PEANUT BUTTER AND PICKLE SANDWICH

I used to be the person who was against this sandwich and then tried it and loved it. I was like Saul and then I became Paul. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, you have two choices. Either read the Bible (start with Acts chapter 9), or if you don't have that much time, and you're physically hungry more than you're spiritually hungry, make the sandwich.

Things you'll need: Peanut Butter, Bread, Pickles, a butter knife, and something flat and heavy like a history book.

Step one. Spread peanut butter on both slices of bread.
Step two. Cut pickle in slices. (use dill, they're better.) Because you are using a butter knife, (the rounded kind, not pointy), give your brother or sister a poke. It won't hurt.
Step three. Put pickles on one piece of bread and seal it with other piece of bread.
Step four. Now is the time to use your heavy, flat object. Let's just say it's a history book. Put your history book on your sandwich and give it a good smash. We all know that flat food tastes
better! Now take a bite and enjoy.

This is how you'll feel after eating this sandwich------>

Stephen's Most Embarassing Moment (or one of them)

2006-09-12T11:03:00.000-07:00

This is a picture of when i made the basketball team in 8th grade. I was such a butterball - don't you agree???

Ok so i was in 8th grade at Coose Middle School, where i attended Jr. High. We call it "Middle School" in Georgia. Anyway, one of the things i really really wanted in Jr. High was to make the basketball team. In 8th grade, somehow i DID make it only to most of the season sit the bench, but its all good. One particular day for our practice time, there was a planned scrimmage against our girls team. You know how it is, both teams needed to get some sort of idea of how things would look running your plays against a different team and that kind of thing. What makes this so funny to me though, is the day of the scrimmage, one of the girls from the basketball team (April Davis) decided that she would come to school that day and talk trash to us.

Talk trash = making fun; saying we won't win; saying we're not very good; she's better

So, to make a long story a bit shorter, April was the 2nd string Center for the girls team and i was the 2nd string Center for the guys team. So all day i'm thinking, "i can't wait to play against her and stuff the ball in her face." Don't worry, i wasn't bitter. So in the midst of her saying all sorts of things about our team and all of us dudes getting frustrated, we were all ready to play, especially against her. Well, so when our second string goes into the game - the guys team is up by a pretty good amount. Here it is though, the match up i've been waiting for. Me vs. April Davis and i could hardly wait to do something good against her so she would eat her words again. So, i post up and yell for the ball from our shooting guard (Josh Teems) and sure enough i have the ball and i'm about to try a turn around jump shot. Now, before i finish this moment, one thing you HAVE to know about me is that i am without a doubt blind without my glasses or my contacts in. So, i get the ball and i do the turn around jump shot deal. Things are looking good, i feel good about the shot. Just as i released the ball from my fingertips two things happen. 1. i yell at April - "In YOUR face - WOO HOO!" 2. In mid - air she knocks my glasses completely off of my face to where i can't see much of anything. So in my mind the ball looks like it is going right into the net, i'm feeling good about it, and i felt like i just scored on the ONE girl that i wanted to and really HAD to. Can you guess what happens?

That's right - the ball that looked like it was going in the hoop sailed completely OVER the goal and literally everyone on the court just froze and had looks on their faces like, "What in the world was that?" The embarassing part; i thought it was going in AND it was against a girl. Sad times.

Alanna's Most Embarrassing Moment

2006-09-11T16:34:00.000-07:00

Oh boy...this is a picture of me as an incoming 7th grader...before I learned I could smile with my teeth. Ha!

Well my most embarrassing moment happened in my English class in 8th grade. We were giving speeches...persuasive speeches if I remember correctly. I was pretty confident in my speech and in my public speaking abilities. However, after about 30 seconds into my speech I started getting really wierd, awkward looks from the audience. So, naturally I got a little uncomfortable. Was I not doing a very good job.?..oh great...my speech is boring...I knew it was going to be boring. Luckily I survived the speech without passing out or barfing...but when I sat back in my seat the wierd looks didn't stop. Finally after the bell rang I was informed of the reason behind all the wierd looks. My friend Marlowe (we called her Mo) came up to me and said, "Oh my gosh Alanna, your zipper was down for your whole speech!" I was mortified...than she continued..."No...Alanna...you don't understand...it wasn't just down...it was down and OPEN...everyone saw your underwear!" It really doesn't get worse than that....

Oh wait...it does! About a week later my friend was riding the bus home from school and this boy...who was a pretty big deal at La Paz Intermediate...was looking through my friends wallet at all her pictures. And when he came to a picture of me...he said, "Oh my gosh...that's the girl who gave a speech with her zipper down in Mrs. Pappas' class!" He wasn't even in my class! Apparently news of my little mishap had spread to the hot guy in school! Now it REALLY doesn't get any worse than that!

Mariah's Most Embarrassing Moment

2006-09-08T11:06:00.000-07:00

That's me on the right, next to my friend Coco! When I was in Junior High my friends and I would love to goof around in class, passing notes, making jokes, making fun of the teacher, you know typical junior high stuff. I was in 6th period, Advanced Science, with Mr. Evanston and it was my birthday. All my friends had brought me flowers and balloons and treats to carry around throughout the day. My friend Michelle and I got hungry during 6th period and decided to open up some tiny jawbreakers that were given to me in one of those tube things. Anyway, anyone who knows Mr. Evanston understands there is never under any circumstance are allowed food or candy in the class. Well, as I tried to get the cap off, I realized it was stuck so with all my might, I pulled, You see I was very strong in junior high as you can tell from my picture, all the tiny jawbreakers went everywhere. There wasn't one person in class who didn't turn around and start laughing. Mr. Evanston looked at me with fury in his eyes and told me to pick every last one off the ground, ALONE. "you mean know one could help me?" I asked. "Nope," he said and I began to pick them up by hand. There were what felt like a thousand. It took all class long and then some. From that day out I was know as jawbreaker girl in science.

