Jim has tatoos?
I was imagining his performances in here to be the equivalent of
James Mitchum's creepy "preacher" in an old, scary black-and-white
film released in the 1950s.
Robert Mitchum. 1954. Night of the Hunter from the novel by Davis Grubb.
The author was from up the road in Moundsville. The story is set in
this area.

That character had L-O-V-E on one
hand, H-A-T-E on the other...liked to off folks that didn't
believe in him.
Believing in him had nothing to do with it. He killed prostitutes and
dancers because he thought they were evil and he killed widows for their
money. The guy wasn't even a real preacher.

Don't you get anything right?
Did they ever catch him, or is he still running around the hills of
Moundsville?
I can see how you'd become confused. It was a movie, Brian. You can
rest easy now.

Was he a ham preacher?
No, he was a ham salad sandwich.

You may now continue your red-hatted monkey routine. Perhaps the old
organ grinder will crank up another tune so you can dance for us.

Thanks, Dave. You can always be counted on to call names and ridicule
people (profile).

If you'd like to play games, asking about whether a fictional character
from a movie has been captured or whether he was a "ham preacher", I can
play it your way. If you play the little, red-hatted monkey, you'll be
treated as a little, red-hatted monkey.
