THE DOG OF JESUS


Sure to offend devote Muslim students everywhere, "The Dog of Jesus" purports to tell the tail of the incredible "discovery of an immortal dog with miracle healing powers".  I discovered the book on the "free rack" outside the University of Baltimore Athletic Center, where I use the gym. 

While the back jacket goes far enough to explain the general plot, I also highly recommend the writer's bio, itself the inspiring story of how one nagging Taiwanese bride inspired the greatest story ever told.  Inspirational!

Are there any aspiring and/or inspired musicians (and/or non-musicians) who'd like to record a cover of "A Girl in Port" (one of my favorite Okkervil River songs) but change the lyrics to make it "A Boy in Port"???  Just don't cut out the slack-key twang!  Every once and while I need a reminder of home.  :-)
