Tonight, I come to you, my friends, in SHAME...

[Russell Roberts]

as the chief of sinners. I ate too much cornbread dressing so, as per Biblical instructions, I now confess my sins. I, Russell Roberts, am a lowly, pathetic, degenerate, scummy sinner. I ask you to forgive me, a lowly sinner. The guilt is tearing me up inside. I want to make a formal request to Pastah to help me through this time of guilt and shame. I further commit to limiting my portion size for the rest of the week.

NOT!!!

Cornbread dressing is expressly exempted from any and all gluttony accusations, I am pretty sure.

Thank you my brother for comforting me in this, my time of great shame.

Actually, my mother made something called "Pineapple Casserole". I ragged on her for quite some time how I would avoid it, how it sounded nasty..blah, blah, blah.

It, my friend, was truly awesome. The name simply doesn't do it justice. But it should be labelled as a desert. I ate more of that than the cornbread dressing (which is saying a lot for me). How was your Thansgiving Pastah? Yor frig holding up ok?

I fear the refrigerator is soon to need major repairs or just stop running. After this weekend I may call Sears and see how much a service call runs.

That's messed up bruh. Pastor's shouldn't have to worry about that kind of crap. I'm glad God didn't call me to be a Pastor. I think I'm too mean to be a pastor.

Pastors have to be nice?

[Russell Roberts]

Well.....that's what Joel Osteen said.

Irthenvsl,
You didn't do nothing compared to what I done...

I ate too much turkey, candied yams, mashed potatoes, cranberry salad, corn, peas, grape salad, and....

When it came time for pie my mamma asked if I wanted Pecan or Pumpkin and I said, "yes".
So I had a slice of each on my plate.

I may never live down the shame of it all...by belly still hurts this morning.

and since she sent me home with leftovers...I fear that I am gonna relive this sin all over again...

(Just when you think you done bad someone else has to top you)

And is it truly repentance if you say you are sorry while having a big smile on your face and are more than willing to do it again and again?...and likely will.

[Russell Roberts]

John, you are a sinner among sinners, the chiefest of them all. Repent and be baptized. Turn or burn. Go to confession NOW while there is still time. Receive your absolution.

There's probably gonna be some penance before that absolution . . .

[JohnDB]

You mean that big nap...and that swollen belly...(still from yesterday)
ain't enough pennance...course I was planning on doing it again tonight with the leftovers...maybe just a little snack for lunch...

I got gingerbread houses to bake...I ain't got time for pennance...and still...with that big smile and feelings of contentment and a real lack of remorse...

I am definately gonna need some prayers on this one before I have the motivation to repent...

Because If I would do it all again in a heartbeat...I just would...
I am having a real difficult time feeling remorse over this one....I wanna do it again.

[crispfin]

I for one did not overeat yesterday, so reading all this stuff about painful bellies is actually filling me with an inflated sense of my own righteousness. I'm so great, and that's why God loves me.

[Russell Roberts]

Crisp,

I can understand that. Lord, I thank you that I'm not like other men...even like these Gluttons over there...

[Dr. Ron]

Never, I say never, apologize for over eating "cornbread dressing". If God had not wanted us to overeat on that food, he would not have allowed southern women to develop that recipe........

And as for punkin pie.......go on with yo bad self.........that is manna!!!!

Thanksgiving was a blast yesterday. Perfect weather. Kids laughing and playing....riding the goats, the 4 wheelers, playing in the creek........perfect.


And the Titans slaughtered the Lions!!!!

How'd you know what I was praying?
