Tonight someone I haven’t seen in 13 or 14 years IMed me while I was online hoping to connect with a tech support guy. We chatted for a while, learned more about a certain part of Washington than I knew previously, and then I checked out a recommended link to a site that came up during the conversation. I browsed brieflly, and this one page was funny, I thought.
Check it out at Wittenburg Door.com:
MISPLACED TAPE CAUSES MEGACHURCH SCANDAL
The ensuing near-schism arose, however, not because of the content of the tape, but because an unauthorized person had somehow gained access to the video room. This information led to an emergency congregational meeting immediately afterwards where another level of electronic protocol was added to security.“The heart and soul of this church is the technological ministry,” said Pastor Josiah Grubb. “We are too big a body for any of us to personally know each other, and besides, how can we meet the needs of all our religion consumers without our techie stuff?”
You have to read the rest of it, to get the whole joke. Pretty funny stuff.
Probably closer to 15 years. (Yoikes! Are we really that old?)
Actually, it wasn’t completely random that I IMed you, as I’d been looking to see what else the Frogs had put out after Flail! (okay, that part was random), found Ookla the Mok, and your site linked via them, and put your IM into my Trillian . . . and then poof–there you were one night.
(The web–it’s like magic!)
