40 Days of Laughter - Day 25

Back in the early 90's I was all about Uncle L (LL Cool J). That in itself is pretty funny, but listening to the lyrics of the song all these years later are even more funny. In the mist of ripping and killing at will (lyrically speaking of course) "L" takes the time to stop and thank God for giving him the strength to hit hard. Too funny...

40 Days of Laughter - Day 11

At youth group we are in the middle of a sex series. To lighten the mood for week one, we invited students to share some of their best pick up lines (as long as they weren't vulgar). It was a pretty sad showing. Hopefully they were just nervous and have a little game! Here's a few... some have been around for a while. Feel free to add your own, especially if one of them worked for you!

• Are you a magnet cuz im attracted to you
• Do you have any raisins? No? How about a date?
• I hope you know CPR, because you take my breath away.
• Girl, you better have a license, cuz you are driving me crazy!
• Let's make like a fabric softener and snuggle.
• Did you fart? Because you blew me away.
• Do you have a sunburn, or are you always this hot?
• If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put U and I together.
• If this bar is a meat market, you must be the prime rib.
• I know I'm not a grocery item but I can tell when you're checking me out.
• I'm like chocolate pudding, I look like crap but im as sweet as can be.
• Are you an alien? because you just abducted my heart.
• I hope there's a fireman around, cause you're smokin'!
• If you were a booger I'd pick you first.
• Excuse me, I think you have something in your eye. Nope, it's just a sparkle.
• Do you know karate? 'Cause your body is really kickin'.
• Hey baby you're so fine you make me stutter, wha-wha-what's your name?
• Is it a sin that you stole my heart?

and my new personal favorite... I might not be the best looking guy here but I'm the only one talking to you!

Have you had breakfast? If you haven't maybe you can fill up on this!

40 Days of Laughter - Day 8

Remember sitting around late at night and sharing "ghost stories" with your friends? One of the scariest things we dealt with growing up was walking past two grave stones about 20 yards from the road. My friends and I would always peer over as we walked by. They were only semi-visible due to vegetation and they glimmered in the moon-light. When I went past them when I was by myself I usually ran :).

To me I find all the ghost hunting shows humorous. They usually point to a speck of light or a weird sound as "paranormal activity." In this obviously fake video they say that moving furniture is "paranormal." What do you think?

40 Days of Laughter - Day 7

40 Days of Laughter - Day 2

Inside Jokes are so funny... to insiders. You would certainly appreciate this post a little more if you knew Steve Adams. Steve is a fun, motorcycle riding, farming, outdoorsy, spiritually mature, love to have as a friend, kinda guy. At the same time, he has this signature power look that can make you squirm in fear if you get on his bad side! You know you are getting to a healthy place in a relationship when you can start cutting up with someone with little fear of rejection or physical pain. Case in point would be the following picture...


Brandon, who is Steve's son, came in and informed me of his dad checking out the new Cabela's catalog and commenting how good the Real Tree swimsuits looked. If you know Steve, he is a man who has a thing with camouflage. It can be found on 80% of his wardrobe, his truck, and even his motorcycle. In fact he certainly deserves the nickname "Sneaky Steve." He is the reason for the shirt "You can't see me!"

Now if you met Steve, you would think twice of picking on him... because well... it could be a pretty painful experience. Knowing he was a good sport made imposing his picture, with the help of Photoshop, a joy. His response was, "Definitely my style. Every thing goes with camo, looks like I have lost some weight."

Gotta love that guy!

40 Days of Laughter - Day 1

Friends,

Lately I've been feeling like a Debbie Downer, Sad Susan, Mopey Marvin. You get the point. I've been feeling weighed down due to several major and heavy concerns going on all around me. Over the last few weeks several people I know have dealt with the death of loved ones, others are struggling in their marriages, and we have been coming alongside some of our students as they battle some heavy issues.

I have been reading through the book of Luke and today read through chapters 17 and 18. Initially I focused more on some strategies of prayer. As I began praying through the issues of life verses 15-17 from chapter 18 came back to me.

¹⁵ People were also bringing babies to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. ¹⁶ But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. ¹⁷ Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.

The magnitude of life began to weigh me down so I decided to commit to finding something to laugh at for the next 40 days. Journey with me. I hope you will share some stories with me and together we can have some fun!



I spent some time on these creative guys web page and they are pretty funny! Enjoy yourself! Check them out at http://rhettandlink.com/. See you tomorrow!
