Hey, you all wanna keep it down in here. I was tryin to catch some zzzzzzzz's and you all scared the bejesus outa me with all your hollerin in here!
Shouldn't that be "B. Jesus"? As in "B. Jesus H. Christ?" And if so, what in tarnation does the B stand for? Or maybe Jesus is just his nickname, shortened from Bejesus. Leapin' Lizards, that guy's name is getting longer and longer!
Yo. I'm fixin' on going horizontal, so can you put a clamp on it? Pleaze?
Just thought about a friend who overheard her young son reciting the Lord's Prayer:
"Our Father who art in heaven, how do you know my name?"
Hmmm, b as in beelzebub? Why, shoot!
Beelzebub Jesus Harvey Christ? Gadzooks!
Everyone knows that God's first name is Howard. Remember the Lord's Prayer? "Our father Howard in heaven..."
(On a serious note, kickycan, Christ means 'the annointed one.' It's not a family name but a honorific bestowed after the unpleasantness on Mt. Golgotha. It is roughly equivalent to 'Messiah.' which, in ancient Hebrew, also means 'the anointed one.' Sorry for the unpardonable digression into seriousness.)
Christ on a pogo-stick, Mr. Wizard, what's goin' on here?

Who the heck knows. I just say it cause I like sayin it. you got any problems with that?
Nope. It's all blue potatoes to me. Okay, I admit it, I made that one up.
Holy jumpin jehosebags!!! Is that Setanta I see there?
What in the mashin meatballs are you talkin about Kicky?
I can't believe MA is trying to feed us that line of crapola. The "Lord's Prayer" clearly reads: Our Father, who art in heaven, Holloway be thy name . . . . Ergo, ipso fatso, sozyerollady--the H. in Jesus H. Christ stands for Holloway.
I knew a Canadian gal years ago who used to exclaim "Jesus Christ on a biscuit tin."
Have a friend/old boss who now writes thrillers. Can hear him in more than one character, since as they get stressed, the protagonists, male, female, whatever, all say, jesus... as an exclamation.
Good grief, this is friggin' fun.
Geewillakers... So I guess he really was Irish, Beezlebub Jesus (Mary and Joseph) Howard Murphy Halloway.
Did I get it right or am I missin' a few?
Well, did you write JMJ on the top of all your school papers, or not?
Doggone it all. I'm so hungry I could eat a dead horse, though I wouldn't flog it of course, or look it in the mouth (or anywhere else, really) if it was a gift. Course, should this horse start to walk like a duck, look like a duck & quack like a duck, it must be a duck, unless it's something else. And you might think that by trying to drag this horse to water to make it drink I've gone up a creek without a paddle, but at least that's better than being up a creek without a canoe, so I'll try to look on the bright side, & read between the lines coz that's where people write the words.
