I guess I’m just going to say that he died doing what he loved, and rest in peace.

Play stupid games and win stupid prizes.

Everything in life is an IQ test in one form or another.

“I am essential,” he said of remaining open, adding, “I’m a preacher — I talk to God!”

I get what he is saying, but it reminds me a little bit of “pride goeth before the fall” too.

“Thou shalt not tempt the Lord your God!”

But they insist on testing God. Over a stupid ChiCom Virus.
A virus they were told to heed, in advance.

Way in advance.
