Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man: FIMMism is Spreading!


Episode 104: MIScommunication Disease!  It's spreading!

FIMM's been away for several weeks now on assignment.  He will be for several more weeks as you all are playing "Where's FIMM?"  He thought he would send a special gift to Bonnie so she would know how much he missed her and the babies while he was on location. 

FIMM ordered a locket for Bonnie. On one side she could put a picture of FIMM and on the other side a picture of their babies: Timm, Jimm, Kimm, Slimm and Enrique.  He ordered it to be engraved.  He told the lady on the phone. "Have it engraved: To my Bonnie and underneath... All my love, FIMM."





Oh no!  FIMMism is spreading!  It's transmitted through the phone lines! 
Be very careful that it isn't transmitted through the internet...

Oh miscommunication. This is too funny.

When placing orders I always have the operator repeat the order just to be sure we are on the same page.

My kids and I love FIMM - we can relate! My DS is soooo literal that he could be that operator that took FIMM's order! He is one reason I got "Say What you Mean", LOL!

Your Blog is uplifting- as always, JoJo! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. MeritK

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll share news items, quotes, family friendly humor, tips, trivia, and my newest feature: Question of the Week. I invite you to come share your thoughts! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
