Stick to poisonous snakes, Reverend!

A preacher in Cullman, (a very special place ;) ), complained about the 'pornographic' pictures on men's underwear....and the Sheriff got involved....and WALMART withdrew the packaging.

No, sadly, I am not kidding.

Cullman Times

CULLMAN — A local pastor’s complaint about a brand of underwear being sold with “pornographic” pictures on the packaging at the Cullman Walmart reportedly led to a recall of the product.

Frank Boren, pastor of New Hope Christian Center Church of God in the Springhill community, said he noticed the questionable underwear package while shopping at the store in May.

“I was in there shopping for some underwear one day, and looked at the men’s pictures on the packaging,” he said. “On a few of the packages they were very pornographic in the way they were dressed, in skimpy underwear, so I went to the manager and asked her if she thought it was inappropriate to be displayed.”

Here are some suggestions for the good Reverend.

1. Get a life

2. Someone subscribe that man to Playgirl

3. Hold a drawer check at the door of the church on Sunday to make sure no sinners come in wearing those drawers.

4. Reckon Jesus's loin cloth gets the preacher all hot and bothered?

5. Stick to dancing with poisonous snakes Reverend....since trouser snakes so clearly offend you.

It's idiots like this who make Alabama such a hellish place to live.

There are no pictures of the offensive drawer package, unfortunately.

Hey Woman...'Swim Iss-a-way'!!

Alex City woman in hospital after jumping from River Bridge

The Alexander City Police Department is still investigating the circumstances surrounding a local woman who jumped off the River Bridge early Sunday morning.

"She dropped off the edge of the bridge into the Tallapoosa River below," said Lt. Randy Walters of the ACPD.

According to police reports, the department received a call from a concerned citizen between 1:14 and 1:19 a.m. Sunday that a woman was sitting alone on the edge of the River Bridge.

A passing motorist on the bridge noticed the woman, a 26-year-old female ... "on the edge dangling her feet," Walters said.

Several officers quickly arrived on the scene to assess the situation and attempt to talk the woman off the bridge if necessary. However, the officers never got the chance to speak with the woman.

"Upon arrival of law enforcement, the female jumped over the edge," Walters said. "They didn't have a chance to talk with her."


After they witnessed the woman's fall into the water, which Walters said was at least a 40-foot drop, officers rushed down to the edge of the river at the westbound side of the bridge. The officers then called to the woman and asked her to swim over to them.However, there was no response from the woman so two officers jumped into the river to come to her aid.

"Law enforcement swam out to the victim and pulled her to shore," Walters said.

Alexander City Fire Department EMS personnel were then called to the scene to assist with the victim. The woman was transported to Russell Medical Center. However, the woman required further treatment and was transported to UAB Hospital later that day.

The case is still under investigation.
