  • Thanks for the Memory

    Below are some photos from the website of Paul Winchell, ventriloquist, inventor, theologian.  Winchell died in his sleep at 82 early on Friday, June 24, 2005.

    Paul Winchell seems to have
    posted a topic for discussion:

    “God is a mathematical equation
       beyond our understanding.”

    God’s Bridge: The Cross.”

    be interpreted as panes of a window
