Some of these covers are truly hideous. I must admit that #7 perplexed me the most. I also thought, on first glance, that the poor woman gracing the cover of the book about heaven was a demon. I did chuckle at the sight of the Don Johnson-like priest and the Narnia-like mail order bride.

I have never understood the Christian enthrallment with The Amish. Is it the clothes? The hats? The buggies? The horses? The barn-raising? The food?

(The food actually is a good reason. Stop by Bird-in-Hand, PA sometime.)

Excellent post, Mr. Peet. I still have tears in my eyes from the laughter — and the words “…IN SPACE” reverberating endlessly in my brain!

I had no idea Wierd Al was still “singing”.

Why is it that my voice always seems to be loudest when I am saying the dumbest things?

I also do not get the plethora of bonnet books out there. I’m assuming the message is supposed to be that a woman can be virtuous and plain and still get a man.

I figured that out when I watched “Witness”.
