    I used to love break time. Especially if it was afternoon service, and we stopped at Taco Bell. I used to be damn good at eating tacos in the car without spilling anything. It was that one joyful moment of the day when you weren't stressed out or annoyed. My other favorite thing was when somone would start talking shit about somone else. I used to love when somone had a long ass call, and you were sitting around in the car with the congregation gossiper. It was always funny to listen to what they had to say. Then you realized they probably talked shit about you too. So what did you guys like best?

    Growing up we had some fun rural territory. A few of us bros had monster 4x4 trucks or broncos and we would volunteer to take on the "rough" roads. We had a divine excuse to go four-wheeling. Those were the days.

    Me and a buddy of mine did that out in service. We were way the hell back there on this old snowmobile trail, when we came face to face with a cop. We almost shit our pants when his lights came on. He asked us what we were doing, and we made up some lie about turning down the wrong road. It must have looked really funny as we sat there in our suits, listening to the cop yell at us. I'm sure the "service angels" that were with us were proud.

    Coffee breaks were always fun and getting to work in the same car group as some girl I was interested in flirting with was okay I guess. The congregation gossipers were also really funny, but I concur, they did talk shit about me behind my back as well.

    Did I mention Coffee Break? We were allowed $3; at the time, McD's had the #2 value meal for $2.99.... woo-hoo... we got to go out to lunch!

    Oh, the other thing I liked about service (or "The Ministry" as my grandmother called it).... 12:00 noon. Yep THE END IS COMING... the end of service!

    By the way, to all you who grew up Dubs.... there are cartoons on Saturday AM... did you know that?
