Falwell's body public viewing (4 days) begins in only 15minutes
I am only 2 hours away from Lynchburg-Should I go?



Falwell's funeral set for May 22

LYNCHBURG, VA--Jerry Falwell's funeral will be Tuesday, May 22, at 1 p.m. at Thomas Road Baptist Church, the congregation he founded in Lynchburg, Va., officials announced May 15.

Falwell, a founder of the modern conservative Christian movement, will lie in repose in the Arthur S. Demoss Learning Center’s Grand Lobby at Liberty University for public viewing from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. May 17 and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 18.

A second viewing at Thomas Road will be from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. May 20 and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. May 21, according to a news release from Ron Godwin, executive vice president of the university. Burial will be private.

Instead of flowers, the Falwell family requests that memorials be made to the Founders Scholarship Fund at Liberty University "to further Dr. Falwell's vision of spreading the gospel around the world."

10. See If You Can Leak Through The PA System
A long time ago, I had a CB Radio...the forerunner to both cellphones and chatrooms. These radios would mess up TVs, open garage doors and, in some cases, would leak through PA systems.

One day a fellow CBer revealed that the PA system at his church was having problems with interference from truckers driving down the nearby highway. That revelation led to a group of us heading to the church that Sunday morning and serenading the congregation with some Black Sabbath and greetings from Beelezebub. It took a few minutes for someone to come out of the church...looking paler than Casper.

:rofl:


Why not drive by and give Fred Phelps the "thumbs up".

:rofl:
