Emma didn’t get round to buying me some for our anniversary so I bought some myself! 

“I haven’t even opened them Your Honour.”

 

I saw that yesterday and I thought of you..

Is saying you have nothing to contribute to the off-topic thread actually a contribution?  

 

Also. Richard.  You're a scream.  Thanks for the chuckles.

Since the 4 Gospels are named after the writers and the letters from Peter, John and Jude are named after them, then why aren't the 14 letters from Paul named 1 Paul, 2 Paul, 3 Paul...?

Perhaps because Paul's writings are letters to locations and congregations, and the other books by other apostles were like other forms of writing? (Trying to think if the other Gospel writings also had letters to people and locations in them.)

Without looking - in all but one of Paul’s inspired writings he introduces himself at the beginning. Which one?

I asked a brother this question and he knew straight away. He then asked me if I could verbally summarise each chapter of the Bible without looking. He gave me the impression that he could!

My favorite part of my job is when I get to blow up balloons 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈

I was just finishing a drink and enjoying the last drop when my cat decided to lick the moisture off the bottom of the glass. There is nothing like watching a cat tongue through the bottom of a glass..

It's too late in the day to be laughing this hard, even Lew got a belly laugh from this. (I think maybe I have too vivid of an imagination)

I generally keep a table cloth on and previously had a glass table. If I picked up the cloth and looked down at my small dog,  underneath, she would look up with a shocked expression.👀 Change tables. It couldn't be looking at me that left her traumatized. 😮
