Church Signs Are Getting Better

Posted on by

I saw this one near Northgate today:

Sin fascinates, then it assassinates.

I have loved church signs since I learned to read. Not enough to go in or anything, but that’s another story. Man, churches must have their work cut out for them here, what with the high numbers of godless communists and all. There are more church signs here. Mostly stupid, but number ten made me laugh.

In Other News: Crash Course

My sweet, formerly immobile slug of a baby has decided to begin pulling up at just eight months old. But that’s not enough. She also has to let go and swan dive to the floor, or cruise using the futon so she can menace the cat. I didn’t sign up for this! I don’t want an upgrade. If she starts walking next month I’m going on strike.

She wanged her head at least three times before my babydaddy left for work. I dub thee “Little Baby Welty Face,” which is better than “Little Baby Whiskeybreath,” at least.

  1. I had heart palpitations when my oldest, at 10 months, started running into walls (he went from crawl to RUN), and then by my third (a daughter, where the first two were sons), my Bear decided that she was going to walk on the day she turned NINE months old. I knew then that I was in for a ride… kudos and luck to you!

  3. I’ve seen those signs! Is it, by any chance, that wacky church around 65th & Roosevelt? They have the ay-MAY-zing-est slogans.

  4. said sign just over a block form our new place. You were going to the Big Star Beer Mart, I hope!

  5. Walking early is exciting only with first babies, or for hyper-competitive morons like my ex-sis-in-law. Subsequent babies should remain lumpen until 15 months, lest they be tethered to a peg in the center of the room, or plopped in a box (hey, we leave the top open).

  7. I’m telling ya, velcro on the ceiling-it’s the only answer when they start lurching enthusiastically about like tiny, uncoordinated, big-headed bulldozers.

  8. Hi SJ,

    On the church signs, there have been a couple of good ones popping up here in Sydney recently:

    “If you only come once a week, it’s a good week.”

    And;

    “Come inside and we’ll kick the Hell out of you.”

    Very funny.

    Apparently the church in question is “between ministers” and a local youth signed up to fill the breech for a while…

    Cheers,

    Will
