(like me) Are these things mutually exclusive? I&#8217;m not sure if you&#8217;ve noticed, but Christians are not a terribly funny bunch. Okay, let me rephrase that.<\/p>\n<p>Prayerful Christians are usually on the serious side. No, not all, but plenty of them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I realize I fall into a very narrow minority. I&#8217;m an odd mix of God-aware and straight off the silly truck.<\/strong><em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>This is where Triple Dog Dare comes in.<\/strong><br \/>\nYou would not believe how hard it is to start the ball rolling to get people unified and interested in <strong>prayer<\/strong>, but humor? That covers a lot of people. It&#8217;s transcends culture, geography, age, and clothing preferences.<\/p>\n<p>On Facebook, I&#8217;ve started a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Triple-Dog-Dare-Lisa-DeLay\/115425358470924?ref=ts\">page<\/a>, and I&#8217;m letting out all the stops. That&#8217;s some kind of euphemism for going hog wild, which is something hogs do all the time when they aren&#8217;t laying around in a contemplative fashion in the soil.<\/p>\n<p>Triple Dog Dare is about having fun, sharing humor, and enjoying a great time laughing. &#8220;Killjoy&#8221; is never an adjective used to describe me. I&#8217;ll be posting a lot of photos that are ridiculous and comedic or ludicrous (or other things described with the endings of &#8220;ous&#8221;)- and stuff that probably doesn&#8217;t fit the theme here so perfectly. (It&#8217;s possible that I pushed it with the Crucifixion Pastry. For some reason some in the lesbian community really enjoyed that one, but I still don&#8217;t get why. oh well.) I&#8217;ll be sharing the tid bits of my ordinary life that somehow have a way of being extraordinary bizarre (in a good way), and hilarious. Won&#8217;t you please join me?<\/p>\n<p><em>Why did I call it Triple Dog Dare? <\/em><br \/>\nIf you&#8217;ve ever seen the movie &#8220;A Christmas Story,&#8221; it&#8217;ll make sense. See if this link to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8XlPwsmkPHI\">video clip<\/a> works. About once a week, I&#8217;ll Triple Dog Dare fans with some creative <a href=\"http:\/\/dictionary.reference.com\/browse\/jape\">jape<\/a>. Then we&#8217;ll see what results, hopefully in video, photos, and tales of adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Will <em>this<\/em> blog get more serious? I have to admit, I have not a clue. It may get more focused, but I see some intertwining as a distinct possibility. Let&#8217;s see this new extension as all part of organic growth.
