Gov. Quinn in his “Sistine Chapel” look. Moses the Lawgiver has horns similar to the govs. And there is the painting of God reaching out his finger to touch mankind. Seems no one in the Pride Parade wants to be on the receiving end of that.

“I consign you to heck!” — Dilbert’s boss giving props to his evil twin, Phil, the Prince of Insufficient Light, for his assistance in the budget process.
Young man, there’s no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground,
I said, young man, ’cause you’re new in town.
There’s no need to be unhappy.
It’s fun to stay at the y-m-c-a…
Young man, there’s a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you’re short on your dough.
You can stay there, and I’m sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.
Once I had a love and it was divine.
Soon found out I was losing my mind.
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind.
Mucho mistrust.
Love’s gone behind.
You, yes YOU! Don’t stand too close to me! I may be marching with your group but that doesn’t mean that I want to be here with you. Keep a minimum of a 20 foot distance between us.
