Famous Forever

People talk about how everyone has his or her “15 minutes of fame.” Well, that’s not true for me. I now have acquired infinite fame. I will be world famous forever (even after I die). And when I die, I’ll probably be even more famous in heaven, so the 15 minute fame rule doesn’t apply to me.

So, here’s some words of advice for anyone who thinks they might be famous:

If you think you might become famous (and you’ll probably never get as famous as me), make sure and keep all your possessions that way you could sell them later for big bucks.

For example, someone sold my old Volkswagen bug for $244,000 U.S. dollars. Imagine if I would have kept that? I could have made a bundle of cash. That was a poor mistake on my part.

And now, someone is selling my old apartment on eBay. I should have kept that apartment as an investment property. I could have used that money to buy a new wardrobe and send whatever money was left over to feed the poor. It could have benefited two worthy causes.

And lets not forget about the phat rims you could have bought for that Escalade. Im talking gold plating with diamond encrusted spinners! Fully iced out. That would be sweet.

And just a reminder - people on the water need to be saved too! Send me the 25 foot power cat cabin cruiser I want, and I will gladly fill the water holding tank with holy water, and bless all who I see using the pressure pump and a hose! Scantly clad chicks will get an extra blessing, with more water. They probably need it.

The hose is for sale, not the apartment. The apartment was rented out, it is not a condo. So there was never a buck to be made.

You can sell off your Holy Sceptre now; your followers will replace it without your even asking. That's how you can pay for the new portable vending machine for the Escalade. Shoulda thought of that earlier.

I have a question: Are you concerned that a person named Betty Bowers is so famous?

According to Google, she is the most popular site on the Internet for "Christian Advice." She has a gift shop also. Might this cut into your sales?

Don't throw away your underwear or socks. I think the underwear will be especially valuable.
I assume you wear briefs, but it would be so cool if under the robes you were wearing Spongebob boxers.

If you have wear a wife-beater underneath the robes, can you save that one for me? I figure you must cuz you're in Italy and I don't think they sell the other style of undershirts there.
