I can't wait to get home.

I'm going home on Tuesday to see my family and most especially my brother Ryan, who is just home from a tour of duty to beautiful Djibouti, Africa. I hear he's glad to be home, and I would be too. Anyway, since I'm headed to the land of Jesus signs, it seemed like an appropriate time to share with you a new one, emailed to me by Daniel, my sister Hannah's boyfriend, who knows that I collect these things.

For those of you unfamiliar with rap music, the phrase "Drop it like it's hot" is a refrain from a song by Snoop Dogg, thus qualifying this as maybe the worst collision between pop culture and a church sign I've ever seen. I especially love that the word "it's" in "drop it like it's hot" has no apostrophe and the word altar is spelled wrong. This means it qualifies it for top honors in two categories: Poor Taste in Religious Messaging AND Bad Public Grammar. I just KNOW this church is somewhere in the South.

See y'all soon.

Wow. What a perfect example of a situation in which you don't know whether to laugh or to cry! That one is definitely a keeper. I hope you have a WONDERFUL time with your family. :)

I didn't know you were coming home! Hooray for Hattiesburg (or Oloh if you must be particular). Is Dan the man joining you?

I don't even know how to respond . . . simply amazing!!

You just can't leave those crazy church workers alone for a minute! Unbelievable!

Haley, I'm not sure if this will be a diappointment or a relief, but after checking the church sign generator I see this sign is design #5.

And when we are analyzing bad public grammar I enjoy that dropit is now one word instead of two.

How about the fact that "altar" is misspelled??!!
