- It all began when my father first saw the Djinn. Before I could warn him, he said "Jesus H. Christ on a bicycle." And there he was. How was I going to explain this to
- mother? But before I could formulate a plan, Jesus dismounted and strode toward us. "'Sup?" he asked. Father was even more confused, seeing firsthand both a Genie and now Jesus.
- father was more confused because Jesus was using early 21st century slang. Where were the trumpets? How did Jesus get through the border between Mexico and Arizona?
- These were all questions that would never be revealed for another 2000 years. Jesus took his father and made him promise not to tell anyone a little secret he had kept for a very
- long time. He really was coming again, not as savior of the world, but as Jason Forsyth of Bennetville, a mild-mannered fish farmer. That didn't have the zing that Peter wanted
- so he gave him a buxom blonde wife with a penchant for overspending, and a zany neighbor that always stopped by with some hair-brained scheme to get rich. One day, Jason's fish
- evolved into a reptilian humanoid. I was mowing the lawn when I saw the creature crawl out of Jason's pool. I thought that maybe if I could catch the thing, I really could get rich
- . I hid behind a shrubbery and attempted to use a tree frog call. With a soft squelch, the lizard man approached my backyard. I leaped out and grabbed its slippery ankle. Pay-dirt!
- Literally! I freaked the lizard man out so bad he crapped his loin cloth and ran off hissing into the underbrush. I gingerly brushed off his cucumber sized turd and
- wore the loincloth on my head as a trophy. Banging my chest and standing on the park bench, I roared so loud I disrupted the nearby birthday party. I threw the cake on the ground.

Very nice. I like the juxtaposition of Jesus' second coming and Darwinian evolution.
