True story, I used to be Jimmy Swaggart’s pool boy, sort of. His maintenance man would regularly bring a sample of water in from his home pool to the swimming pool supply store where I worked part-time as a teenager, and I would test run several tests of the water quality. ---

This drama had me remembering a Politico article from almost exactly a year ago about the power that Falwell has over Liberty and the forces inside that were trying to remove him. I think this is a continuation of the same battle [https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/09/09/jerry-falwell-liberty-university-loans-227914](https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/09/09/jerry-falwell-liberty-university-loans-227914) ---

The FB meme I’m seeing has a photo of Falwell, and of the pool boy cleaning the pool. The writing says: “He layeth me beside pool water His rod and staff comfort me” ---

(Stolen from twitter) - > Falwell would comment, but he’s not at Liberty to discuss any details. Every so often, I wonder if I’m a good person. And then I find myself giggling like an idiot at a story like this and realize that I’m pettier than I wish I were and that I still need a lot of personal growth. And I will work on that as soon as I’m done giggling. ---
