Do you know how to make a little old lady shout "M&*#%F(@!!!?"

Just have another little old lady shout "Bingo!"

Jesus will be confused deciding which old lady's prayers to answer tonight!

Can I get an "Amen" and a B-7?

I went to Bingo at Mt. Carmel last Monday for the first time. What a blast! These Bingo Ladies are Serious - 20 boards, pounding away with those markers they use. BRING MARKERS - you will need them. Have fun. ~ Nancy

Are these marker- only boards? How much does each play cost? Do you know?

never call out bingo by accident (from one who knows)--

IJWP (If Jesus were playing), He'd buy just one board, which would then multiply a la the loaves and fishes. He'd also never, never lose. But He also wouldn't bother to pick up His winnings no matter how much Andrew and Peter nagged at Him.

We went and played. It was a fun night! We didn't win, but hopefully next time!

There are some real characters that come!

This DOES sound like a lot of fun and I'd like to make the next one...when is it?

But do I have to wear my hair in a beehive and tortoise-shell "cat" eyeglasses with a gold chain?

From my memories of Papist grade school days, Miss Martta, it might also help to wear your old "Legion of Mary" pin.

Posted by: cathar | Aug 2, 2005 10:44:00 AM

LOL, Cathar!

Considering all the F-words I heard flying around, it didnt feel much like a Catholic basement.

It's every Monday @ 7:30.

Cussin' is allowed in the basement. There's some kind of insulation that prevents it from emanatin' upstairs.
