Goodbye, cruel world. Do you need anything while I'm out?

My official last day at Longfellow Elementary came and passed this week. I'm leaving behind some great friends and some great kids. However, this sudden change has inspired me to pursue by next big project: Earning my masters degree in Televangelism.
It came to me on Friday. I thought to myself, "You know, Phil, you're really being taken advantage of in this situation." After I replied, "I know!" I continued. "Just imagine- someone is being paid lots of money to do this to you. You could be that person taking advantage of others!"
This morning I met with the executive producers of the CBN and gave a power point presentation for my idea. My show would consist of the following elements:

1. A giant cross with the words "He is risen... what have you done lately?"
2. Baptisms by special celebrity guests.
3. Holy water guns for the kids.
4. Communion PB and J.
5. Piggy banks in the shape of Jesus instead of offeratory plates.
6. Go-go dancers to accompany all hymns.

The pilot episode will be aired this Sunday.
