When I am elected President, my invocation will be this: CHAPLAIN: Let us praise God. O Lord,... CONGREGATION: O Lord,... CHAPLAIN: ...ooh, You are so big,... CONGREGATION: ...ooh, You are so big,... CHAPLAIN: ...so absolutely huge. CONGREGATION: ...so absolutely huge. CHAPLAIN: Gosh, we're all really impressed down here, I can tell You. CONGREGATION: Gosh, we're all really impressed down here, I can tell You. CHAPLAIN: Forgive us, O Lord, for this, our dreadful toadying, and... CONGREGATION: And barefaced flattery. CHAPLAIN: But You are so strong and, well, just so super. CONGREGATION: Fantastic. HUMPHREY: Amen. CONGREGATION: Amen. CHAPLAIN and CONGREGATION: [singing] O Lord, please don't burn us. Don't grill or toast Your flock. Don't put us on the barbecue Or simmer us in stock. Don't braise or bake or boil us Or stir-fry us in a wok. Oh, please don't lightly poach us Or baste us with hot fat. Don't fricassee or roast us Or boil us in a vat, And please don't stick Thy servants, Lord, In a Rotissomat.

CR, thank you for your efforts. I had looked at that web site over the weekend and it wasn't there yet. You're right about the references to JC. Like I said earlier, I was so angry my memory shorted out and all I could recall was my visceral reaction, which is why I was so anxious to find it. I see now why it bothered me so much. I'm going to need to acclimatize myself to it slowly until I can read it with all my faculties functioning. Thanks again. Karen P.S. When I was watching it live, I could have sworn it lasted at least ten minutes. I'm amazed at how short it is.<g>
