Preachers love to get Jesus stuff. Just ask them, they’ll tell you. One of the former preacher’s wives at our church once got a velvet Jesus pillow. That was probably the best gift she ever got!
Seriously, though. Our current preacher and one of our associate preachers (who happens to be my mother) really do love tacky [...]

Wow. Eleven days without a new blog post. My minions readers must feel very let-down. Well, don’t despair! I bring you glad tidings and great homemade Christmas gifts!
I love love love to receive handmade gifts. Yes, I know that pretty much everyone says that. I suspect many of them just say that because they do [...]

Have you all heard of this Twitter thing? I think it’s some sort of cult. What you do is, you find all these “followers” to subscribe to your Tweets. (Did you ever, in your wildest dreams, think you’d see that last sentence in anything other than text-based porn?) Then you send out Twitters to your [...]

As promised, tonight I am bringing you a guest crafter. My friend Joy made these darling wood Christmas ornaments.
Aren’t those great? Okay, here’s how she did it. She bought the pre-cut wooden ornaments; you can get them unfinished at any craft/hobby store. Next, she traced around them on a piece of patterned paper and cut [...]

Before I continue with the eagerly-anticipated Parts 5 and 6 of my Easy Handmade Christmas Gifts Series, I have to tell you all something that I just noticed. Apparently, WordPress has a blog category about “blogging”. If I wasn’t so afraid that I’d forget the funny creative things I want to tell everyone tonight, then I’d certainly [...]

A few weeks ago, I bought some meat from one of my neighbor’s kids, who was selling it for an FFA fundraiser. Incidentally, did you know that FFA no longer stands for Future Farmers of America? True story; it’s just random letters that don’t stand for anything now. But it’s still a good organization. Aaaaanyway, [...]

Welcome to Parts 3 and 4 of my Easy Handmade Christmas Gifts series. I decided to combine these 2 posts because my brain is racing with so many posts that I want to make.
The first item was kind of an accident. Last night I intended to make some of these door hangings that I saw [...]

An unfortunate proofing error – and helpful information about weather.
Posted in Funny, Funny Posts, tagged Humor, Random on December 1, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I ran across this unfortunate proof-reading error in our local paper.
Unless it was intentional. Which begs the question, is the question mark because they aren’t sure that he’s theirs or because they aren’t sure he’s a son? It makes the time that I mis-spelled my own name in a help wanted ad not seem quite [...]
