"I Am A sinner"
Here's something quaint and amusing - if it weren't so sad - which a poor deluded child of probably 10 years age wrote on the inside cover of the aforementioned King James Bible, which I got at a church bake sale. His name has been changed to protect the innocent: "My name is Mitchell Bolton Jr. I Am A sinner, and I believe that God sent His son Jesus Christ The Lord To Die on The cross To Pay for My sins. I Believe That on the Day Jesus Returns, I will be lifted up into Heaven To Join Him & our Heavenly father, AMEN! in Jesus' name." Well, pretty good compositional skills for a young man of his apparent age (I'm judging mostly from the kind of handwriting, very good but revealing) but I have only one Question for young Mitch: "Who was the caterer at Jesus's Bar-Mitzvah?" And always remember, young man: "He that sups with the devil must have a long spoon." And this, from Electrolux 13-13: "Thou shalt not step on a Sidewalk Crack, lest thou shouldst break thy Mother's back."
