Very clever!  Love the "Brother" and "Sister" names.

Dear UUs -

I welcome your jihad to rid America of its right-wing extremism.  God knows, someone has to do it.  But just for the record, I ain't dressing like no friggin trout!

if I were to "join" the Jihad, I wouldn't need the name generator.......I'd be "Venerable Battle-axe of Plain-Speaking".

Should the "sharp tongue" I've been told I have be considered a 'weapon'?  And if "the pen is still mightier than the sword", do I get some brownie points for stuff I wrote while a working newspaperwoman?   Just musing . . .

I sang the Thanksgiving "hymn' for my hostess for Thanksgiving dinner Thursday.  The one to the tune of "Ode to Joy" with the UU words about the various vegetables and about gardening .   I did it to demonstrate to my Jewish friend that U-Us are, now and then, kind of . . . . well . . . . . QUAINT.  But when we sat down to table, she liked my suggestion of each person telling what he/she was thankful for.  (It may have begun a new family tradition for them.)

And I was only half-jesting when I told a small U-U fellowship group with which I'm associated that we ought to invite the community at large in for a  home-made pie and coffee some time, and tell 'em about how we don't want to wait for  "pie in the sky when you die", that we'd druther have pie Here and Now,  shared  with our neighbors.
