Rant From An Old Geezer

One day I was flipping through the TV channels When I happened To chance upon Oprah Who was interviewing this suspicious-looking fellow, Who turned out to be some kind of “new-age” guru, So I stopped And I watched As this guy rambled on. And he had a book out (of course), which would sell by the millions Now that Oprah had smiled on him. Well, after a bit I started to move on to some more intellectual stuff But I stopped, Because Oprah asked this guy this question: “What happens when we die?” She asked, As if she actually thought that he knew! Well, I picked my jaw up off the floor while this guy spouted some nonsense, Which I didn’t hear over the shouting in my head of the things that I wanted to scream at Oprah, Which was, to wit: WHAT ARE YOU ASKING HIM FOR?!?!! HE DOESN’T KNOW!!!! HE HASN’T DIED AND COME BACK!!!! NOBODY KNOWS!!!! But I didn’t since, you know, she was on TV and wouldn’t have heard me.
