Clinton, mormons and gas prices

I just worked Houston and had a great time. Before that at the Cleveland Improv and Morty's in Indy... Comedy is fun. Have worked with some great guys and some funny comedians. Houston is different this time. To say that over the years that Houston is pro Bush is a lot of an understatement. The airport is named after Bush. But this time even Houston was angry with him. I had a waitress just going off on him for as long as I would listen... His approval is so low that even at the airport only thirty percent of the planes will land.I know a guy who was listening to the Darwin Awards book on tape- and then it slipped into the bathtub.The reason I don't think Obama is a visionary revolutionary is because.. One, he isn't saying anything like that... and he isn't dead.The problem in this Democratic primary is that Hillary Clinton hasn't been able to have her voice heard and to make her case for deserving the nomination. I am of course being sarcastic. While I admire her desire and her fight and her never give up attitude... She has lost. It is like if when the Houston Rockets got eliminated by the Jazz- they just kept getting ready for the Lakers."We're watching film and game planning for Kobe."They show up at the forum... Just in case something happens and the Utah Jazz all die in a plane crash- they can be ready. Maybe some Mormon preacher will say some crazy shit and then the Rockets can get some super delegates to sneak them into the conference championship.Speaking of crazy Mormons. The Cult in Texas. Interestingly I recently just read a book about Mormonism and the fundamentalists by the Into the Wild author Jon Kraukauer. The book is Under the Banner of Heaven. Some of the names like Warren Jeff's and others from this group are mentioned and discussed in the book.This whole freedom of religion thing we have in America means we have to put up some out there wacky shit. There are a lot of these fundamentalist Mormon cults and towns, and the way they treat women and children is scary. They also believe they are prophets so the leaders speak for God.One of the reasons that these men rationalize and teach that it is okay to have sex with thirteen year olds is that is how old the Virgin Mary was when she became pregnant. So- in the Mormon religion they see God as a pedophile...?Cut to 1 B.C. Man walks into barn as a girl ducks out saying, "Just sit down I will be right out"Out walks Chris HansonWhat ya doing here GOD?I was, ah umm meeting a friend.Really? Do you think it is appropriate to bring frankincense and mirth to a 13yr old girl?I don't know, I wasn't gonna do anything,... I ah,Well, according to this on-line transcript of your conversation and this sacred scroll... you were in fact 'looking' for a virgin to carry your seed?...Look! I wasn't going to have sex with her. I was going to impregnate her.Okay... this is where good writing will come in later and this will get fixed and have an ending, but you get the jest.Filling my car up with gas is like playing poker. Cuz I have to go all-in. I then hope the credit card company doesn't call my bluff.Just wanted to get a few ideas out of the notebook and see what can develop.
