16 Ways to Maintain a Healthy Level of Insanity

(From an insane parishioner)

1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and Point A Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down.
2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don't Disguise Your Voice.
3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, Ask If They Want Fries with That.
4. Put Your Garbage Can On Your Desk And Label It "IN."
5. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks. Once Everyone Has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch To Espresso.
6. In The Memo Field Of All Your Checks, Write "For Sexual Favors"
7. Finish all Your Sentences With "In Accordance With The Prophecy."
8. dont use any punctuation
9 . As Often As Possible, Skip Rather Than Walk.
10. Specify That Your Drive-through Order Is "To Go."
11. Sing Along At The Opera.
12. Go To A Poetry Recital And Ask Why The Poems Don't Rhyme?
13. Put Mosquito Netting Around Your Work Area And Play Tropical Sounds All Day.
14. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream "I Won! I Won!"
15. When Leaving The Zoo, Start Running Towards The Parking Lot, Yelling "Run For Your Lives, They're Loose!!!"
16. Tell Your Children Over Dinner. "Due To The Economy, We Are Going To Have To Let One Of You Go. "

LOL! Father, you have been really funny the last couple of days. Did you decide to laugh in the face of your intense Holy Week schedule?

Ellen said...

Apparently the serious nature of Lent has gotten to you and you have cracked up.

Love the list. There are several that I may try.

Thanks for keeping us laughing.

Thank you so much! I REALLY needed that laugh! You have NO IDEA.

I've seen this before, but for some reason, I'm actually considering carrying out a few of them....In accordance with the prophecy, of course.


I wonder if anyone will think it strange if I bring my hair dryer to work? That action would be especially funny in our company vehicle.

So much fun I could have with these. Would be a hoot to pull off in the social psychology lab I work for at school ... if the social psychologists can't wonder at this, we're all twisted!

Father,
If I write, "for sexual favors" on my donation checks to the church--will I burn in Hell?
