
But think of the adage, remember, my friends,
    That six feet of earth makes us all of one size.
 
There's the rich man with thousands to spare if he likes,
    But he who haughtily holds up his head,
And who thinks he's above the mechanic who toils,
    And is honestly earning his bread;
But his gold and his jewels he can't take away,
    To the world up above, when he dies;
For death levels all, and conclusively shows
    That six feet of earth makes us all of one size.
 
There's many a coat that is tattered and torn,
    That beneath lies a true, honest heart,
But because he's not dress'd like his neighbors in style,
    Why "Society" keeps them apart.
For on one Fortune smiles while the other one fails,
    Yes, no matter what venture he tries;
But time calls them both to the grave in the end,
    And six feet of earth makes us all of one size.
 
                                            Austin Smith

Perpetual Help ... has to do with the crucifixion. Notice Christ is in the icon. I suppose some would not understand the connection between MaryJo K’s death and the Cross. Paul said something about it ... about the body of Christ. Somebody could look it up.

Eerie darkness, ominous thunder with lightening flicking through the night sky.

Like a horror movie - befitting The Prince of Darkness.

It’s kind of prophetic that Kennedy’s family and friends left him in the dark.

Who planned this thing? Were they going to throw dirt on him in the dark or did the pontificating over the corpse just go on longer than expected?

No, it's just Obama yawning.

Isn't it ironic that our first Blafrican Muslim president is attending the funeral of a dirtbag US Senator who was the rich white trust fund baby of a wealthy Nazi sympathizer? And to top it off the gravesite is in front of the 19th century family home of Confederate General Robert E. Lee. You cant make this stuff up America! How's that joke and change shi+ working out for you?

Grandson who needs a haircut and to lose weight seems like he is truly upset.

Lost my last 2 grandparents when I was 50. Age does not temper the grief. I felt like he looks. 4 (whoops 5, losing count as I get older) years later, it is still hard at times.

And at least the casket is not gaudy gold like Michael Jacksons.

Yes, I hope FNC shows a video of them hosing off the backhoe so we can finally have some kennedy coverage "closure". Now, ---back to the up to the minute news coverage of how the marxist regime is destroying America.

he requested assignment to Fort Holabird for Army Intelligence training, but was dropped after a few weeks without explanation

IT's because every time they looked the other way he would head for East Baltimore Street and the strip clubs on the Block. Or maybe he just had an addiction to Polock Johnny's polish sausages. Not that there's anything wrong with polish sausage. I'm just sayin'.
