...ooops, Bob Tilton, our local (Dallas) "Word of Faith" "preacher".

| Ah, Bob Tilton, the original "squishy face" preacher... as in, if I
squish my face up real good Jay-sus will most certainly hear my
prayers. Run off of national TV for being, um, less than honest
about what he did with all those "prayer offerings".
Also used to wonder why when he spoke in tongues, God chose to
make him sound like an auctioneer.
Strange strange guy.

At first, I thought this topic was about Bob Palmer, boy am I sadly
mistaken.

Actually, this isn't an answering machine. A computer answers and asks
if you want the latest inspirational message, speaking in tongues,
Rev. Bob's "miracle garments", etc.
Most everyone in Dallas has called it. It used to be busy for hours
on end. I still consider it a lift to call once in a while.

| When are they gonna repaint the tower along 635?

239.9 | The one at I-35 & I-635? | ROWLET::AINSLEY | Less than 150 kts. is TOO slow! | Mon Jan 16 1995 16:01 | 3 |
| What tower?

| The big multi-colored striped thing. I know it's along I-635, I'm not
sure how close it is to I-35. Maybe it's more like a grain elevator.

| I only travel 635 between Central (75) and the Tollway these days.

| Last time I saw that grain elevator it had been repainted. It's white
now. I believe they redid it soon after Tilton's fame crashed.
(I-35 and Valley View/Valwood Pkwy area in Farmer's Branch).

239.13 | Both were filled with rocks (Bob's head & the Grain Elevator) | SCAPAS::GUINEO::MOORE | I'll have the rat-on-a-stick | Mon Jan 30 1995 17:42 | 6 |

Actually they repainted it because the Carrollton (Tx) city council
enforced an ordinance against it. And it's on I-35, not 635.
FYI, the grain elevator is now an indoor rock-climbing training
facility. Much more useful, if you ask me...
