Does The AoS HQ Need Its Own Chaplain?
— DrewM

A pastor whose disappearance from a small town in upstate New York triggered a search by police and the FBI was found earlier today (Friday) inside an Ohio strip club.
Police said that when the Rev. Craig S. Rhodenizer, 46, was confronted by an officer, he began crying and said he couldn't remember anything about the 36 hours he was missing.
But dancers at the club remembered Rhodenizer. They told investigators that Rhodenizer spent two hours drinking, soliciting dances and making threatening comments. He also said he wanted to take the dancers back to his motel, according to the police report. In his car was a bottle of Bacardi rum.

Okay, the rum is a problem but if we can get him to take up Valu-Right Vodka and get him out on a hobo hunt or two, I think hes perfect for us.

1 Well at least he's not a pedophile, right?

2 Did he get any of the strippers to let him sob in their lap?

All of them? Brass balls, man....

No, but we could really use a Chaplain.

5 See, for AoS Lifestyle^tm aficionados, a tittie-bar is to us as shoe-store to women.

We want to see every pair, and if possible, we want to try them all on.

(Thanks to Rodney Carrington for that joke.)

6 Beat me to that one, XBradTC, but can we make Charlie a posthumous honorary moron while we're at it?

7 No, but we could really use a Chaplain.

XBradTC,

Actually, a copy editor would help. Oh wait, that's just me.

Thanks.

8 I'm ambivalent on a Charlie, but really, who would be the chaplain here? The Good Lord knows we need one. I'm sure there's at least a deacon in the crowd...

9 Girl strippers? So he was a protestant?

10 Not really on-topic, but I'll pretend it is.

Man Arrested for ... well, there's really no way to put this delicately -- they caught him violating a picnic table.

11 a tittie-bar is to us as shoe-store to women.

Hey, now, don't discriminate against those of us who appreciate the joys of both.

12 Eh. Anybody that drinks rum will drink vodka.

Get him to fill out an application.

Posted by: runninrebel at March 30, 2008 02:36 PM (o/KrO)

I'm going to say this just one more time: I did not disappear and spend 36 hours at titty bars and cheap motels while drunk.

Not once.

Now I have to get back to the business of saving my congregation's souls. Thank you.

Excerpt of cross-examination of Rev. Craig S. Rhodenizer:

"When I said 'not once' , it depends on what you mean by 'not once'. " (smiles)

15 Couldn't one of the morons just dress up like a Chaplain ? Who knows what kinda gear is available in the closets of moron nation .....

35 hours, maybe, 37 hours possibly. But 36-nope.

17 Bu any chance, this guy isn't John McCain's minister, is he?

'Cause that would be FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!

19 I've been wasting time reading some of the sentencing memorandums for convicted eco-terrorists. But for the fact of the millions of dollars of damage they cause, these guys are real knuckleheads. Their "comuniques" sound like jokes. Lock them up and throw away the key because none of they have changed their position.

Yeah, it's been 16 years -- but I was a real live chaplain once.

21 As a pastor, I can really understand the desire to just run away and disappear. It sounds like this guy is burning out. I can myself doing something like that, although I hope that I would choose a destination better than a stripclub.

Posted by: John at March 30, 2008 03:06 PM (ew5fu)

22 Sounds like the Rev. attended the "Packman Jones School of Adult Entertainment"...just two questions:

1. Did he or a member of his flock/posse pack some heat?
2. Did he "make it rain"

Somebody needs to check out the church's funds....

23 Oh, great, not one, but two men of the cloth here. I'm gonna burn...

Posted by: XBradTC at March 30, 2008 03:22 PM (E5mM5)

24 Don't worry 'bout me. I'm a seminary dropout.

25 I hope that I would choose a destination better than a stripclub

I think many of the commenters here might argue that there are few destinations better.

26 Pastor John -- sounds like you need an extended vacation.

I can relate from an entirely non-religious and bachelor perspective. I can't count the number of times I've gotten in the car to pick up a loaf of bread, and at least semi-seriously started doing the math on how far away I could get from my current life on the cash I had in my wallet.

The pressures of life these high-tech days are many, given that so much of the average careers these days rarely seem offer tangible proof of accomplishment; there is no finished piece of carpentry; no tilled field; no full trap line to indicate to us that the hard work of the day has led to progress.

The secret to my sanity so far is to never bring work home, to take a full contiguous 2-day weekend off every week (whatever days those fall on) and to take vacation a couple times a year.

You cannot live your work 24/7/365 and maintain your center.

Well, if there was ever a bunch that needed spiritual guidance, it's a bunch of drooling morons.

Posted by: XBradTC at March 30, 2008 03:33 PM (E5mM5)

Pastor John, or Hit and Run,

Who would be our patron saint?

Posted by: XBradTC at March 30, 2008 03:36 PM (E5mM5)

29 That's what I like about this place...each to his own ability!

Posted by: lonetown at March 30, 2008 03:46 PM (4rdee)

Sorry, not my thing, patron saints.

I'm sure there are a few scandi patron saints from which to choose, however.

DrewM, it's Val-U-Rite Vodka...that's VAL-U-RITE.

Poser.

He also said he wanted to take the dancers back to his motel...

Well, duhhh, even I know enough about pastorology to know you can hardly save their souls in a strip club, now can you? The man was doing God's work, as he understood it... after a bottle of rum.

I'd be willing to donate my slutty nun costume. Haven't worn it in weeks.

Man Arrested for ... well, there's really no way to put this delicately -- they caught him violating a picnic table.

Sweet baby Jesus. Is there nothing on this earth that some man, somewhere, won't stick his penis on or in? A Cactus? A wood chipper? A bear trap?

"he began crying and said he couldn't remember anything about the 36 hours he was missing"

I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt, and assume that he was crying because he'd spent loads of money at a strip club, and couldn't remember a thing. Now THAT's a tragedy. At least the Rev. should have his memories to comfort him.

Guess they call it "demon rum" for a reason, huh?

Not like rotten potato-peel piss, or whatever it is you pussies drink.

39 re Ace's new crusade for respectability. Maybe he should run this on blog (dunno if it counts the comments. http://www.oneplusyou.com/q/v/blog_cuss We did pretty well: Around 69.2% of the pages on your website contain cussing.This is 669% MORE than other websites who took this test.

Herein lies the problem. He was found at the KC lounge in Dayton. I've been to the KC. It's like a hobo hunting ground, but with fat ugly hobos with tits. If he wanted to take anything back to the hotel, his problems run deeper than can be fixed.

41 Patron Saint? It's got to be Rasputin, don't you think? He is an archetype for the AoS lifestyle. Not to many hobos wandering loose in his day, IYKWIMAITYD.

"Lord, grant me chastity and continence, but not yet"

St. Augustine of Hippo.

Seems like a proper candidate.
