As a Presbyterian myself, I apologize for those of my brethren who try to be clever on posted signs and fail.

My grass is still under snow in most places… but the birds are back, that I know from the copious amounts of poop all over my newly-washed car. I suppose it is rather a miracle that the birds know where the only washed car in the neighborhood is… within minutes…

Did he make the battery die in my car last week?

Start the car at work, drive 30km home, pull over to get some petrol (turn car off while filling) then can’t restart the car again.

Had to get roadside assist and a new battery.

Was that on Thursday? I had almost exactly the same thing happen, except my car wouldn’t start when I went to leave work. Maybe it was Him, maybe just the fact my battery was two years past it’s stated expiration date.🙂

I’m mostly sanguine, although I am concerned that I have a touch of black bile.

Equivalent exchange, God needs to drain a battery or two to bring birds and grass back. This is why, as we all know, everything was dead and lifeless before batteries were invented.

God also uses the energy in smoke detector batteries to start fires when he’s drunk.
