My wife gave birth this morning! We are now the proud parents of triplets!
Wow-eee. We had no idea. Three plus two makes five boys.
I guess now I can have the basketball team I always wanted. If only we were taller...

You know, the key to a good AFD joke is subtlety.
But hey, whatever works, right?
What is the max jail sentence for killing a Pastor?!!!!!!!
(Inside joke)
Cos, if you're looking to kill a "pastor," then that'll get you locked up for a long time.
But it is spring turkey season here in Texas, in case that helps . . .
Cos, the joke isn't going to be so inside anymore...

Yeah, whatever works... IT WORKED!!! Man, I should have been a lot more outrageous. I didn't think anyone would believe it. The only two people in my regular day to day physical life who read this blog are Alan and Cos.
Well Alan got it. (see comment 1)
But Cos? Well, let's just say that around 2pm I got a call from my youth minister asking if my wife had our baby? I asked where he heard that from. From the church secretary. Who heard it from a lady in our church. Who heard it from her sister-in-law who is another lady in our church...who is married to COS!
He called his wife! She called me to verify, and I didn't answer the phone! (doh) She then called several others including (but not limited to) the church secretary, her brother, and three hospitals.
I called Cos, and said "Plug up the dike man!" It's not true! It was a joke!" He said he was afraid to go home! He had to call his wife and tell her it was a joke. I hope she doesn't change the locks before he gets home.
I called my father-in-law (who was with my wife at Sam's at the time she "had our triplets") and he had gotten a call. For some reason, he wasn't laughing... woops.
There's got to be a sermon illustration in there somewhere. All it takes is one person, and in one hour, dozens of people will believe something. There's a real woweee for you. I'm still wondering if people are going to show up at my doorstep tonight congratulating me on our triplets. (It may be hard to preach sunday morning. "There's the pastor who told us his wife had triplets. You can't believe a word he says.")
Woops. 
Qoute: "You guys a Dorks!" "Dorks on the Internet" "..and one Dork believes another Dork and now I have to call all those people back!!!"........hmzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
So I am here at work praying a problem occurs. A network outage. A server down. Anything so I don't have to go home where my wife has a can of WhoopA$$ waiting for me.
Phil you Dork, I am not as nearly as mad at you as I am at myself.


Congratulations.
What a coincidence! You know, because triplets run in your mailman's family.
