BEND, OR — According to sources, the Crawford family enjoyed a fine morning of Sunday worship and Bible teaching at church, only to suddenly forget everything as soon as they hit the parking lot.
"I just loved when the pastor said — you know . . . huh, I don't know what I was going to say," said Elle Crawford. "Anyway, who wants to go to Denny's?"
The Crawfords reportedly drove to the restaurant in awkward silence as they each struggled with what was apparently a form of amnesia.
"Dad, why can't we remember the sermon? What's happening to us?" asked little Charlie.
"Quiet, I'm trying to think!" said William Crawford. "It was something about sin. Yeah, it was about sin, right?"
Witnesses report the family became increasingly agitated as they looked over the Denny's menu, each lacking grace in dealing with the other. By the time the Moons Over My Hammy arrived, the family's remaining spiritual growth was exhausted.
At publishing time, William Crawford prepared for next Sunday by resolving to take sermon notes he would forget to refer back to when trying to discuss the sermon with his family.
