A Russian couple was walking down the street in St. Petersburg the other night, when the man felt a drop hit his nose. "I think it's raining, " he said to his wife.
"No, that felt more like snow to me, " she replied. "No, I'm sure it was just rain, he said." Well, as these things go, they were about to have a major argument about whether it was raining or snowing. Just then they saw a minor communist party official walking toward them. "Let's not fight about it, " the man said, "let's ask Comrade Rudolph whether it's officially raining or snowing."
As the official approached, the man said, "Tell us, Comrade Rudolph, is it officially raining or snowing? "
"It's raining, of course, " he answered and walked on. But the woman insisted: "I know that felt like snow! " To which the man quietly replied: "Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear! "
I think Parson Wayne will like that one lol.
Take care and God bless. Merry Christmas to all. Hugs.
Wow, Aussie!! That's a beaut! Reminds me of the story of the Genie in a bottle and a guy named Benny that rubbed the bottle and the Genie appeared. Same old story of the wishes for a lot of money, a beautiful wife, and great health -- the only string being that Benny could never shave again. If he did, he'd have to take the Genie's place. Years go by and Benny's wife nags him constantly to shave because his whiskers chafe her skin. He finally does, poof! The Genie appears with the bottle and Benny -- well, the moral of the story? A Benny shaved is a Benny urned. Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!!!

Loved the story.Kids Fractured Carols:
No one can fracture a Christmas carol better than a kid. Sing along with these new takes on old favorites:
* Deck the Halls with Buddy Holly
* We three kings of porridge and tar
* On the first day of Christmas my tulip gave to me
* Later on we'll perspire, as we dream by the fire.
* He's makin' a list, chicken and rice.
* Noel, noel, noel, noel; Barney's the king of Israel.
* With the jelly toast proclaim
* Olive, the other reindeer.
* Frosty the Snowman is a ferret elf, I say
* Sleep in heavenly peas
* In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is sparse and brown
* You'll go down in listerine
* Oh, what fun it is to ride with one horse, soap and hay
* Come, froggy faithful
* You'll tell Carol, "Be a skunk, I require"
* Good tidings we bring to you and your kid

Children really do give one a different take on words and phrases we take for granted. Great group of kidstuff, ParsonWayne! Thanks for the chuckles.
When I was involved in the music at church trying to fit everything in was stressful. We had to open gifts Christmas Eve because Christmas morning was all tied up.
Wishing you a stress-free celebration.
