Last night Paul Bunyan was a big topic in our conversation. After a (somewhat) controversial sermon at Calvary, Christy, Mia, Brian B., and I all settled in at Dion's for food. Well, as always, we talked one another's heads off. Brian was supposed to be there for only about 25 min. because he had to drive to another city far away that night, but alas; we lost track of time. We ended up talking for close to two hours.
Brian wanted to talk to us about a book he had been reading on John Bunyan, the author of Pilgrim's Progress. I thought he said Paul Bunyan, the big lumberjack from tall tales with his blue ox. I began telling all of my table mates that there was a ride in the Mall of America in Minnesota with Paul Bunyan towering over it. Then Brian corrected me, "no, I meant John Bunyan, you know, the guy who wrote Pilgrim's Progress...". We all ended up in much laughter. So then he went on saying, "so as I was saying, I was reading a book about Paul Bunyan..." and we corrected him again. More laughter. I guess we all just wanted to talk about that manly lumberjack last night.
Oh, and Christy thought he said John Bunny, hahahahahahahaha. Christy, Christy, Christy, you are too funny.
All in all, I declare last night good, and so it was.
