So I have been raised in the church since I was a wee lil' scamp of a kid. Actually since before I was born. My mom dragged my ass to church just by goin there herself with me growing all sorts of limbs inside her belly. Anywho... As time went on I don't think a single year went by without some guy in the church proclaiming it to be a (something or other year).
Like 1993 the year of multiplication, 1996 the year of Gods favor, 2005 the FIVE ALIVE YEAR! stuff like that. Catchier the better, and if there was some lady in the pews that made a "(That's Deep) mmm" sound It was probably prophetic.
Here are some I have been tinkering with...
DUN DUN DUN
thunder in the back
1. 2008 the year of the New York Yankees- why not another one? It's been a while.
2. 2008 the year Yams- ...?
3. 2008 the year the Church grows up- It could happen
4. 2008 the year Joe Leone grows up- HAHAHA! maybe not...
5. 2008 the year of 2008- I vote this one!
6. 2008 the year of Fate- It rhymes and it's guaranteed a "(that's deep) mmm" from some lady.
I know someone will do it. Keep your ears open
7. 2008 just another @*$&@!$ year- I couldn't imagine using it in a sermon...you'd get some different "mmm's"
8. 2008 the year of fire and brimstone and locust and all that other bad stuff that'll happen if your tithe is under 10%- I hope not this one.
9. 2008 the year of that makes up for 2007- I don't know about you folks but it's been a hard year I really was hopen and believing for some hardcore good time's as a follower of Jesus . However it is hands down with out question, the Worst of Joejoe's life. I really hope I'm wrong about this one. I hope that I don't have to wait for 2008 to justify the injustice of this year.
Peace out to my Fellow chums!!

What was the best year of your life like? Just curious. Hang in there prophetic guy, we'll see you in a couple of weeks.
#7 and #9 are my favorites
Hey Joey-Joe!! Well - you left me in tears laughing again kiddo. I am so glad you did not loose your sense of humor through this hard year of your life, which, as your Mom I can tell you was not the worst year of your life, just the hardest. There is a big difference. It is commonly said that the first year of marriage is the toughest. I don't know if that's true or not but in your's and Beth's case you did something extraordinary. You were brave enough to move across country away from your friends and family (in Mikey's case your best friend and brother) and head off with your bride into the unknown. Bravo for you. That alone, even if everything went well, is enough to cause saddness and a bit of hardship. So no more "worst year" mentality - "Hard year" mentality. OK. Meanwhile - keep us laughin'. I am so waiting for the 2008 year of fate! It's gonna happen!!!!!
I was giggling until the last one. A bit serious now. I read through the other comments (how do you spell voyeur?) and saw what Mom said. I was an absolute basket case my first year of marriage and I was in love then (jk still in love. Hi Honey! Glad you like the same blogs!). Hang in there, do the leaving and cleaving thing with your wife, tell her she is beautiful, your dream come true, and never give her advice about being a help meet
(ask a friend to do it). Also remember that there are Christians out here in Blogland that want to read your work, who care about you and your life, and who will be honored to lift you up in prayer! -Jennifer
