Ocho Walks with Me
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_lightning_strikes_jesus_statue
I remember waking up in the van when my band was on tour many moons ago and seeing this statue for the first time. I remember thinking "man, that Jesus is COCKY" and then falling back asleep. Since then I've seen it several times and just recently learned it was nationally known (mostly by snarky white people) and even found its way into Bill Maher's "Religulous" (and more snarky white people found out about it). Well, last night "touchdown Jesus", or as I like to call it, "Jesus Ocho Cinco" was struck by lightning and burned to the ground. Yeah, it happened in real life, in Ohio and not on LOST! Pretty creepy, man. The only suggestion I have is maybe rebuild it but have it be the ACTUAL Ocho Cinco.
