As I waited for longer than I wanted to for the 450 bus from Salem to Haymarket this morning, I noticed that the Wesley Church across the street from me had a sign advertising who was going to be giving the sermon Sunday morning at the 9:45 AM service:

PREACHING
JACK
LOMBARDO


As I pondered it more and more, having little else to do, it seemed to me like a nickname: Preaching Jack Lombardo.

For instance:

"Yeah, I've heard of Preachin' Jack. But he ain't been seen in these parts since I was knee-high to a grasshopper."

or

"Laaadiees and gentlemen! The heavyweight cham-peeen of the world: Preaching! ... Jack! ... LomBAAARRRdo!!!"

Anyway.

I dreamed last night that I was at an ice skating rink with my youngest stepbrother, and that while I was there a couple unwelcome ex-girlfriends kept calling me up on my cellphone, to my extreme irritation. Incidentally, my friend Spex worked at the skating rink as an overzealous security guy, who would pull a gun on kids whenever they did something unsafe.

That works, too!

What do you, the viewers at home, think? Add your own! You can even Photoshop a picture of SJC to go along with it!

to me it sounds like a movie. such as: waking ned divine. or that someone else is preaching the lost book of the bible: jack lombardo.

Or like Saving Private Ryan, or Good Will Hunting, with those nice boys from Cambridge.

I do like the sound of Preachin' Jack.

I don't know; I never felt the need to watch "Providence," not even when Buddy Cianci was going to have a cameo.

Julishka mentioned movies:

"Preaching Jack Lombardo" (2003; PG13). Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Cameron Diaz. After the death of his wife, a Methodist minister rediscovers love, faith, and the value of friendship in a small New England town.

And, next week: Preaching Jack steps into his role as precinct chaplain, counseling Officer Spex (Don Knotts) after an unfortunate shooting incident at the municipal skating rink.

my friend Spex worked at the skating rink as an overzealous security guy, who would pull a gun on kids whenever they did something unsafe.
