Okay. This came from our pulpit today during sacrament meeting:
The funniest thing about it was that everyone was waiting for an explanation after it was said and there was none. Just an awkward pause while the speaker waited for the laughter that she didn't receive.
I am left to ponder: How IS not paying your tithing like selling your house for a corn dog?
"Not paying tithing is like selling your house for a corn dog."

Oh Tiff, it sounds like you were attending my ward! I'm not sure why but my ward is made up of the most random people and I kid you not every lesson, testimony or comment in passing makes us stop and think, "What in the world???"
One father even blessed his daughter during her baby blessing with a "love of fine cheeses." I kid you not, sometimes I wonder what religion I am when I'm there! It's pretty hilarious! Luckily the church is still true!
i think she means to say that corn dog minus the corn = hot dog. you take away the hot part and you are left with just a dog. then if you take into account that selling your house is also a hard thing and you add the dog to it... i think it's obvious now to everyone EXACTLY what she was trying to say here. i am so glad i was here to set everyone straight!
church is good
church is love
church treats are good
i love church treats!
24 hours later, I'm still pondering this one.
You have been TAGGED!!! Please see my blog for more info! www.everylittlething.typepad.com
I love corn dogs, so maybe I would!
that is pretty funny! Your blog is adorable. I wish that I had one once of your creativity. Can you send some of that over here to the west coast? :)
I had a corn dog once. I've never owned a house, but I believe her meaning is CLEAR:it's like when Adam Sandler let that cute old lady pay him for music lessons with AMAZING meat balls, it was all great until he needed money! Even though that street vendor is convincing and the corn dog smells delicious, you know it will only taste good cause you're hungry, but giving 10% now will get you a fine dinner at a romantic place in little Italy! Corn dogs are cheap and immediately gratifying...we hold out for something better :)
Amberli - My husband couldn't believe what you said about that blessing - that is NUTS.
g-cubed - you have a way of making things seem so simple. I thank you.
P.S - church treats are fabulous.
Annie - it's in the mail.
Shauna and Linda - I love corn dogs too! Not as much as my brothers though. They can eat a half dozen in a sitting. Good connection Linda, in my sixth grade class we called that a text to text connection! Way to go!
I've been laughing about this ever since I saw it on Sunday.
