Think about it,Thursday - The Dingleberry Story

Have you ever thought you knew a word's meaning or just thought it was a cutesy term and wanted to use it? Have you ever called your minister at church a dingleberry and then watched as he turned raspberry red and looked like a deer caught in the headlights?

Did you then, rush out to your car, grab your cell phone and Google it? And then, turn raspberry red and move on to blackberry purple and look like a deer caught in the headlights?

Just some random thoughts...it certainly NEVER happened to me. =)

  2. I had heard this term my whole life and didn't know the meaning either until I started get Word of the Day from dictionary.com! I had things like that not happen to me as well! :) Thanks for finding my blog, new follower of yours too! ~ Paula www.callmepmc.com pmctunejones@gmail.com

  4. This is too funny......I did tell my pastor that men with scrubby beards....ya know, not quite grown in and not shaven....make me instantly think they have bad breath. He would keep his scrubby beard for awhile after returning from a church missions trip. After I said that he is always clean shaven the Sunday after he returns!!
