"Sweating to the Gospel"
I just saw a commercial for an exercise video, "Sweating to the Gospel".

Exercising to Gospel music.

Somehow, that just isn't right.

My Grandma must be rolling over in her grave.

I was all for Gospel music in Hip Hop form, but here -- again, it just isn't right.

13. better than freezing
Edited on Sat Jan-29-05 05:46 PM by CatWoman
when I was baptized, I was living in Indianapolis.

The baptismal tub was full of ice, it was so cold.

They had to chip the ice so that I could get in. All I had on was a white robe.

My sister Wendy says, "Maybe that's why it didn't take".

LOL.
