Annual Singing Christmas Tree
A church heavy into programs and promotions sponsored an annual
singing Christmas Tree. As with all such programming, it had to be
enlarged and improved each year to maintain interest.
They had increased its size to the maximum for the building. They
added real trees, then an orchestra. What would they do next?
They decided to dress a man as an angel and lower him through the
ceiling on a wire to hover over the choir during some of the songs. It
was dramatic and everything went well until the wire jammed about
halfway down.
There he was! Slowly turning and helpless.
The "angel" began to yell, "Get me down, Get me down!" Soon, his
yell became, "I'm going to sue you!" Finally our "angel" began to add
curses to his shouts. The choir tried to keep its composure.
Finally, the "angel's" slow turning in the wind made him nauseated
and he began vomiting all over the choir!
I wonder what they did the following year.
