Dear Lord, I know I don’t talk to you very often, and when I do, it’s usually about something whiney and selfish, and well, I guess this little prayer is no exception. But I feel compelled to speak up. This year, you took my favorite screenwriter, Nora Ephron; my favorite visionary, Steve Jobs; my favorite country musician, Earl Scruggs; my favorite children’s books author, Maurice Sendak; and one of my favorite singers, Whitney Houston. And just today, you took one of my very favorite authors, Gore Vidal. I hope you’ll help me deal with all this loss. Oh. And one more thing. I want you to know that my favorite radio commentator is Rush Limbaugh.
Amen.
