Dude and Dude: Pastor Tense

“Yo!”

“Dude?”

“I see OC got a letter from the pastor.”

“The pastor?

“He’s not in trouble or nothin’, if that’s what you’re worried about.”

“Whaddaya mean, you don’t, dude? I mean, what does this guy …”

“Right. The book, by some people. And when’s the last time anybody wrote anythin’ in the book?”

“Right. Dude, if that’s not the past, then I’m a DeLorean. And who better to learn about the past from than a pastor? So I ask you again. When did OC start studyin’ history?”

“About the time that a dude of my acquaintance inspired him to study the origin and functions of the delete key, dude.”

“Oh … yeah … right …”

      “What?”

      “Did you know that split personalities run in the family?”

      “What family?”

      “Which one do you think? The Cleavers, of course!”

    1. Karen, I suspect that if the pastor were actually to find out about this little piece of fiction, he’d tend towards an ecclesiastical interpretation of a Dalek. “Ex-com-mun-i-cate …”
