Ms. Terri asked her Sunday School class to draw pictures of their favorite Bible stories.

She was puzzled by Kyle’s picture, which showed four people on an airplane, so she asked him which story it was meant to represent.

“The Flight to Egypt ,” was his reply.

Pointing at each figure, Ms. Terri said, “That must be Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus. But who’s the fourth person?”

“Oh, that’s Pontius - the pilot!”

Many years ago, when I drove trucks for a living, I used to see a large sign on the side of the road just outside a town.

' **DANGER OLD PEOPLE**"

I liked to imagine the wrinklies lurking in the bushes, ready to hobble out and beat up unsuspecting passers by with their walking frames.

That’s better than around here, we get “Slow Children Playing” signs.

I’ve literally been looking for this one for ages. And what can I say. I found it:

THE TRUTH ABOUT SUPERSTITIONS ACCORDING TO GROUCHO MARX:

~When a person’s nose itches, it’s a sign it should be scratched.

~A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere.

~Thirteen at a table is unlucky when the hostess has only 12 chops.

~Singing before breakfast is a forewarning of a fight with a neighbor‒if the neighbor is trying to sleep late.

~Throwing salt over the shoulder is likely to give the impression that the man who throws the salt has dandruff.

~Finding a four-leaf clover is a sign that you have been down on your hands and knees.

~To get out of bed on the wrong side probably means that you have had too much the night before.

~To carry a rabbit’s foot is a sign that you are a good shot with a gun‒or have a friend who is.

~When three men get a light off one match it is indicative of the fact that they have only one match or are Scotsmen.

(Well, it was from a different era…) 🙂

# Groucho!

So if I were to insist upon a specific phrasing to describe a flag featuring a lavalier, would that make me - a pendant pennant pedant?
