Back to my sport theme.

You’re right Tim save FOOTBALL for the World Cup in a couple of months.

BTW. Mark Schwarzer is the socceroos goalie! So it would be ‘Jesus Saves even better than Schwarzer’… pretty cute considering it was his penalty saves against Uruguay that got the socceroos into the World Cup.

Perhaps developed further.. “On the Penalty spot Jesus saves even better than Schwarzer”

Anyway the Commonwealth Games is almost open us. (1 week to go). Any thoughts....
* the Aussie swim team without Hackett.
* The Queen in Sydney (I think?)

Picking up Gordon’s ‘nut’ theme…

Warning: Sermon-free Sundays are a health hazard

..Works on two levels.. without Christ you go to hell and well-being research proves ‘religion’ is good for you! ;)

That’s it! I was racking my brain trying to remember. And didn’t we have the chant “Mark Schwarzer...walks on water!” or some such?

If so there’s got to be a follow-up. Thinking caps on, forum dwellers!

What about one for Easter, taking into consideration that our local musical society is putting on Jesus Christ, Superstar?

[Might recommend it to our Presbyterian friends, who have a noticeboard in the centre of Bathurst shopping centre.]

OK for the ‘Queen’ concept I need you guys and gals to help with a bit more development.

This is what I’ve got so far.

See your Queen in Sydney, Sat. Meet your King here, Sun.

Hey Jeremy, the other angle on the Queen is that the powers that be decreed “God Save the Queen” will not be sung, despite her being there.

I’m sure you’ll come up with something, though the ‘meet the Queen on Sat’ one is excellent.

I was hoping that Tim was going to have to think about this for himself! :O

Funny.

You wouldn’t credit it.

A random woman named Helena from Lilyfield just rang me to say “I love your signs”.  She even said that she looks forward to getting on the bus so she can see what we have up. 

Five minutes after my last post on church signs?!?!?

And, I reckon they are pretty lame to some of the ones you are coming up with.

BTW Andrew - why think for myself when you guys are doing such a great job?

Gordo - we can’t do pictures dude.

Mr Foster informed us

Who is trying to censor us this time?

* Sydney FC in the football grand final.. your in soccer-mad leichhardt after all!

I was trying to think of something witty around the initials FC… I haven’t got past ‘for Christ’ which is pretty dud.

My thoughts require the extra initial between the F and the C...something like Find (your/the) Creator, or Finds Christianity. Plus I can’t find my thesaurus at the moment, so obscure jargon isn’t on the way.

By the way, the Jesus Saves one reminds me of something I read on a site listing different phrases on bumper stickers - “Jesus Saves...passes to Moses, shoots, scores!”

That’s a real shame. The skeleton logo would be way cool. Could you use a real skeleton and hang it up (like, a med student plastic skeleton)

I guess it would probably get nicked in 5 minutes. But that would probably make Column 8 if someone e-mailed in about it, so it would be worth it for that exposure, and you could put a reward notice in the local paper and get publicity that way too.

Maybe a garden gnome could be part of a series. You can get them from Bunnings for $2 a pop. Hang it from a noose, with the message

Jesus shows how to cheat death

or similar
