The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 14, 2022

“what a friend we have in Nessie…”

i have had that nightmare of opening the church and no one coming…sorry about that Loch Ness Minister!

It’s a Lochout.

They came. But Nessie thought it was a buffet.

No one showed because they didn’t want to get kilt.

His sermon was watered down anyway…

Today’s comic is all wet!

I don’t know — lakeside services sound kind of fun. But pews? I’d go more for blankets.

Do a webcast with a cat….

I believe this is a myth. I don’t think anyone has really ever seen this minister. Show me some real evidence that he really exists.

the minister mistakenly thought that ness would be more…

That’s a lot of holy water.

Was this service really Nessiesary.

Correction here, there are no ‘lakes’ in Scotland Scott.

I don’t think I’d want to be baptized in THAT water!! :)

But we have a lot of blurry pictures to show for it. Talk radio here we come! Oh, and the book is available at (usual list )

I sort of remember that passage from Luke, when Simon Peter said “we worked hard all night and didn’t catch Nessie or anything."

Oh, the parishioners are there, all right. But getting a confirmed sighting is damned difficult!

Many miles away

There’s a sermon on the floor

Of a parish on the shore

Of a dark

Scottish laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake

Shouldn’t have advertised the baptism after the service.

Good Ness Gracious

Perish the thought!

I don’t know why they wouldn’t come. It’d be a delightful place to be, if you could just zone out the preacher.
