Jeff Brooks is on the Bad List

The other day Jeff Brooks, our High School youth minister, was shaving and cut into his goatee and mustaches. He decided to shave it all off and start over. No problem, right? Wrong, the contract he signed allows no facial hair changes this close to VBS, he's King Neb. Well, half of Jeff's personality is that facial hair... but I didn't really worry about that.

Then! Yesterday a teenager was showing off his cutco high pressure sales tactics and Jeff picked up a knife. The teen said, be careful, but Jeff proceeded to sharpen a pencil with the knife, as he'd seen in a demonstration. But in the demo the knife moved away from the hand and in Jeff's version he moved toward his... THUMB! Blood squirting, wife gasping, Trey laughing. He goes to Prima Care and gets 7 stitches! The real shame is that the knife he used was not for meat but for cutting vegetable, but hey, that's Cutco Quality!

So Jeff calls and says, "How do you feel about Neb is a big white gauzy thumb." So now I guess we'll give him a big white glove or something. King Neb is awaiting the Jackson verdict now as well.

Maybe King Neb can do the Roman Colliseum thing where his big, gauzy thumb will indicate "death" or "freedom".
"Daniel goes to the Lion's Den!"
*big, gauzy thumb down...*
