Has a preacher ever actually won the Darwin Awards while exercising his pastoral duties before?

Dear Low Twentysomething Who Works In The Microbiology Lab Down The Hall:

Wah! This is me. By accident, but ALL THE TIME. And I don't wear tiny tiny underwear, I tend towards big ol' boxers, but still. I just have no hips to speak of, and even when I wear a tight belt, there tends to be slippage throughout the day. Long story short, pretty much everyone I know is more acquainted with my crack than either they or I would be happy with.

Has a preacher ever actually won the Darwin Awards while exercising his pastoral duties before?

Good question. How do they choose those anyway? Do people nominate candidates or do the originators just scan the newspapers for stupid people tricks?

OK, so guess who saw me out on the balcony and started wailing?

Yup, Miss Tortiepants.

So of course, I had to go down and give her a lap and lots of petting.

@@-> self.

She's now on the stoop, staring up at my balcony. Dude, bring your kid, I'll kidnap you both and subject you to all sorts of feline torture take you to a vet in a car and get you all fixed up and find homes.

Silence means security silence means approval

OK, I'm heading home to take Annabel out for tricks and treats.

Sadly, my wife is leaving my people-hating self alone AGAIN to hand out candy. I don't want to deal with people knocking at the door asking for sugar.

Did I mention that I hate Halloween? Or is that verboten here?

Anyway, there will be pictures of Annabel the Cat up in a couple of hours.

We ran through 4 bags of candy by 7:30 and shut up shop.

Our local park read a scary book about green pants by Dr. Seuss. Here are some assembled cuties: [link] and our cutie: [link]

Then we trick or treated on our block only. Evie enjoyed the fruit of her labors: [link] and [link]

Oh, so cute - and I love the look of rapt attention on her face listening to the story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh my goodness the little cutie-pies! Little bunny!
