HARD TIMES IN THE PASTORAGE
Tommy Tester and Sandy Cook








The Rev. Tommy Tester has slipped away from his Christian roots and reverted to a more primitive stage.

Until this week, a Christian broadcaster, and Pastor of a Bristol Tenn. Baptist Church, he has now been arrested on a variety of charges which will not add luster to his celestial crown when he appears before the Supreme Judge of the World on the Great Day of Reckoning.

For one thing, he pissed in public while youngsters were watching. Well, who hasn't had to take a whizz on the spur of the moment and suffered from a lack of toiletry? But doing it in a wash bay at a Tennessee car wash is frowned upon. He might at least have gone behind the building. But, when you're drunk, these things are sometimes let slide. Or, maybe it was the all those painkillers missing from the empty Oxycodone bottle in his car.

Tester was not dressed as a mister, but a mistress, yet his dress did not hide his gender, and the cops came. In Tennessee it is also considered poor form to offer to do oral sex on arresting officers, so this was added to the list of social grievances against him.

The congregation is praying for his soul. Yes! CLICK

Meanwhile, across the border in West Virginia, Rev. Sandy Cook, Shrewsbury Church of God, was arrested for alleged sexual abuse of minors, and in Texas, Pastor Charles Flowers of the Christian Boot Camp at the Faith Outreach Center in San Antonio, was arrested for allegedly dragging a young sinner behind a van when she would not keep up with a group of runners.

Honorable mention: The drivers of Phoenix. (Thank God it doesn't snow in Phoenix.)
But, It rained!

They started running into each other. It became an epidemic. 15 separate collisions. The best one, or worst, according to your point of view, involved 27 vehicles. The freeways were closed. No one was killed. CLICK
