Funnies from the past.

We've talked a long time about how we need to write some the the funny stuff from our early years because we will forget. These are a few.

1. When Rich lived down by Emory, we would hang out almost every weekend ALL weekend. We took to surfing channels to find the most bizarre thing on for any given hour. One lazy Sunday, we happened upon a televised religious service, this does not fall into the bizarre catagory but we stopped awestruck by THE HAT.

This woman in the congregation was wearing the largest, pontiff style, view blocking hat we'd every seen. At this point Rich proclaims it a "satelite to God"....and I break down laughing hysterically, in tears, side splitting, can't catch my breath.

Don't get me wrong, Rich and I are religious believers but the size of the hat was just comical.

2. I am not graceful, not in the least and neither is Rich. Early on in our relationship Rich coined the phase "retarded gazelle" to describe any less than graceful act. The vision of gazelle's leaping in unison through tall reads of grass, followed by one lonely gazelle stumbling, tripping, and running into rocks.....

Once again, this dissolved me to tears of laughter the first time Rich said it. (He's the funny one I guess)
