Praying For Oral

When I get bored, instead of doing something productive like clean...or spend time with the kids animals...or work on magazine submissions/queries, I like to waste time by aimlessly searching the internet. Last night's search was Ways-To-Make-Fun-Of-Oklahoma.  Not that it's a daunting task.

So I stumbled upon a site about our famed, insane evangelist, Oral Roberts.  Now, I may be a mature 30-year-old woman *giggle* and an upstanding member of society *snort*, but in situations like these, my mentality goes straight to 12-year-old boy.  Here was my thought process while reading the article:

Ooooh, something to poke fun of Oklahoma.

Heh. They said Oral.

Blah blah blah...healing the sick....yadda yadda yadda.

His son's name is Richard, I never knew that.

Heh. Richard's nickname would be Dick.

Dick Roberts. Heh.  I'm funny.

Wah wah wah....had to close the hospital....blab blab blab.

Heh. Roberts nickname would be Bob.

Dick Bob. Heh. Heh. Heh. 

A man named Oral has a son named Dick Bob.  Oooh, the irony.

Heh heh heh heh.

So, being the upstanding citizen *bwaahahaha* and genteel soul I am *snortdroolguffaw*, I did the next logical thing.  I kept that information to myself because that's just silly blogged about it for you fine folks. You're very welcome.

Ya know, that's just deceptive advertising. "Praying for Oral"... mean and uncalled for. Okay, maybe there were some "Dick" jokes. But still...

Thank God you didn't stumble upon the historical page for the state's 37th governor, "Drippy" Anal Johnson.

I am so not going to stand next to you...ever. It will be a nice sunny day and you'll still get struck by lightening. Seriously, that is hilarious! I never thought of it. Damn.

Definitely got the 12 yr old mentality down pat. But my fiancee is 28 and he would TOTALLY see it the same way.

It's what BusyMom calls her "inner 13-year-old boy." I think you have to let him out for a good airing every once in a while...or else. And really--if you don't share, then what's the point?

TC - what an unfortunate name! I'd certainly have changed my name as soon as I was able to. That's just wrong. Kevin - I thought you menfolk might get all excited for nothing. Hey, that's what I'm here for. To make an ass of myself (see Lotto post below) and to tease the boys. ;) Pants - Don't think I won't search that one out! Heh. Drippy. Is he any relation to the car racer Dick Trickle? (heh heh heh heh heh heh) Chili - Awwwww, come on! Where's the fun in that?? Come here...stand riiiiiiiight here with me. Don't be afraid. Muuhahaha! Celise - Haha! I bet you have a GREAT time with him, huh? I tend to get eyes rolled at me a lot. *sigh* Oh well. Muse - LOL Hey, whatever brings the readers in, right? Of course, now I imagine my google searche results will go through the roof. Belinda - At least I'm not the only one who has one. Mine came from growing up with two much older brothers. I didn't have the chance to turn out normal. Heh.

Freud would have a field day with that family.

*snickering* Oh hell... Heeheeheeheehee *snort* I have to show this one to the Hubby. Men love potty humor. Apparently, women do too!

I knew I guy named Harry Cox. Why his parents would have named him that........ and why he didnt insist on being called Harold, I'll never know. But I would kill my parents if they did that to me.

It'd be funny if Oral met Dick. "Oral, Dick" "Dick, Oral" You know that has happened at some point and someone around them shot their drink through their nose trying not to laugh.

I am laughing so hard right now and only partly because you sound exactly like Nate. Wait...Nate? Is that you?

Jennifer - I KNOW! You would think that parents would consider something like this. Yikes. Unless, of course, 'oral' wasn't invented back then. Hehe! Chanakin - Hhaha! Indeed! I'd like to see the notes on that visit. MrsChicky - Growing up with two brothers doesn't help matters, believe me. I'm still suffering from it. (Though I adore my brothers!) Michelle - Oh no!! HAHAHAH! Harry Cox...that's awsome! I bet the father named it. Heh. We knew a guy named Red Dick - he was horrified of telling people his name. He'll never get over that one. hahahah! Deb - That would be hilarious! If I were a stander-by, I would NOT be able to hold my tongue on that one. Mom101 - Honey, just go back to your blog. We'll talk later. ;)
