LUDIC LOG

So the last time we spoke you were discussing your father.

Well, it's not that -- I didn't want to make it sound like he's some kind of cruel man.  A disciplinarian, sure, but he's a man of principle.  He always does what he thinks is right.

But maybe not always what you think is right, hmm?

I -- it's not mine to judge.  I only wish that once he would acknowledge my feelings.  Tell me he understood how it felt for me, the pain that I went through to save the world.

I would like to focus on this notion of your 'saving the world'.  Do you think this is perhaps somewhat grandiose?

I'm not trying to blow my own horn or anything.  That's just what I did.  The whole point of my dying was to save the world.  To take on the sins of all mankind, to suffer in their place.

But man still sins.  There is still suffering.  If your sacrifice did not erase the ills of the world, how can you be the Messiah?

Well, obviously, you wouldn't...er, never mind.

No, no.  Go on, please.

It's just that sometimes I wonder if you're the best person for me to talk to about these issues, because you're...you know...

A psychoanalyst?

No.  A..a Jew.

From you of all people I didn't expect anti-Semitism.

It's not anti-Semitism.  I'm Jewish myself, for goodness' sake.  It's just that, I mean, you obviously have a vested interest in not believing in my divinity.  It would challenge too many of your basic assumptions.

I hardly think I have to remind you that I have always been more than usually resistant to new ideas.

Sure.  Like that whole thing with Emma's nose.  That was great.  Real rigorous research you did there, Doctor.

Perhaps we should wrap things up for the day.  We're getting bogged down in personalities here and it's becoming counterproductive.

Whatever, dude.

Will I see you and Judas at couples therapy on Wednesday?

I guess.  If he can bear to drag his ass away from his precious TV.

All right.  I'll see you then.

I worry about that boy.  His persecution complex seems to know no limits. 

These are really excellent cigars.  People say that Dominicans are second-rate imitations of Cubans, but honestly, I think they are just taken in by marketing hype.  I would place this cigar up against any comparable brand.

Ah well.

Miss Tate, please send in my 3:00.

I must confess I rather like this fellow.  Far easier to relate to.

So, my friend, what has been troubling you?

Ever since my best friend had his stupid kid, he never pays attention to me anymore.

...this is about sex, right?
