Wasn’t Yvonne Craig Batgirl on the 70’s Batman? Now that is scary I can remember that and not what happened last week….Surely that is worth some non-relevant trivia points?
The Men in Black are at it again. Big Brother on the back of a truck. Terrifying! OMG. Drive away, drive away. I don’t even want to know what’s inside the truck.
Hmm it sure would make a person think, no matter if they are religious or not. I think my mind would think about it, maybe at the expense of paying attention to the road Beth! ❤

For me, this guy looks like a member of the “Mad Men” show. Cool, offer me a martini not a strange question.
So then I am wondering why the suit and how this applies to prayer. Who is it limiting? It is like the white, blue-eyed Jesus that even as a child I was not sure He represented someone from the desert area of Jerusalem or Bethlehem.
Ha! I can tell you this – there used to be some real good looking cops in Mesquite Texas – Ha! Years ago there was a southern trucking company that had messages like your picture above on their trucks and trailers. I was parked beside one of their trucks at a truck stop in Mesquite one morning. It had a big cross in lights on the air deflector and written on the side was “Truckin’ for Jesus” I was checking my tires (having slept there in my bunk) when the driver got dropped off. He was a good ol’ Mississippi boy who looked a little worse for the wear and I asked him just casually how he was doing. He went off on this long story, the gist of which was that he had tried to pay a girl in a bar for sex the night before and she had turned out to be an undercover cop. Ha! He spent the night in jail. I told him he should change the sigh on his door to “Truckin’ to Beat Jesus” Ha! (PS – I mean no disrespect to religion – just to those who impose theirs on others.)
Murphy: I have a friend , Penny, who has 6 kids (and is a school teacher). She is hilarious and although she has a great deal of Faith, she is not a seriously religious person. She taught her 3 year old , Benjamin, to holler HALLELLUAH! every time he sees a cross. It is too funny. You see this little guy rolling along and then suddenly there is a “HALLELLUAH!” and he keeps going. Bwahaha!
I don’t know whether you noticed but I have begun setting my poetry out in a layout similar to yours; I think it’s more reader friendly and frankly I like it a lot. I hope you don’t mind
i have noticed the change, john and i’m happy that you’ve found a style that is one that you enjoy – i think we’re all in a constant state of change, and things flow as they should. each person’s style is unique and no one has a claim on them. i’m flattered that you feel as though your great writing is in any way like mine. )
This would be scary. I like to turn things end over end so I’d also wonder how folks would act if, instead of s suited figure, there would be a person in robes. Or with a beard. Or a shapely woman. Or a small child. Or of a person with a weapon. Or someone handing out $20 bills. Appearances can be deceiving.
Have never seen anything like this on a van. Might scare me, too!
