pizzas are baked... um musicians are fried... if not steamed
pizzas melt Musicians explode
Musicians sing about pizzas at Christmastide: O give us a figgy pizza, o give us a figgy pizza o give us a figgy pizza, or we'll st-ay right here And we won't go until we get some, we won't go...
There was an FSSP parish where the ushers failed to show up one Sunday morning. The pastor grabs a man named Dominic and says, I need you to take up the collection. Can you do that? Man says, Sure, just tell me when to do it. So the mass begins and as soon as the pastor finishes the collect he sees Dominic taking the collection. Dominic goes on to take more collections all through the mass, to the pastor's increasing bafflement. After the mass, the pastor asks Dominic what he thought he was doing. Dominic replies, I did exactly as you said. I took the collection every time you said, "Dominic, go frisk 'em".
Ben, I stifle a giggle every time our pastor says we "are going to lift the offering." It sounds like there is going to be either a holdup, or some major thievery. ;-)
