The Frito Bandito served a church in what in Texas is known as the Valley. There are border towns, political intrigue (LBJ was known as "Landslide Lyndon" because of one VERY late reporting voting box in Duval County that sent him to Congress), and for the Bandito, an opportunity to scam a little money.
Frito found out that the VBOFGBFLC was providing seed money to start new churches. By testing the waters a bit it became apparent to him that there was little supervision or report checking and the game was on (which).
Ads were placed in newspapers in border towns for part time short term pastoral positions that were available. Poof "churches" started springing up in homes of Spanish speaking folk all over the valley. The money for the support of these churches began to flow heavily to the Frito Bandito.
At the annual meeting of the VBOFGBFLC, all was well. Reports were issued saying, "We are reaching the Valley and it's ever growing Mexican population with the good news of the Gospel."
"Amen," said the Frito Bandito.
More to come...
I had never made the connection between Bill Sol and the man in the Valley. You, my friend, are a genius.
I remember reading about Bill Sol saying, "I know how to get money from the banks."
I remember hearing the FB reportedly saying, "I know how to get money from the gringos."
You are a genius. You are more of a genius than you know.

Holy, blushes and then bows slowly, basking in the light.
Thanks Rick.
Just sayin'
