Just for Laughs
Missionary Annie Lou
Well, here it is, the next time “aready”.
I’m still coming to “ya” all the way from
Homeyville, SC. In case some of ya’II
reading “fa” the first time, I’m Missionary
Annie Lou. Been a writing bout the tales of
Homeyville for some time now, and the
adventures of Missionary Annie Lou. Ain’t
no telling what’ll be next wit me.
Most important thang. I ain’t in DC nor
Maryland. We gotta pray. That sniper
gotta stop the foolishness of killing inocent
people. Only thang that “kin” stop him is
prayer. So Missionary Annie Lou got out a
all points bullentin for all prayer warriors.
new” till “dey” see, thangs is mostly the same, it’s just folks is bolder
bout doing what “dey” do. Folks been doing all “dese” terrible
thangs Now a days technology is just revealing they secrets thangs in
the dark, course it just like the Bible say, what’s done in the house will
come “ta” the roof top. Who ever woulda thought, it would be through
all this new stuff man created.. HalHa! Oh Man is back ta” work again.
As for Missionary Annie Lou, she just gonna keep the ole-timey way in
front of “huh”. She just says, “ifin” it ain’t broke, and “ifin” it ain’t both
ering “ya”, just let it alone. The old way ain’t broke and it show nough
ain’t bothering me.
Hee! Haw! Till next time Be safe and enjoy your Christmas Holiday.

Lord Has Come.

Let’s get to sending up “dem” prayers against this here sniper. He's not
doing the right thang, so let’s pray some dangerous prayers..
Now that reminds me, back when I “WUZ” A GIRL, we had “ta”
near bout do everythang right; wun’t hardly no space for error.
Anyhows, one day I went ta sneezing, and sneezing, and sneezing, and
before I could “git one sneeze out,.thare come another. Well by the time
I got through “wit” all of “dat”. Here come my grandma. Annie Lou,
“mind your manners gal”, and say excuse me. Well, I said, yes Mam,
and said it. Honey, you know what she said, you gotta say it three time
cause you sneezed three times. So, there I stood saying excuse me
three times, just like I done sneezed. Now, I thought “dat” was hard, but
I’m glad she done that cause I don’t ever forgit to say it.... til “dis” day.
It showed made us “beddar” folks. Now, when “ya” sneeze, they
looking “fa” somebody who “beared” “ya” “ta” say, God Bless “ya”.
Well, I guess that’s alright, but looks like the one who sneezes, “git”
outta saying “Notin”. So, it seems kind a different than when I wuz a girl.
Course, thangs show nough different from when I wuz a girl, tike this
one. When we “wuz” “chilrin” all over to grandma’s. Everythang would
be “goin” fine till a thunder storm come up. Well, then everything was
cut off. The lights, the TV, the radio, and no- body “beddar” not dial that
number and that phone “beddar” not ring. Not just that, ya beddar not
talk. “lfin”-you did, it “beddar” be Lard, have mercy or a prayer of ya
liking, but it would been “beddar” ifin it was a prayer of “huh” (my
grandma’s) that is. Cause she “useta” always say, the Lord is doing his
work keep quiet in “dis” house, and “ya” bet, we “youngins” did. Yep,
now a days folks will keep on the TV, the lights. The VCR, the Computer
and everythang else just like they is having a party while God’s work is
a “goin”! Honey, folks is crazy. Ya know “dey” will try us old folks now
in a storm. First thang, I ain’t gonna be out in no storm. If I am, I’m in
a big rush to “git” back home. Well, in a storm, I don’t do notin. Just
like ole Grandma told us. No TV, no Radio, no talking and especially, on
that phone. Weil, like I say “dem” young ones will try “ya” every time.
Yep, a storm was a brewing and a brewing the thunder was a roiling
and the lighting was a flashing. Honey, I wuz bout to just lay down and
go “ta” sleep. You know “dat” devilish phone rang. Honey, I answered,
and whoever it was says, Hey Missionary Annie Lou how you
doing Honey, I tried to keep my manners in tact, but I couldn’t. All I
said to them was, “Not in A stom” and I immediately hung up and left
them a talking to the “CLICK” ! I don’t even know who it was and I’m
so glad “dey” had enough sense not “ta” call me back “agin” that
night Ch Lord, I was hot “wit” them, Honey...Whew. The next day I
said, “Dem young folks will show try ya!. I’m still Annie Lou and I still
believe in the “old-timey” way, bout Church and everythang else when
it comes “ta” this what they say, “a new day”. “Dey” just thank it’s “a
