A Small Bit of Easter Hilarity
We spent Easter weekend down at Katy's folks. Yesterday morning we got up and went to church, as is popular on Easter Sunday.
We got there a little late and were looking for a place to sit when the opening hymn started up.
I don't know what the hymn was - I didn't save the bulletin - but it was set to the tune of the sea shanty What Do You Do With A Drunken Sailor. Really! My brother-in-law also recognized it - we exchanged knowing glances and tried to keep from laughing.
I am still humming it today.

Scary.. Not that the music was the same, but that you recognized this fact... ;-)

Surely someone in the group came home with a bulletin. It would really be interesting to know what it said. Then, I too, can regale my colleagues.
Was the text in the bulletin? Get me the
church address and I will ask about this remarkable music.

"Sea Shanties" That's the kind of church I like. Did the Choir Master wear an eye-patch? What was the name of his other leg?

Was lunch after church at the Krusty Krab?
