Carnival of Crazy #22

carnivalposter.jpg

 

Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends, we’re so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside! With my apologies to ELP, its time for the 22nd Carnival of Crazy, chock full of links to strange things going on all over, submitted by folks from all over. I volunteered for this hosting gig, because 1. I need the publicity for my new URL (which BTW is http://misscellania.squarespace.com in case you want to link me) and b. putting this together is a lot like what I do every day here, so its no trouble. Let me know which of these crazy links you like best!

THE RIVER

A southern Baptist minister was completing a temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said, “If I had all the beer in the world, I’d take it and pour it into the river.”

With even greater emphasis he said, “And if I had all the wine in the world, I’d take it and pour it into the river.”

And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he said, “And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I’d take it and pour it into the river.”

Sermon complete, he sat down.

The song leader stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, nearly laughing, “For our closing song, let us sing Hymn #365, “Shall We Gather at the River.”

Thought for today: If electricity comes from electrons... does that mean that morality comes from morons?

Great laughs today! You probably can guess which one I found the most interesting, my first inclination was to giggle (and I did) but on the serious side, it is a good thing for those who don't have them. Everyone may want one, but I'll settle for one attached to a man LOL

Have a good day!

Jukes, I don't have free time, I do this INSTEAD of housework!

Fantod, good to see you here! I adore your writings!

Karen, I could guess. Have a great day yourself!

I salute you, Miss Cellania. At least when you publish posts about crazy things, people can laugh. That's wonderful. There is so much craziness out there in the world that is not at all funny.

HA! Not me ... I think you're doing an absolutely mahvelous job, m'dear!

Miss C, your posts never cease to amaze me. I didn't get to all of the links but the ones I did follow cracked me up, even the poor soul whose wife, well, you know. I'm not sure why that cracked me up. Okay, I am but would rather not talk about it. Okay, that's way too much information. Another great post, Miss C. Let's just leave it at that. ;)

Holy smokes, the stuff in your Sex department is wild. There seems to be an awful lot of teacher/student boinking going on these days. And Boob Tag? The cops are making a federal issue out of it... C'mon already. Enjoy your posts as always. :)

Boob Tag. You're it!

That was so much fun! Thanks! Still laughing here. Some of the links I have already seen so I didn't click on those. I am having my trampoline jumping son watch that ouch one later..

Have a wonderful evening!

Adding you to my links. I hope this is okay.

I think I'll pass, Miss C., you're a hard act to follow.
...Good post, as usual.

mwgrl5, I've been doing that on purpose for months, and you are the first to point it out! Thanks for coming by.

The rest of you, thank you so much for your kind comments.
