Not only did I laugh like a loon when I saw [this](http://bitsandpieces1.blogspot.com/2006/11/ymca.html) picture this morning (which you are free to caption, although I don’t really think it needs one), I then sent it on to every single person I know…including my sister in law (teaches sunday school) and mother in law (father in law sings in the church choir), and boss (sits on the board for the local Episcopalian church). I keep getting the mental image of very serious people in tasteful yet modest suits showing up at my door tomorrow morning to save me, and I can’t stop giggling…

I was already going to hell, but I think laughing that hard at that bumps me up to at least business class. Or at least a handbasket with a nice lining.

Luckily, I already have a first class ticket for the train to hell, because I thought that was very funny.

That’s one of those things that makes me think, “How come _I_ never thought of that first???”

I’ll see y’all down there.

😕

Context of an implied original? A music video or a popular dance craze or something? Or is there something intrinsically funny about “YMCA” in conjunction with Jesus of Naz that I’m too dense to get?

Dangit, my sister regularly assures me and everyone else she knows that I’m going to hell, why can’t I get a good seat? ☹

I saw that the other day, and last night when they played “YMCA” at the hockey game I just cracked up.

I call a window seat!

Thus providing incontrovertible evidence that Jesus thinks being gay is just FABULOUS, thank you very much.
