Re: Back from Freehold

It's very nice to see Descendants of Ham that have developed useful skills.

Bethany and Brand Covington will probably be discussing your grandson's skills for years to come. Their daughters, having experienced Hot Rod and Iron Bone first hand, as it were, will probably shun any local wannabe pipe layers for the rest of their lives.

I'm so proud of those boys. They are self taught skilled tradesmen. Their plumbing skills are in high demand, especially with the local widows and spinsters.

Any plumbing in the long term future will most likely be on the side. Iron Bone will be off to Clemson University this fall. He plans on majoring in Civil Engineering. Hot Rod has one more year of high school left. His grades are excellent and he hopes to attend Duke University. Hopefully he'll get that football scholarship!

It is interesting that you mention Ham. My father was the late Abner J. (Ham Bone) Washington, a Colleton County farmer of considerable fame, so you could say that everyone in the family is a descendant of Ham!

"Descendants of Ham"?

And where in the Bible does it say that black people are descendants of Ham? CHAPTER AND VERSE! (like you always say)

It's very rare for me to respond to Papist challengers, but I will have you know:

1. I did not say that my phrase "Descendants of Ham" was necessarily based upon any particular passage in the Good Book (KJV1611). If, indeed, I was doing that I would have cited it accordingly.

2. If you could drag yourself from spending all you time lurking around the confessional booth or prowling the local parochial elementary schools ~~looking for fresh meat~~, you could go to the nearest book store and search for the title: "Denegrifying Myself - the Life and Times of Luther T Washington".

In his book, Brother Washington clearly identified his late father as Abner J. (Ham Bone) Washington. Not wanting to embarrass him by overtly sharing my admiration of him and his struggles to attain our whiteness levels in a public forum, I chose instead to use "code words" to indicate I had read his inspring story.

Now that I've revealed to all Brother Washington's ability to put his inspiring autobiography in print, I suggest you visit Barnes and Noble to search for the book.

And please stay away for the children's reading room.

I appreciate your enthusiasm for my autobiography. However in your excitement you mis-typed the name of the book. The correct title is "Dignifying Myself - The Life and Times of Luther T. Washington". It is in very limited publication at it is unlikely many libraries outside of the immediate Colleton area would have it on their shelves.

Well, that is a crying shame, Mr. Washington.

Upon seeing these glowing testimonials, I had hoped that these fine, upstanding young men of yours could pay a visit to North Salem. I have so desperate a need for expert pipe-laying, and can't find a single capable gentleman in town!

If they could see their way clear to heading up for a week or so, I could happily put them to work all over the church, snaking drains and laying pipe as needed. If they have time, they could give my rectory a thorough working-over, as well!

Several members of my congregation have also commented on a need for some skilled plumbers; the ladies often say that their husbands don't even have the basic tools for the job, and some of the gentlemen -- both married and single -- have pointed out that they have needs, as well. So, if Hot Rod and Iron Bone wanted to spend a good part of the summer in North Salem laying pipe, I'm sure they'd be welcomed with open arms!

It'd be a great way for them to save cash for college.

You are so right, Brother Washington, I did, indeed, mis-type the title. I have a diagnosed case of finger dyslexia and have to be extremely careful when ~~tippling~~ typing.

Forgive me.

What a generous offer Reverand Rodimer! I'll mention it to the boys. I'm sure their parents will have some input into the decision. My own feeling is that they are a bit too young to venture all the way to Indiana on their own. They are after all, only 18 and 17. However, they could use some extra money for college.

Perhaps if my wife Flossie and I were to accompany them on this adventure, their parents, my daughter and son in law, will allow them to go.

Is there an A.M.E Church in North Salem where Flossie, Iron Bone, Hot Tod and myself will find fellowship with our brothers and sisters in Jesus?

I'm afraid not, Mr. Washington. We'd hope that you'd join us for services, unless of course you feel that the boys would be distracted from Godly thoughts by worshipping in the same pew as the men and women they'd serviced the week before.

There is an AME church in Indianapolis, but I haven't researched it. It's not an anti-Christian cult of some sort, is it? This HoMo'Kelly lesbian thinks it is.

Why we would be glad to join you for services. Thank you very much for the invitation! I'm not sure why my grandsons would be uncomfortable sharing worship with plumbing customers. They go to church every week with some of their customers. Most of their customers attend St. Peter's Episcopal church over in Walterboro.

Let me assure you. A.M.E. is no cult. A is for African. M is for Methodist on which our mainstream Protestant beliefs are based. E is for Episcopal which is how the church organization is structured.

I do not know who Mo'Kelly is, and after viewing your link I'm sure I have no desire to meet him.
