For Those Here Who Truly Care About Rev Graham


ALEIGH, N.C. – Evangelist Billy Graham was alert and resting comfortably Wednesday evening after being admitted to an Asheville, N.C. hospital for the treatment of pneumonia, doctors said.

The 92-year-old Graham arrived Wednesday morning at Mission Hospital after he suffered a health episode overnight that included sweating, coughing and breathing difficulty, Graham spokesman A. Larry Ross told The Associated Press on Wednesday. "But he was never in distress or an acute situation," Ross said.

"Throughout his stay, he had remained alert and in good spirits and with his humor intact," Ross said. "He signed his own admission papers."

3. I wonder if Little Man will drop by?

I am not being facetious, here.

If the Reverend Billy had not intervened re: Little Man's Hell-Raising, would Little Man have gone on to Save the World?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Really...

5. Who or what is Little Man?

8. Well, ma'am, it's little georgie.

I do not know how much time you have in the barrel or bottle (as we say in Wine Country), but there used to be this folk correlation that certain appendages were determined by size of feet and hands.

My dear friend Molly Ivins soon noticed that Little Man's attributes were somewhat diminutive.

Little Man was GWB.

'nuff said.

4. i am sorry too...but

isn't this a bit close to that Rapture date? :hide: May 21, right?

Hope he doesn't pass on that date or it could be narly...

6. sorry to hear about anyone suffering from pneumonia because I

have had it at least 12 times and it gets worse everytime I get it...

Having said that, I guess it was Billy Joel who said it best, that only the good die young....

7. *92* ?? The Good Lord doesn't seem to be eager to have ol' Billy join him ...

but maybe he'll surprise us all.
