Trilogy Friday: Part II: A Comparision of Justin and Job.

Let's begin with the obvious similiarities: some very awful things have happened to me. For example I've been shat on by a bird. Because of this I probably have the Avian Bird Flu(If I do and this is my last post, I'd like to thank each and everyone of you for your support. It has meant a great deal to me) or at least have this terribly disgusting feeling of having been shat on.

It is not only the physical danger I was placed in (If I do have Avian Bird Flu and this is it, I want you to know that while what we had was special, I want you to find another blogger than you can love and support. You are free---if it is in fact the avian bird flu that I have. If I'm healthy, don't even think of leaving me and my blog. But my eyes are kind of watery. Pretty sure I have the Avian Bird Flu.) It was the humiliation. When I returned to my penthouse, I had to go in the special shower that is reserved for nuclear accidents. It uses ultraviolet radiation to burn off the top layer of skin. It was the only way to get the bird stool (poopie) off, but I felt ashamed. Like the only way to de-poop myself was to give up part of my self. And I don't just mean this in the epidermal sense, I mean it like metaphorically.

Like Job, the Why is mysterious. After an informal survey I found out that not one of the smokers smokes in the alley next to Carribou, like every five minutes/eight hours a day, has ever been shat on. But I have. I who do not smoke. And by a bird with digestive problems.Carrying the Avian Bird Flu. Why, why, why?

Like Job, I am leaving behind a great story. His is named after him, and can be found in the Hebrew cannon. I am leaving behind a movie review which can be found below.

Justin and Job. Yes, I see it.

The Lord (or the bird) giveth, and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

So, if you're gonna like, expire, does that mean I can never collect on my beer bread (see my priorities are like, all in order)
