\nQuestions for God When I Meet Him
\nBy Kristin Chenoweth<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Who killed JonBen\u00e9t? And does she pretty much own the pageant circuit up here?
\n\u2022 Did Marilyn kill herself or was it a Kennedy?
\n\u2022 Did Lee Harvey Oswald really act alone?
\n\u2022 Seriously…was it the cookies?
\n\u2022 Why is forgiveness so dang hard?
\n\u2022 Why is slapstick so dang funny?
\n\u2022 Who is the sadistic genius behind cellulite? Lord, please tell me you did not have anything to do with that.
\n\u2022 Does restless legs syndrome actually exist? And is there something about it that compels the person to sit in the front row?
\n\u2022 How on earth (or elsewhere) do you keep track of everyone?
\n\u2022 Why would someone go to all the trouble it takes to be a serial killer? Is there always some kind of Sweeney Todd backstory?
\n\u2022 Where are the mates to most of my socks?
\n\u2022 Why did Mom have to battle cancer twice? Seriously. Once was more than enough.
\n\u2022 Does sugar cause cancer? And if not, what does?
\n\u2022 Does sugar cure cancer? And if not, what does?
\n\u2022 Why do so many people find homosexuality scarier than war?
\n\u2022 What if you made it so that hate would cause hemorrhoids? Just an idea.
\n\u2022 Do you have Leonard Bernstein’s cell number? I need to talk to him right away. Also, Puccini. And Ethel Merman.
\n\u2022 And one more thing, Heavenly Father. Are you proud of me?
