Jacked Up Jack-O-Lantern CONTEST WINNER



Founding Member Pumpkin
This pumpkin eats pastors for breakfast, and because he is one of the founding members of the church everyone lets him. Founding member pumpkin has not found a pastor yet that he didn't like to chew on, and he has spit out every pastor the church has had since the first one in 1953....

Congratulations Steve, you are the official winner! It was a tough call. The vat was so thick with sarcasm that I could scarcely lift the ladle. But when all the judges had sampled their fill of mockery, Founding Member Pumpkin came out smelling....well, like pumpkin guts, actually, which is good in a rotten vomit kind of way. E-mail me at stacyasmall@att.net to claim your mullet gift o' rama. And I think I speak for all SFL readers when I say please, please assemble the costume and send us a picture.

Honorable Mentions:
Jon Acuff gave props to Rob's "When Church Janitors Go Bad"
MCTC loved mistymorningmountain with the Joel Olstein/John Piper parody
SFL would also like to recognize Miss Hannah for the Home School Mom bit (classic AWANAs)

On a side note, SFL has been up and running for almost 3 whole months. You know, readers, you mean so much to me. It's time you knew just how much...(dim lights, cue Luther Vandros music)...



I feel so much better about myself...

Steve,

I tip my giant, feathered hat of sarcasm to you, my friend. Well played, indeed. As with all good sarcasm, it's funny because, on some level, it's true. I see my error: To my knowledge, John Piper has not eaten Joel Olsteen, but given the opportunity...

Steve said...

Wow, I am so honored. This may well be the happiest day of my life. I have not had a mullet since about 1984.....

Unfortunately Stacy I am on an offshore oil platform in Arctic Russia right now, so it will be a couple weeks until I can get a picture to you. I promise to do so as soon as possible.

This is Steve's wife. I feel compelled to tell you that I can't believe that winning the contest is the happiest day of his life. We have 5 kids and we've been married for 22 years. Hmmmm ok maybe winning a contest for ALL those great prizes should be the happiest day of his life.

Stacy from Louisville said...

Momuv5,
Shocking!

Maybe the best day of your life will be taking his photo in the mullet and the rest of the get up he's won and sending it out in Christmas cards.

Just saying....

Side Hugs,
Stacy

I think Momuv5 should get the prize. I doubt she too is on the offshore oil rig...meaning she has all 5 kids by herself! This woman deserves a mullet!

I found pumpkins that are even more disturbing- The Obama pumpkins http://yeswecarve.com/

Steve said...

Just to clarify, Momuv5 only has 3 at home. The other two are in college and should be fairly independant.

I know 3 is enough....
