On God's Answering Machine

"I know it's been a while since I've been in touch.  I know you've been busy with the terrible economy, and the government bail out, and the Mid Eastern thing, and filling out your March brackets.  Oh yeah, thanks for the new President, he was on TV last night filling out his brackets, too.  I saw him playing hoops a while back; he played point, looked good, but I wish he would go to his right once in a while.

Now, you know that it's coming.  You know I'm gonna ask a favor, but I'll try not to ask for too big of one.

I'm not gonna ask you to let the Cards run the table and streak to sixteen straight victories and become NCAA champions.

I'm only asking that you not let us lose our last game this season.

That would be great.

Sorry I missed ya.  And thanks for everything.

Hit me back, sometime."
