Also I need to say that the above does not sound like a very funny joke to me. If it is, it is a very sick joke. I think that if the Jesus I know heard this, he would cover his ears and go "blah, blah, blah..." to drown out this horrible sentiment. If indeed Jesus is anybody's "Lord and Savior," this kat has never met him up close and personal. Realist should be ashamed.

At least I'll be glad to know that when the Rapture cones on May 21, I'll be joining Fr. Privett and everyone at KDFC in the right hand of our LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST while the rest of you Communist homosexual Democrat party members ROT IN HELL! BLASPHEMER!

The $10 cover for a DJed event isn't going to fly so it is now free to anyone arriving before 10:00. The after 10:00 price and the location in a former fancy restaurant instead of a dive bar still need re-thinking.
