The Perfomance Will Begin
The Rain God Orchestra
As the white curtain slowly darkens, the lights dim; silencing the audience on pale darkness while they take cover for the air gets colder.
The conductor slowly comes out.
Tap, tap, tap,
Each footsteps echoes the room.
The orchestra waits for his signal at the edge of their seat, attentively waiting with out a blink.
The conductor gently hits the stand with his baton. Suddenly he points to finger with lighting speed and the bass drum thunders, roars!
The performance has begun!

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
