7. LOL... Obscenities Are Only In The Mind Of The Beholder...
clearly it wasn't in the mind of the person who put up those letters.

-- Allen

P.S. So I'm left wondering, how is it that so many fundamentalists manage to define what passes for being obscene.

18. because they think everything except the Bible is...
If it ain't in the Bible, it will warp you mind and turn you in to a depraved sex fiend.

8. Stop-n-Come
That was the name of convenience store in Houston. English was the second language for the owners; some colloquial definitions aren't found in the textbooks.

I think somebody clued them in--they changed the name.

17. Maybe the pastor's wife thought it up
A repressed wife of a Baptist pastor might be sending a subliminal message to the whole world but it seems he still doesnt have a clue..=)

24. Now that you mention it there were a few cars in the ditch
that day...perhaps it wasnt just the Lake Effect snow that caused those minor accidents.
