Well wadda ya know, Samuel P Bush is buried here in my hometown
Samuel P. Bush Former president of Buckeye Steel and grandfather of George Bush senior.

(see image below - Greenlawn Cemetery, Columbus, Ohio)

I have been out recently recording EVP's (Electronic Voice Phenomenon - ie, ghosts) and captured a few on tape (when I get my webserver back online will post them - pretty eerie). It all got me to thinking - maybe I should make a fake EVP near his grave....

What should we have his ghost say?
'gwb suuuuuckkkkssss'?

Toss out your own ideas, and I will see what I can put together (unless somone else would like to make it!)

5. We could donate it to one of the tribal casinos in New Mexico
They could display it in a real nice glass case right on the gambling floor!

Could be quite an attraction.

13. Or we can give it to dem candidates to rub for good luck
They just have to remember to oil it once in a while.

I could see Kerry holding the skull and rubbing it in the debates. * would not know what to do - oh wait, he is confused anyway as it is....

6. So you've discovered Ohio's dirty little secret
Let me one up the Dixie Chicks. I'm ashamed that anyone who contributed to George W. Bush's DNA strand ever resided in Ohio. Where's an industrial accident when you need one?

By the way, the EVP should say "George, Satan told me to tell you good work in Iraq and he can't wait to meet you in person."
