Default Did I say that out loud?

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during
the Summer Olympics that they would like to take back and, except for Paul
Hamm, they get paid the "big bucks:"

1. Weightlifting commentator: "This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her
snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing."

2. Dressage commentator: "This is really a lovely horse and I speak from
personal experience since I once mounted her mother."

3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: "I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and
father."

4. Boxing Analyst: "Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in
boxing, but none of them really that serious."

5. Softball announcer: "If history repeats itself, I should think we can
expect the same thing again."

6. Basketball analyst: "He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like
it. In fact you can see it all over their faces."

7. At the rowing medal ceremony: "Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC
president is hugging the cox of the British crew."

8. Soccer commentator: "Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got
eleven Dicks on the field."

9. Tennis commentator: "One of the reasons Andy (Roddick) is playing so well
is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses
them, Oh my God, what have I just said?"

Post Been there done that!

After 32 years of pastoring. I've made more than my share of slips while preaching.
I always know when it happens, the teenagers and my wife always start to giggle.
You just have to learn to laugh at yourself and go on.

Default Keith...

Don't knock it. I'll give odds that those Sermons where you slipped-up, are The Sermons best remembered by most all of your parishoners,...ba-dum-bum. Besides being good show-biz, such even keeps those accustomed to nodding-off (like myself) alert and wondering just what-the-hell is "He" going to come out with next.

Guess that not being near as religious a person as My Wife, I need all the foul-ups possible to keep my attention in Church.
Sorry.

Neil

A few years ago, my Rev war regiment was at Fort Ticonderoga in NY for a garrison weekend. Five times a day we had to parade around and give firing demonstrations, besides talking to tourists in the encampment. After 3 days of saying the same thing over and over, our commentator, while talking about the way a musket fires (how the powder in the pan is ignited by the flint striking the frizzen and, in turn, ignites the powder in the barrel though the touchhole) said to the hundred or so people there, "...and that's where we get the expression 'Keep your touchole dry'!" There was a general murmur throughout the crowd, and us, and I turned to the guy next to me and said, "Did he just say what I think he said?!" To this day, he denies saying it, but he sure did!

Heard a good one today! I was just in a local supermarket when a guy said over the PA, "Kathy, if you've got a few minutes, can I have you in the meat room?" Man! Talk about a bold proposal!
