I've got one to add to the list (from a book of organ anecdotes).  Something along the lines of:  church order of service one Sunday, announced one of the hymns that week as "Our God Resigns"........!

Thank you for such a good giggle.  I now have one confused husband and one hen wondering why Mummy is wobbling because she's giggling so much ;)
