His family now confirms that the Bay Area evangelist was moved into an assisted care facility for rehabilitation. Meanwhile, the fate of his radio show — which has gone into reruns since the stroke — is up in the air. Perhaps Camping could use this quiet time to more finely hone his soothsaying abilities, starting with a far less ambitious campaign that warns fellow nursing home residents of the impending “FISHSTICK WEDNESDAY: The cafeteria guarantees it.” [AP, photo via AP]