Elizabeth's Most Embarrassing Moment

2006-09-07T14:19:00.000-07:00

(I would like everyone to note that in this picture...yes, I am wearing a fanny pack and yes...the shirt I am wearing is from computer camp.)

So back when I was in junior high, the church that I attended went on a retreat every summer. One night during the retreat, some of the cute boys from our church were swimming in the pool and my best friend and I decided to go too! Unfortunately, you had to climb over a fence to get inside the pool. My friend climbed over first, and I followed..only the fence got caught on the back pocket of my shorts and I was caught, suspended in the air, with all the cute boys laughing at me. It gets better: my best friend tried to help me by giving me a chair to stand on, but when I freed my shorts from the fence, I fell ON the chair, knocking it over and falling on the ground. Needless to say, the cute boys were NOT impressed..and I turned ten shades of red.

Matt Hall's Most Embarassing Moment

2006-09-07T11:45:00.000-07:00

It was the summer of 1986 and I was at church summer camp, up at Ponderosa Pines in Running Springs, Ca. I was going into the 7th grade and it was my first time at camp. I was super nervous and scared to be away from home for an entire week. And the main source of my fear was thinking about eating a weeks worth of nasty camp food.
The first two days of camp went great! I met a new best friend, played some fun games, and the speaker was awesome!
On day three, the camp food began to kick in. My stomach was feeling a little weird, but nothing really out of the ordinary (I've had my share of stomach issues). As I was competing in a sweet game of tug o' war, I suddenly felt what I thought was a gas bubble deep in the depths of my stomach. The pain was intense, almost too much to bear. So, as I continued to pulled on the rope, I did what I had done hundreds of times before...I pushed to release the gas. But, to my surprise, it wasn't gas!!! Yep, I pooed my pants...at sumer camp! Can you believe that?! I had to carefully waddle from the sports field, up to my cabin (normally a 3 minute walk that took 15 minutes), to change my shorts. And to top it off, I was 20 minutes late for lunch!
Man that was embarrassing!

Kevin's Most Embarrassing Moment

2006-09-06T16:04:00.000-07:00

When I was in 8th grade, there was a girl that pretty much liked every guy in school. Her name was Christy and she was in my typing class.

Now, at my school, we actually had typewriters. We also had computers, but typewriters were cheaper and so they had a bunch of them for us to practice our typing. The thing about typewriters is that they are very loud and so when you've got 20 of them going in a small room, it was very loud and very hard to talk. We all just sort of got used to it and talked really loud.

Well one day, we were typing away (We had very lame sentences to type, "My dog's name is Rufus. He is very friendly. He is fun to pet.") and Christy, who is sitting on the other side of the room, decides to declare her love for me, and yelling over the roar of 19 typewriters, shouts, "Kevin Reeves, I love you so much! Will you go out with me?!"

The thing that made it even more embarrassing was that Christy just happened to say it at the exact moment in time when everyone stopped typing. So it was typing, typing, typing, typing, complete silence, "Kevinreevesiloveyousomuchwillyougooutwithme?!!!"

Of course everyone in class watched me to see what I would say. And what did I say? Out of all the millions of things that I could say, I chose:

"I have to keep typing."

And I went back to my typing. Very embarrassing.

Allison's Most Embarrassing Moment

2006-09-05T20:40:00.000-07:00

How awesome is this picture? That's me in 7th grade. I used to wear that shirt all the time. It was very cool back then. (Or at least I thought so.) And I wore those earrings because I thought they matched the spots on the shirt. LAME!

Anyway, my most embarrassing moment actually happened in Wildside. When I was in 7th grade, we didn't have C-Groups in homes...we all met at the church in 404 to have "big fun game time" and then went to different portables for small groups.

One day after school and before "midweek" I shaved my legs for the very first time. When I got to church that night, I told my friends in my small group...they told Katie Edwards (who was Katie Sadler then, and my small group leader)...she told the Junior High pastor (Greg Lafferty).

Greg then gets up on stage and says "Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know...Allison shaved her legs for the first time tonight! You know what, Allison come on up here on stage...and anyone else, if you shaved your legs today come on up on stage, you can help us run this next game!"

I was so embarrassed. Mostly because this guy I thought was cute had heard about me shaving my legs. So I ran out of the room crying. Katie still apologizes for embarrassing me that night...

Kurt's Most Embarrassing Moment

See that picture? That's me in 8th grade. I'm not sure why it's in black and white. I'm old, but they DID have colored photos back then!

Anyway, my most embarrassing Jr. High moment actually takes place on the very first day of school of my Freshmen year of high school. I was sitting under a huge tree with my best friend Mike Pace. We were totally nervous and anxiously awaiting the bell to ring to start our high school journey. I didn't know it at the time, but in the tree above us sat some sort of bird. I don't know what kind of bird, but it must have been massive. The reason I know it was a big bird was because of the size of the bird turd it dumped on my shoulder. That's right, just as the bell was ringing to go to our first class, a MASSIVE bird poop splattered all over my shoulder! I couldn't believe it! I took off running for the nearest bathroom and spent several minutes dumping water on myself trying to clean the mess. Instead, I just made it worse. In order to avoid getting a tardy in my first class on my first day of highschool, I ran out of the bathroom with a soaking wet, sorta clean but mostly turdy shirt! I got to class in time, but I'll never forget the stares and giggles from everybody. Other than that, my first day of high school was pretty fun.
