"The Coffee Shop"......(#2)

Now, now! Ladies!! Look yonder! Sherrie won't admit it but this here Coffee Shop is really a converted beauty salon--and Laurenda was their biggest customer! There are still some of those old Woman's Day mags hangin' round--Laurenda, why don't you get one of those "BeeHive" do's--or one of those fruzzy little "Poodle" cuts----BAAAAAAAA!!! You asked for that one!!!

I can remember living with my aunt for a summer--and every Friday she'd have a group of "hens" over and they would all "do" each others hair! I'd be outside mowin' the grass and from time to time would go in for a glass of water--and I'd hear um in there and after they'd leave I'd ask my aunt "What 'chaw talkin' about??" and the answer was always something like "Our Sunday School lesson comin up!!"

Your Southern Baptist preachin', woman's hair doin' buddy!!!!!

I keep telling you dude...I'm not an old lady. I'm not ready for the blue hair do quite yet...give me another 50 years okay? Biggest customer?...do I look high maintenance to you?

Hey, listen...would you all pray for me...2 new members have been busting my chops, and I'm having a hard time not getting upset about it. You know me...I can give as good as I get...but when it's more than one at a time, it's harder to deal with with out it taking it's toll on my sweet spirit.

I'm going to bed...my eyes are blurry. See you folks tomorrow, sleep well, and God bless.

You surely would not be suggesting I am a whiskey drinker are you??

yours, Jon.

 

Sherrie, look up the Selkirk Grace.

yours, Jon.

 

BTW they would be Rabbie Burns

yours, Jon.

 

Just looked at the link, the answers in there

yours, Jon.

 

Are you suggesting the Scots are cattle needing the fodder

yours, Jon.

 

Laurenda,
What they bustin' ya about?? "Clip their wings!" "Nip it in the bud!" Tell um ta don't start nothin' they can't finish!--I posted on a Pastoral Ministry thing--all about pastoral authority--some newbies come in wantin' to "take over!" Really gave me a bad time about my grammer and English and stuff--boy, that's my pet peeve--people who jump on me out about my English!! Mercy, give um a little time--they'll settle down!

Now, about that "do!" My wife is goin' to the female barber this week--she's your age, girl!! and she wants to borrow that Woman's Day sittin' there at your table???!!!

Your Southern Baptist preachin', English speakin' buddy,
Blackbird

 

Good Morning, All.

Betty agrees with Laurenda, but she doesn't have time to post this morning. Too busy with her hair

As for arguing with newbies, i've been
there, i've done that, i've got a t-shirt
that used to say: "I've arugued with newbies
and all i got is this lousy T-shirt".
All that is left of the t-shirt is the
sleves

As for "girl", i call my 91-year-old
Mother-in-law "girl". She loves it.
So you children under 60 don't take no
more of that "over the hill" stuff,
just enjoy your youth!

May God's blessing flow into the Coffee Shop
crowd free and thick as the coffee which
also flows.
/ed studies Asa (I Kings 15) and slurps coffee/

 

I bettcha don't hear this song very
much any more:

Oh day of rest
For thee i sigh
When shall my moment come
When I shall lay my armor by
And dwell in peace with Him.

We'll work till Jesus comes
We'll work till Jesus comes
We'll work till Jesus comes
Then we'll be gathered home!

Is Sunday (the Lord's Day) supposed
to be a day of rest
or a day of activities?

Sunday School (teach)
Morning Worship (sing & listen)
Eat lunch with daughter?
Knappe
Evening worship (take organist)

and that is 5½-hours there.
And i'm just a layperson

I can do it!
\o/ Praise The Lord! \o/

 

Thank you for saving my reputation.

There is a story about the author of Sherloch Holmes (was it Sir Arthur Conan Coyle?)
Apparently he liked practical jokes and sent a telegram to 12 friends who had fine standing reputations. The telegram read "Flee away, your secret has been found out!)

24hours later all 12 men had left the country.

yours, Jon.

How come this keeps coming out double. The irn Bru is non alcoholic..........besides the coffee shop has not served me any yet.

yours, Jon.

 

Thats great, but be careful Blackbird does not wander what language it is

yours, Jon.

 

Good afternoon to all,,,,,,,and evening to Jon....

We were talking about the variable weather in Canada yesterday. Well, Alberta was greeted yesterday with 50 cms of snow and are expecting more to-day...Eastern Ontario is sunny and warm,,approaching 22celsius. The difference in 3000 miles.

Blackbird...You say someone dared to correct your use of English? Shame on them....shame, I say!

And Celts never did listen to the English.

I read this in a church bulletin:

In 1654, one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England.
In 1845, one vote broght Texas into the Union.
In 1868, one vote saved Andrew Johnson from impeachment as president.
In 1876, one vote gave Rutherford B. Hayes the presidency of the United States.
In 1960, Richard Nixon lost to J.F. Kennedy. The latter won it by less than one vote per precinct.

Your presence at church does matter.

Cheers,

Jim
