Thursday, May 17. Jahannam. Amid swirling rumors, Beelzebub himself announced today that the Gates of Hell will need to be widened to accomodate the posterior portion of Jerry Falwell. Fallwell, currently stewing in Hades waiting for the Angel of Darkness' final decision on the Lakers' last minute trade request, could not be reached for comment. "Look, we've always wanted him, there was never any question about it," announced Lilith, "it was really just a question of timing and infrastructure." Speaking off the record, former Gehenna seismotologist Dr. Fu Manchu suggested that there had also been a question as to whether the Lake of Fire
could sustain the intense storms predicted should the televangelist relocate. "Look, it's hot enough down here, and that's one serious windbag. And with hurricane season coming? I'm just sayin..." Pressed for additional comment, Azazel would only add, "We thought we'd be fine after Brando squeezed in, but we had no idea of the extra bags this guy was packing!" Dr. Death quickly added, "But hey, we don't discriminate down here, not like those blowhards upstairs who insist you dye your hair blond and wear white even after Labor Day. Look, we've been looking to bring this guy into the organization for decades now, I mean, who else in the last 30 years has done more damage to the other team? Besides, we would have had to do this sooner or later. It was always Limbaugh or Falwell, Limbaugh or Falwell, 'who's next?' Afraid I lost my shirt on that bet!" A spokesman for the Eternal Inferno's Prime Contractor, Halliburton, said that the original gates, a smaller knockoff of Rodin's masterpiece, would likely be scrapped all together in favor of a composite roughly resembling Williamson, West Virginia's flood wall.
