Direct Line to God Discovered in Baltimore!

Tref · 03-27-2008, 02:18 PM

From the Baltimore Sun

... the blue-and-white sign above it says not "Phone" but "Prayer." And there's no way to call anyone -- on Earth, at least -- because there isn't a pay phone inside, but instead a fold-down kneeler like you'd find in a church.

... it's been on its site -- a grassy island just off Cathedral Street, north of the Meyerhoff -- since July, when it went up as part of the Baltimore Sculpture Project. It's one of 30 pieces of public art installed on downtown sites last year as a way of extending the spirit of the Artscape festival beyond its usual summer weekend.

"It seems so public a place, and praying is so personal an issue," said Lack, 20, a MICA sophomore

Directions inside Prayer Booth:

Warning! Do not stare straight into the Direct line to God mouthpiece!

To call Security, dial 127

Do not bore Jesus with frivolous prayers!

If you do not know the extension of the party you are calling, please reference ext. list:

St. Bernadette, Ext. 15

Daniel, Ext. 2218

Prayer Booth

Has no prayer booth

Clare Boothe

Things most commonly prayed for by me:

1. Solid gold shoes

2. Peace on earth. And if not on earth, then some other planet, like, perhaps, Venus.

3. The love of a good woman, or the love of two bad woman.

4. To look good in a three corner hat, like this guy

5. To be able to do this with my fingers.

6. Cookies and milk

7. A secure future.

8. More tacos

9. An all expense paid trip to the vacation city of San Zhi

10. The arrest and conviction of Boss Jim Gettys!

Remind me again why we've never met Tref.

Hey, some of us have...

BTW, Tref, you're simply on fire this week.

Yes, and it turns out he's just some dude and not, as you might imagine, a random image/text generator.

Some of us are jealous of the some of you that have.

he's almost like those tv commercials SNL used to run. you were never quite sure if they were serious or not until it takes that hard left at the corner of "logic" and "messin with your mind"

and a half

When was there a Tref sighting, and why was I not informed???

Sigh.

I knew there was a reason I always clicked on all of the links in Tref's posts to make sure I didn't miss something.

Heheh, my office's filter wouldn't let me thru to that one. Hope I remember to check it at home.
