funny security guard at Brownsville revival

This post will bring back humorous memories for those who attended the Brownsville revival in Pensacola, Florida.  There was a certain security guard who kept people in line when the doors were opened.   (If you never went during its peak of popularity, people would wait outside the church ALL DAY to get into the service.  Seriously, people would be waiting in line at 7:00 AM, and the doors opened at 6:00 PM.)  This particular guard had a megaphone, and he always said the same things.  The way he said it was funny, and it was in Ebonics, which made it even better.  Here’s a sample:

“Single file line!
SINGLE FILE LINE, FOLKS!
Watch yo’ step!
No drank, cooluh, backpack, large bag, or umbuhrella will be allow in de santuareh!
Watch yo’ step!
Single file line, folks!
Watch yo’ STEP!
Hold yo’ seat!
Do not move from yo’ seat until you are told!
You may lose yo’ seat!
Watch yo’ step!”

I miss those times… not only the services, but the incredible fellowship we had on those trips.  Road trips can be a great time (if you have the right people — some folks let they attitude get musty when sittin’ in a car all day).

BTW, when our church has a revival with folks waiting outside before the doors open, I’m gonna make sure somebody with a similar style of speaking has a megaphone to continue the tradition.

caption contest, man peeing into gas tank

This week’s caption contest features an unusual picture.  Some may consider it crude, even.  Well, the picture itself doesn’t show anything crude or vulgar, but the concept is not so noble.  So you’ve been forewarned, and if you proceed with viewing this post and you get offended, it’s your own fault!   (Really, you shouldn’t get offended.  It’s nothing personal — this has nothing to do with you — it’s just a concept of something funny, and it’s funny because it’s not really happening.)

Disclaimer aside, let’s continue.   This photo features a man peeing into a car’s gas tank.   At least, it appears that way.   You can write the captions however you want, taking whatever angle you want.   Just remember to not use any vulgar language — keep it clean.

Here is another post of funny pictures.  Do I need to say more?

caption contest, two people with phones on head

It’s just another manic Monday… which I will make better with a new caption contest!  This week’s photo goes way back — back into time — to an era when the world was still in black and white, and phone technology was still new.  I have absolutely no actual context for this picture, so I’m depending on you to figure out what could possibly be going on here.
