It was early into our first few summers in Milwaukee. The church was pretty grown and we were planing a saturday barbeque at the park. By this time, we hadn't needed a grill. Naturally the men in our church decided that this was a task they should perform and Pastor Greorge, Tony Negron, and Scott Mayzure began the much needed search for the perfect grilling machine. They found it. A six foot, twelve-burner, fold-away grill was what they chose. To get it home, Pastor George brought a large trailer (because it was the only think that could fit such a massive meat cooker) from home. As they put it on, the three locked the grill's wheels and foolishly decided that as long as the wheels were locked, there was no need to put the back on the trailer. To their credit, they did make it almost to the park, however, during the last few blocks, Pastor Greorge hit the gass a little too hard and felt a slight bump as he drove along. None of them took much notice of this until Tony looks over his shoulder out the side window to see something rolling past the car at 30 miles an hour. "Hey," he said "doesnt that look like the grill?" Pastor Greorge and Scott watch as thier precious fire-cooker drag-raced them down the street! Pastor George slams on the brakes and the three of them get out of the car and begin a foot pursuit of a large, black grill wearing 12 burners and perfect chrome covers... Back at the park, we've been waiting for a while when we see the strangest sight: a huge black grill shoot past us on the street. No one says a word until we catch sight of our three heros hard on its perverbial heels... hilarious.
A few years ago, Pastor George began the process of getting a Doctorate of Ministry Degree. In the world of the scholarly, they call this a D-Min degree. That sunday, the Pastor got up in front of the church and declared that he has decided to get his D-Min degree. Unfortunately, when said out loud, D-Min sound suspiciously like "demon"... Needless to say, many were perplexed and an explanation was given the next sunday: "Beloved, Pastor George would like all to know that D-Min stands for Doctorate of Ministry, not demon. He is not getting a degree in demonology. Thank you."
