Corny's Back in Town

There was muted excitement at the “Good to the Last Slop Coffee Bar and Wait Watchers Clinic.”

“Well, I see that Conrad Cornelius is back in town,” observed Pastor Patty, to no one in particular, since no one will sit with her since that Christmas eve sermon on birth control.

“Yeah, old Corny’s probably ready for a rest, just finishing his busy season,” responded Elder Bassett “Hound” Berry from the next table. Elder Berry is a Baptist, so wasn’t at Pastor Patty’s Christmas eve service.

“I hear people call him ‘Corny’ all the time,” said Pastor Patty. “I guess ‘Corny’ is short for Cornelius, eh?”

“No,” said Elder Berry. “He writes dialog for the bowl game parade commentators and coach interviews.”
