The Creature known as "Preacher"

Ashley now has a title for her show..."Ashley's Corner". The Creature was lurking in the chatroom.
I was only on for a few minutes and don't know if he posted anything but it reminded me of a whimpering dog with his nose pressed against the fence after being kicked out of the house for crapping in it one too many times

Today when I checked in to the chatroom I expressed how much I enjoyed Preacher-free radio and the failed drifter responded with "bite me". He followed that up by daring me to try saying that at Freddies. He's sunken pretty low when he is trying to intimidate people on the chatroom of the radio station that canned his butt. Mini creature came to his rescue by clearing the messages and shutting down the chatroom.

It would appear the preacher finally said the wrong thing to/about the wrong person....so long...I hear it was the final straw!!!

yeah im hearing now that he isnt coming back. no idea what the final straw was...short involuntary hiatuses (hiati?) have happenned to preach several times over the years, but it appears at least for now this one is sticking.

dare i say it.

the preacher appears to have been terminated

while i wish him happiness and peace off of the airwaves,

happy days are here again for the rest of us.

I wonder how many of those overpriced T-Shirts the Creature got stuck with and how the couple of dozen suckers that bought them feel now.

wonder how preacher night at freddies is going since hes been off air. my god wont be long hell be stuck buying his own drinks.

and whats the over and under as to how long before the liquor store on kennedy finds out hes no longer on air and finally changes that damn sign?

He was back last night... Colbert was back too after a week absence.
Preacher seemd a little more reserved. Anyone got an over or under before he goes off again?

Way more reserved. He's obviously been given his final warning from JED. Not a peep about T-shirts either.

We've been down this road countless times with him announcing some kind of kinder gentler "fresh and clean" retooling,
only to eventually go back to his old ways in a relatively short period of time. Considering that he never lets go of a grudge,and I'd bet dollars to donuts that he blames his suspension on someone else,it probably won't be too long.

ok this thread is over for me folks no more joking around. '

im saddened to say that

preach is seriously, suddenly ill today and needs all of our sincere prayers.

god bless ya preach. i hope ya come through

Amd from Max's deatjh, to FreeTime's to Preacher's death, they had only one thing in common: dying what they believed in.

Max. Freeetime and Steveed fighting for what? A ghetto???

Whatch how many of his enemies show up, saying what "a good guy he was. Dumbazzes..

The Preacher's obituary makes no mention of his three surviving sisters. Instead of asking that donations be made to a favorite cause or charity, he asks that in lieu of flowers, money should be given to the Preacher's Park fund. Even in death, he still holds a grudge and is looking for an angle.

I wonder if JED may be the one handling the arrangements? I gotta kick out him complaining and whining that the Times only mentioned the death in a tiny blurb. Maybe if he actually advertised in the Times occasionally instead of just poaching their news stories they might have given it more coverage. IMO,the Times is basically just giving him the same treatment that he gives businesses that don't advertise on JOB. For example,it's beyond pettiness and really childish when he'll mention that he went out to eat at a restaurant and then make a big deal that he can't mention the name because they're not a sponsor.

The station has been getting a steady stream of new advertisers. I agree that JED acts childish when he won't mention the names of businesses. IMO, he would be much more successful if he treated every business as a potential customer. I doubt JED is handling the arrangements. I think it's more likely that Big George or the Preacher's wife is.

Thought Preacher was single.

The "PARK FUND" may well be the back-taxes owed, uh?

Lastly, didn't someone post he was in a "disagreement" with his sister regarding the house he inherited from his dad?

If you read the notes in the Journey to Death, there were two or more posts made from his sisters.

Well, anyway, I know he's in Heaven, if there is such a place, and his worries are over. At least here. Don't know how they judge us wherever we go...but I kinda think like my Uncle Hoss, "Once you're dead, you're dead".

Have to laugh about my dad's saying...which came true. "Why should I go to his funeral, when he isn't going to mine?"

My dad didn't have a funeral for that reason. He despised them. Like I do. Like Dolly Parton won't even go to one, ever since she was little Buy the book, it's worth a read! Southeners don't mince words or cuss words.

I truly believe "Park FUND" means property taxes, and it's known by the kin to use those words to have the last laugh by Preacher.

What's ridiculous is that he goes out of his way to announce that he won't mention them. He should just say he went out to a restaurant and leave it at that or not mention it at all.

It sure took longer than usual to post the obituary.

Someone that I know who attended Preacher's memorial service said the card from his wife read, "You will not be missed, but you will be remembered." I guess she got the the last word, along with his estate.

How much does she owe on it?

Please verify if I misconstrued the many postings from the defunct, to the intermittent, to this board. Was or is it correct to say, Preacher lived alone? Is it proper for me to assume from postings he was behind in taxes on his house he inherited from his father? Is it correct he aired some type of resentment from his sister regarding the estate?

I just can't fathom him being married and living in the same inherited house his father left him, so, what's the story? I am just curious, because I was under the impression he lived alone, was a real corker, but never mentioned a wife, nor was it mentioned in posts.

I don't know, but how evil can a woman/wife be to even send a card to a dead guy? I think Preacher still had the last laugh. He knew our time is "rented here" on earth.

Kind of makes me feel guilty responding how lately he would show up or not show up for gigs on Friday. I had triple by pass at age 42. My symptoms were stress related, I thought. I slept a lot..and one day, 4 a.m., I awoke to my back feeling like a truck ran over it. My throat felt like I needed a benadryl or something. Thought it was allergies I never had before. Took the benadryl, laid down, numbness set in my arms. I got up, drove myself on country roads for eight miles, ditched the van, ran in and said, "I'm having a heart attack". They insisted it was asthma. I said, "NO freakin' way." After x-rays, doc said he was keeping me over night. My family thought I was at the flea market like I usually was...ten minutes later after 4 hours when Doc says that, they go rushing in with "clot buster" and oxygen, and I said, "What's the matter?" The nurse said, "You're having a heart attack". I said, "Will you all calm down, no shit, I told ya that at 5 a.m., what time is it, ten?"

Helicopter ride was a blast. I had two more before boarding. Asked if I felt it, said, "yeah, it tickles". It really fluttered. I knew I was in good hands when I landed at the most famous hospital in Michigan. The surgeon bitched it was smoking. I bitched back it was stress. He was younger than me, doing 50 open heart surgeries a week. I kept in touch with him after being in the hospital two weeks, and infection set in...and that was worse than waking up with tubes and a collapsed lung, infection...he had one two years later and it was in the Kalamazoo paper. Called it stress. He cut down on the number of operations per week. I told him he should take up smoking...to relieve the stress. He was eating..what else, dammn TACOs when he felt it coming. He's still my best buddy. Still asks me why I was right and he was wrong. Told him to roll out the garbage cans for his wife to guage his "stress level".

Anyway, I think Preacher was in worst shape than he led everyone to believe. He knew. I just wonder what type of person his wife was to have to send a card to her own husband? Why not flowers with a BANNER stating it? Or, is this out of the mouths of gossipers?

Probaly more than it's worth, Artie. Might be better for the clan to pay the back taxes, and share the rent.
