Larry:         Hi God its me Larry Girard here. I just wanted to phone and talk to
you again. I talked to you last week about…Oh wait first I want to
thank you for the great day, so as I was saying I had a list of thinks I
was talking to you about…Oh hang on there before I get to that again
I want to ask you for forgiveness. So like I was saying I was talking
to you last week and I asked you whether I should buy the Chrysler
mini van or the Chevy van. Oh by the way if you could see to it that I
get the raise in pay I was asking for. If I get the raise I will take it as
a sign that you want me to buy the Chevy. You know God I have
called you the last seven weeks and talked to you about this, so I hope
to have the raise soon. Goodbye.
