Good Friday To You All!!!
 

Good Friday, also called Holy Friday or Great Friday, is the Friday before Easter (Easter always falls on a Sunday). It commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus at Calvary.

 

Six Things About Life I Learned from the Easter Bunny:

Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.
Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.
There's no such thing as too much candy.
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.
Some body parts should be floppy.

 

Believe it or not, the following announcements actually appeared in various church bulletins. 

1. Don't let worry kill you -- let the church help. 
2. Thursday night - Potluck supper. Prayer and medication to follow. 
3. Remember in prayer the many who are sick of our church and community. 
4. For those of you who have children and don't know it, we have a nursery downstairs. 
5. The rosebud on the altar this morning is to announce the birth of David Alan Belzer, the sin of Rev. and Mrs. Julius Belzer. 

6. This afternoon there will be a meeting in the South and North ends of the church. Children will be baptized at both ends. 
7. Tuesday at 4:00 PM there will be an ice cream social. All ladies giving milk will please come early. 
8. Wednesday the ladies liturgy will meet. Mrs. Johnson will sing "Put me in my little bed" accompanied by the pastor. 
9. Thursday at 5:00 PM there will be a meeting of the Little Mothers Club. All ladies wishing to be "Little Mothers" will meet with the Pastor in his study. 
10. This being Easter Sunday, we will ask Mrs. Lewis to come forward and lay an egg on the altar. 

11. The service will close with "Little Drops of Water." One of the ladies will start quietly and the rest of the congregation will join in. 
12. Next Sunday a special collection will be taken to defray the cost of the new carpet. All those wishing to do something on the new carpet will come forward and do so. 
13. The ladies of the church have cast off clothing of every kind. They can be seen in the church basement Saturday. 
14. A bean supper will be held on Tuesday evening in the church hall. Music will follow. 
15. At the evening service tonight, the sermon topic will be "What is Hell?" Come early and listen to our choir practice.

Peep jousting
The messy and largely self-entertaining game, "Peeps Jousting" is played with a microwave oven. One takes two Peeps, and licks the right-hand side of each until sticky. A toothpick is thereby adhered to each Peep, pointing forward like a jousting lance. The Peeps are then set in a microwave, squared off against one another, and heated up. As they expand, the toothpick lances thrust toward each opponent, and the winner is the one that does not pop and deflate (or fizzle and die). Both usually are eaten after the competition, however, regardless who the victor was, calling into question the nature of "winning" in such a circumstance. This folkloric tradition has been noted by the Washington Post. Peeps jousting has also been called such names as "mortal peep fight."

Last Tuesday, as President Bush got off the presidential helicopter, Marine One, in front of the White House, he was carrying a baby piglet under each arm. The marine on duty squared up, saluted and said in a very typical, sharp marine’s voice, “Nice pigs, sir.”

The president replied, “These are not pigs! These are authentic Arkansas Razorback Hogs. I got one for Senator Hillary Clinton and I got one for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.”

The marine squared up again, salutes and says in a very typical, sharp marine’s voice, “Excellent trade, sir.”

Snapped a shot of this yesterday, while over at the local Cemetery...."Desert Steve" Ragsdale was apparently quite a character I found out when I got home and hit the Googleization button.

The "D.C." referred to is a funky little burg in the middle of nowhere called Desert Center.
