Glad to hear you were eventually "saved".  :-)

I recently caught a segment of "Inside The Actors' Studio" with several
members of the cast of "Family Guy".  Seth MacFarlane's response to one
of the standard closing questions posed by James Lipton was priceless:

Lipton: If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you
arrive at the Pearly Gates?

MacFarlane: I'm really sorry about all my followers.

Ya just gotta love ol' Seth.  :-)
