While enjoying the nooning today I was out scavenging the forum for tidbits of wisdom, and I found this gem by honorary Canadian, BoredOutOfMyMind.

This post was not meant to be funny, but the sheer audacity of it tickled my funny bone. Without any reservations, I'm ready to confer honorary citizenship on this poster. (Anybody that can stack up three adjectives in front of "preachers" has got my vote.)

Futhermore, if all the UPC preachers that break the AS and have TV's in their homes would do what is right and NOT vote then there is no way this resolution would pass. It's sad the directionthe org is going. Just my thoughts (and the thoughts of a whole lot of other Godly men).

Is this a Canadian Word??

I would like to propose a new course for Bible School Students.

They are Internet savvy kids, there's no doubt about that.

They know how to use the Internet, but they could use some teaching on how not to use the Internet.

My concern is that they are, or will post things that will come back to haunt them later.

The second concern is that the "inside" glimpses into a Bible School student's life may hurt school funding.

Here is one video clip. I chose it because I don't think it is particularly negative. Matter of fact I found it hilarious. I think that the school would be well advised to invest in some mouth guards and headgear, but other than that, it's the first thing I've seen in years that made me wish that I was back in Bible School.

Nooning is an English word.

English is a language that was spoken in the USA, and that is still commonly spoken in commonwealth nations.

Here is a quote from one of your countrymen who wrote before the effects of your little rebellion against the Crown became as evident in the language as it is now.

"BETWEEN six and nine we made ten miles, which was plenty for a horse carrying triple -- man, woman, and armor; then we stopped for a long nooning under some trees by a limpid brook."

Mark Twain, from "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court"

I trust that this post was written in a sufficiently limpid style, and that it will be understood by the barbarians to the south.

Is that how they are teaching them to deal with their frustration now? the likes of this would never have gone on in the old UPBI.

You're right about that.

We didn't have gloves.

Really though, I wonder about the wisdom of posting this here where anybody can view it.

I agree it doesn't seem very wise but neither has some of the stuff I have seen posted on some facebook profiles.

Hey Genius.

What's going on? Has much "nooning" made you mad?

If you'll look down in the lower right corner, you'll see "Youtube."

It's already posted where anybody can see it.

How do you like this one?

The point isn't whether it's right or wrong. Good fun among students is great. The question is whether the students should be cautioned about putting this stuff out into the public domain where it could potentially affect their ministry futures, or cause problems for the school.
