Good News!
I'm once again responding to a Higher Calling, and it must be God this time, because it's GUNS!
I've successfully secured my booth for this weekend's Arms and Craft Expo at the Fair Grounds. Technically, it's Syl'Via's professional rodent boyfriend Bob's space. He sells Prolife Pistols.... "

Armed Rodent Bob told me that I couldn’t share a table with him at the Arms and Craft Expo because he needed all his table space for selling “I am a Soldier in Jesus’ Army” t-shirts, ProLife rifle scopes, and, of course, his latest Real Life’s Work: ‘Heaven’s Half Acre - a new big white Christian subdivision right off the freeway, bordering a landfill.
He was selling .5 acre lots for 50K each.
He had 30 acres.
“Why don’t you just build a Theme Park?” I suggested, walking up to his booth Saturday morning and examining his homemade poster. It showed a 1960’s looking community overshadowed by a huge cross not quite big enough to blot out the high voltage powerlines that dominated the otherwise barren landscape. ‘NRA’ was emblazoned on the cross going one way. ‘Freedom’ ran down the other beam.
He was not happy to see me. He tried to ignore me.
“Thirty Acres isn’t big enough for a paranoid gun nut subdivision, but it’s huge for a narrow-minded zealot theme park…You could have a Water Slide and rides, games, and concessions…all centered around access to Jesus, guns and Women’s Reproductive Systems. It would be like a living monument to your pro-life’s work. Women wouldn’t be allowed to work there, of course….maybe one could work in the Fetus Fun House; where kids get chased through a mirrored maze by a crazed Mommy with a vacuum. "
