Heavenly Father,
Recently you have taken away my favorite dancer, Michael Jackson;
my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze;
my favorite actress, Farrah Fawcett;
my favorite comedian, Soupy Sales;
my favorite pitchman, Billy Mays;
and my favorite sidekick, Ed McMahon.
Just so you know, my favorite politicians now are Barack Obama,
Nancy Pelosi,
and Harry Reid.
Thank you and Amen.
