We have this little simple souled fella who has his little tray and cash box selling mints before every service to benefit the "sound ministry". He sold out early and often when he had the bright idea to sell foam earplugs.
The pastor got pretty TO'd and told him to stop.
People just use tissue paper now instead, or they just bring their own.
Funny, the PW can sing and yell and shout as loud as she wants jamming her thumb in the air to the fellas in the back, and the big guy doesn't do anything, but when the preacher gets up there, he is very concerned and tells the sound guys to turn it down.
I am in favor of turning it off completely when a woman takes hold of a microphone.
