Just for Laughs

I came across this video of Chondra Pierce the other day and it's hilarious.   If you've never seen Chondra Pierce she's a Christian comedian and seriously one of the funniest ladies in the comedy business and this is one of her best. 

Oh Sock, Why Do You Mock Me...

I started a second pair of baby socks for Youngest yesterday and was already finished with the first sock by this afternoon.   I was pretty proud of it since I had finished it so fast (usually it takes me at least two days to finish one sock..I knit slow).   I couldn't believe my luck!   I figured I must be getting better at this since I was so obviously moving much faster than usual.  

So here I was feeling rather proud of myself when I decided to try the sock on Youngest's foot.   I found that while the cuff fit perfectly, the heel was right smack in the middle of his foot.   It didn't fit, at all.   Then I realized why this project had gone so quickly for me.  You see, when it comes to knitting the instep and the toe the pattern says something like this K6, K2tog, around.   Next row, Knit.  Next row, K5, K2tog, around.  And then you continue on like that, knitting every other row.   And that's the part that I forgot.  So instead of decreasing in one row and knitting the next row, I decreased every flipping row.   So I ended up with a sock that was half the size that it was supposed to be. 

This cute little sock that was going to keep Youngest's feet toasty warm is now a Christmas tree ornament and I did a full face-palm.  Knitting fail. :p

A Little Humor Goes a Long Way

Ever find yourself giggling at the wording of some of the church bulletins in your parish?   Well, if that sounds like you then you definately aren't alone.   Here are some of the best church bulletin bloopers from around the web, enjoy:


"Ladies, don’t forget the rummage sale. It’s a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Bring your husbands.."


"Don’t let worry kill you off – let the Church help."

"Next Thursday there will be tryouts for the choir. They need all the help they can get."


"A bean supper will be held on Tuesday evening in the church hall. Music will follow."


"Please place your donation in the envelope along with the deceased person you want remembered."

"The ladies of the Church have cast off clothing of every kind. They may be seen in the basement on Friday afternoon."

"Weight Watchers will meet at 7 PM at the First Presbyterian Church. Please use large double door at the side entrance."


"The Associate Minister unveiled the church’s new campaign slogan last Sunday: ‘I Upped My Pledge – Up Yours’."

"It's Drug Awareness Week: Get involved in drugs before your children do."

"The Women's League reported that Mrs. Springston, a grandmother of five, made a hole in one last week. Good Shooting! "

"This Friday is our annual church hayride. Bring a pack of hot dogs and guns. We'll have a good time. "

A little political humor...

If you are easily offended then I apologize in advance.   But if you are one of those easily offended folks, may I suggest lightening up a little bit, life is to short to take every little thing seriously.  

Now I will commence with the funny....

DISCOVERY - THE DENSEST ELEMENT




Discovery Announcement ~ The densest element in the known Universe has been found! Pelosium:A major research institution has just announced the discovery of the densest element yet known to science. The new element has been named Pelosium. Pelosium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons, and 224 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 311. These particles are held together by dark forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. The symbol of Pelosium is PU.



Pelosium’s mass actually increases over time, as morons randomly interact with various elements in the atmosphere and become assistant deputy neutrons within the Pelosium molecule, leading to the formation of isodopes.



This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as Critical Morass.



When catalyzed with money, Pelosium activates CNNadnausium. That is an element that radiates orders of magnitude, albeit as incoherent noise. It has half as many peons, but twice as many morons as Pelosium.

Funny Youtube Video

A docu-drama detailing why you should never turn your back on a ram.  Please turn your cell phones off, sit back, and enjoy the movie.  Popcorn and refreshments are available in the kitchen.  Thank You.
