"Hey, Tom."

"Hey, Paul."

"How was the fishing this weekend?"

"Not bad, not bad."

"Were you up at Bear Lake?"

"Naw, Two Rivers Lake."

"Huh.  Not bad, you said?"

"Yeah, not great.  Not bad."

"Say, I been meaning to ask you something."

"Shoot."

"Whattya you think of Jesus?"

"Jesus?  Jesus Christ, you mean?"

"Yeah, that one."

"Aw, he's all right."

"All right?"

"Yeah, he's all right with me."

"Just all right?"

"Yeah, I'd say he's just all right.  I mean, he's nothing special.  I've had better.  But I've had worse.  He's just all right."

"Yeah?"

"With me, I mean.  Jesus is just all right with me."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah."

"Well, you know some fellas don't like him so much."

"I know it."

"And then there's other fellas think he's just the greatest thing since sliced bread."

"I hear ya."

"Whattya think about that?"

"To be perfectly honest with you, I don't care what they may say."

"No?"

"I don't even rightly care what they may do."

"You know some of them people like to go up there at Bear Lake, who really like Jesus.  A lot."

"I don't care where they may go."

"Now, I know it, but..."

"I honestly don't even care what you may know.  Nothin' personal.  I'm just telling you that Jesus is just all right.  With me.  That's it.  Not so good, not so bad.  So-so.  Cosi-cosa, like they say over there in Europe.  Just...all right.  With me."

"Oh, yeah?"

"Yeah."

"Say, you goin' over to Bill Deaton's place this Sunday?  I hear he's gonna let old Hank Remlinger sit at the welcome table."

"I'm gonna sit at the welcome table."

"Do tell!  When?"

"One of these days."

"Hallelujah."
