Fun With the Bible: Part I

This scripture is for the times that you just ate at "La Tormenta"--a real restaurant, by the way--and your GI tract knows just how far away home is. Read with care:

Jeremiah 4:19-21 King James Edition

My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart maketh a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because thou hast heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war. Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment. How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet?


(He bows before his audience),
Hope it isn't prophetic

Heh-heh. Though art funneh, sayest The Grunt.

Survey: Who here has ever had to go so bad that both their tent and curtains got spoiled?
