FIMM Contest Winner: First Guest Author!

Thanks to all who entered the Foot in Mouth Man Guest Author Contest!  You are all so creative!  Here is our first winner!  Previously on the Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man...Click here! Episode 64: The BBQ FIMM and Bonnie were planning a BBQ dinner to be held at their house.  Bonnie told FIMM she would like to invite their neighbors they hadn't met, since neither one of them had family living nearby.  When the phone rang with the first RSVP, FIMM answered. FIMM: "Hello." Neighbor: "Hello.  This is your neighbor, Mr. Adams, from two doors down.  I was calling to let you know we will attend the BBQ.  I have a question, though." FIMM: "What is it?" Neighbor: "Is this a family party?" FIMM: "No.  Our family lives far away." Neighbor: "I was asking if children were invited to attend." FIMM: "Sorry, we don't have any children to tend to." Neighbor: "I simply would like to know if this is an adult party only, or are entire families with children invited?" By now Mr. Adams was beginning to wonder if his neighbor FIMM knew how to read the directions on a gas grill.  KABOOM!

Lol...that one was good! The best I could come up with was a link to the foot in mouth disease currently going around in the UK! Everytime I heard about it on the BBC, I kept picturing all the British cows standing around with thier front hooves in their mouths. Funny, yet not. My mind is a scary place to be.... Anyway, have a great night! Vicki
