Here is the question:
IN WHAT BOOK OF THE NEW TESTAMENT
DO YOU FIND ROMANS 8:28?
You are not eligible for this contest if you are under 18 years of age, are left-handed, wear contacts, live in a brick house, own a wrist watch, are female, have a job, can read, have eaten ham or beef, use any kind of deodorant, are male, have seen a lizard or live north of the Antarctic Circle.
Hmmmmm. This has got to be a trick question. I'm going to have to ponder this one for a while.
ReplyDeleteHere's a hint: rearrange this word and you will find the answer:
ReplyDeleteRANSOM
Oh drat! I thought I had made there for a minute but I'm left handed. Oh well, better luck next time.
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth though, I think I know the answer (thanks for the hint). The answer is MORANS but I think you mispelled it. It is "morons."
707 (that's Laughing Out Loud while I am upside down)
ReplyDeleteUh, 2nd Hezekiah?
ReplyDeleteMichael,
ReplyDeleteHow did you get Hezekiah from RANSOM?
OK, I'm getting over not qualifying for the $5,000. gift certificate.
ReplyDeleteI went to my local Jesus Junk Store and I really can't see how I could spend over fifty bucks in there.
I think I'm eligible, because one of the qualifications, is that you have to be able to read, and since I can't read that means I don't understand any of the qualifications.
ReplyDelete(Boy all it takes to find a loophole is to just read.) Oops, did I just admit that I don't qualify?
Anyway the answer is obviously the Bible, boy, what was so hard about that question?
I find it in Ezekiel, exactly where I copied and pasted it. I am eligible. I'm a dog who lives outside; the female only feeds me turkey bacon (disgusting stuff); I close my eyes whenever I sense a lizard is near, nor am I under 18 dog years of age.
ReplyDeleteone question dog:
ReplyDeletedo you live north of the Antarctic Circle?
bark once for yes or twice for no...or just type me a message.
I always carry a mirror with me so that I can live in the other direction. So that would be affirmative.
ReplyDeletethen...and I really hate to say this...you are disqualified.
ReplyDeleteOuch. That hurt. But it's okay, my friend. What doesn't kill me can only make me sleep harder.
ReplyDeleteInstead of a gift certificate to the Christian book store of our choice, could you please change to a certificate for ten free car washes?
ReplyDeleteEddie,
ReplyDeleteI'd really, Really, REALLY like to win the grand prize but I know I am disqualified for being a southpaw.
Nevertheless, I have a beef with you. You and Obama quite alike.
Obama said, "I BELIEVE THAT WHEN YOU SPREAD THE WEALTH AROUND, IT IS A GOOD THING." I have not yet received my share of the wealth.
At the top of your blog you wrote, "BECOME A FAITHFUL FULL-FLEDGED FOLLOWER OF THIS BANTERING BLOG AND RECEIVE HEAVENLY REWARDS AND POSSIBLY A TOASTER!" I have been a faithful, full-fledged follower since almost day one and I still don't have a toaster.
Well, Ralph...
ReplyDeletefirst of all, the heading does state:
"POSSIBLY a toaster" which means maybe so or maybe no.
second of all, the toaster I am referring to is a Mr. Galahad Pontoon, who is a member of "Toastmasters International of Walla Walla, Washington". If you want an extra mouth to feed (and he eats like a horse...he uses a feed bag over his face) and are willing to support him financially for the rest of his life (or yours - whichever comes first) then I will let him know. He will be at your door in less than 24 hours.
But, I will leave that decision to you.
...oh yeah, don't overlook the Heavenly rewards! They are much better than any ten car washes you could receive on earth! Maybe you will get a toaster there.
ReplyDelete...or maybe not.
ReplyDeleteman I completely disqualify for this competition :(
ReplyDeleteso basically only a caveman could apply? one living south of the antartic cicle and who has never seen a lizard and who is a hermaphrodite? no fair :(
I only wish these rules were different...but, alas, I have to abide by them too. Maybe the next contest with valuable prizes will not be so strict.
ReplyDelete...but don't bet on it...
ReplyDelete..because gambling is a sin.
It's not a sin if you promise God a tithe of your winnings.
ReplyDeletealright Mr. Eddie
ReplyDeletelol! sure Ralph..
