I love this running gag that takes place on the Late Late Show w/James Cordon. It's the send-up "title music" Steve Scalfati plays when Cordon starts his news segment. The jingle is never the same, and it always grows over time like a monster in a b-grade 50's sci-fi movie. Not only is the guy clever and funny, he's a consummate musician. Writing music is hard. Writing purposely funny music is even harder. Watch what this guy can do.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
A Pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won. The Pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in a race again... and it won, again. The local paper read: PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT.
The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the Pastor not to enter the donkey in another race. The next day the local paper headline read: BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS.
This was too much for the Bishop so he ordered the Pastor to get rid of the donkey. The Pastor decided to give it to a Nun in a nearby convent. The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following headline the next day: NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The Bishop fainted.
He informed the Nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey, so she sold it to a farm for $10. The next day the paper read: NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10
This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the Nun to buy back the donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run wild. The next day the headlines read: NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.
The Bishop was buried the next day.
The moral of the story is . . . being concerned about public opinion can bring you much grief and misery and even shorten your life. So be yourself, and enjoy life. Stop worrying about everyone else's ass and just cover your own !!! You'll be a lot happier and live longer!
Masterfully rendered! Tip of the chapeau, Clemdawg! I giggled more than once, and I most sadly confess that this was the high point of this day for me. Thanks for the pick me up. Now I hope to be able to remember it to tell it to a few pastors I know. LOLetc.!
