	Joe tells of being a televangelist.  He invented a new
religion, wrote his own revision of the Bible, was on TV around the
clock, became immensely popular, got tired of it, drove off one night,
ran out of gas in the desert, his car exploded into flame but was not
consumed; later, he got in, drove back to his compound.
