Re: Westboro Baptist Church ... "Louisiana Epic" pt2
“Oh, it’s Eric with a ‘k’—jackass with a ‘k’—and you’re late!” Lizz said, dashing
his spirits and causing him to slump off to the other side of the picket line. After this
encounter he was incessantly referred to as “Eric with a ‘k’!”
The next day thousands gathered to ignore us at Nicholls State University. Eric
with a ‘k’, yellow-shirt-guy (who followed us around the day before like an ugly dog),
and a boy dressed up as Dorothy were among those that greeted us with a contemptuous
uproar. We had a fenced-in-area in the center of the crowd, and six-year-old Noah was
the center of attention to his intellectual peers of students/faculty and staff. Noah asked to
hold “Pope in Hell” which boiled many people’s blood—stubborn necromancers. Even
though not a peep was heard when angry rimmers threw ice at us (they missed), a huge
cheer was heard from the mob, “two down six to go!” when Noah was momentarily
escorted to a restroom break. And again, we were inundated with applause when Noah
dropped his sign for a couple of seconds. Talk about grasping at straws—he’s a picketerin-
training! Then the students got religion…and began their idolatrous mantra of “Hail
Mary...” etc., to which Shirl replied by lifting up the Hail Mary with butt buddies sign. As
the thirty minute picket came to a rapid close, a “five minute departure” ensued wherein
some members reluctantly gave up their signs to continue the glee they were
experiencing by condemning the foolish, God-defying passel of undisciplined idolaters
(aka Nicholls State University Student body). As we were making our way toward our
cars, Shirl spotted the President and, to his horror, said “the quickest way to get some
kids to do something is to tell them not to do it. Thank you so kindly for telling them to
ignore us and for helping us spread our message!” As we were about to drive off, a few
reporters came running to do a quick interview. Among other questions, they asked Noah
what he thought of the picket: “I think…all fags are evil!” Thus ending our unforgettable
experiences in Thibodaux, Louisiana.

Are you kidding, I thought that you gave this up, posting news articles and other things anyone can just go online and read. And you ruined facebook. You are not in a fraternity, you created 4 fake ones that only you belong to. If you fix it, I might still go on a date with you.
