Cat in the Hat, Jesus Is My Savuer
FOUND by Magdaline
in a Central Presbyterian Church
I found this tithe envelope in a hymnal while attending my little sister's Christmas concert a couple years ago. I've held onto it ever since because I love the youthful stream of consciousness and the memories of daydreaming in church.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Doesn't say where the church was...if it were Quebec I'd think the child got stuck between languages. "Jesu est mon Sauveur."
When I was a lil sprout I used to think block-printing like this was cool, unaware that a child's handwriting is always hard for others to read and in block-print is almost impossible.
At that age I could never remember whether it was "Saviour" or "Savior". The good thing is that I still have the Jesus part straight.
Here in my neck of the woods, Jesus can either be the man from the Bible, or the name of my auto mechanic. As a matter of fact, he was my savior when my car broke down...oh, never mind.
Did you ever notice that you never see the Cat in the Hat and Jesus together in the same place?
Mmmmm, Jesus. Yummy.

The Pope is a cat with a pretty cool hat.
@ fooch ... And, thanks to you I'm thinking of that Die Hard movie where Bruce Willis and Samuel Jackson are talking [recalled from memory, since I'm being a bad librarian and not looking up the exact wording]:
SJ: Jesus? Why do you keep calling me Jesus?
BW: That's what those guys on the street called you.
SJ: No they didn't. They said "Hey, Zeus!" That's my name - Zeus.
Magdaline?
Librarian, I always loved the Samuel Jackson action flick where he is climbing stairs on the way to saving the day and he keeps muttering, "Work with me now, Jesus, work with me here, Lord..."
Having arrested Jesus, they led Jesus away and brought Jesus to the house of the high priest; but The Cat in the Hat was following at a distance. After they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, The Cat in the Hat was sitting among them. And Thing 1, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and looking intently at him, said,
“This Cat in the Hat was with Jesus too.” But he denied it, saying, “Thing 1, I do not know Him. I do not know him from this and that. I do not know him I'm just a cat” A little later, Thing 2 saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But The Cat in the Hat said,
“Man, I am not! Floobity Floo” After about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this Cat also was with Him, for he is a Whovillian who.” But The Cat in the Hat said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about. I it is not true what you tout. I am not with him I am not a lout.” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed - 1 Crow 2 Crow 3 Crow. The Lord turned and looked at The Cat in the Hat. And The Cat in the Hat remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.” And The Cat in the Hat went out and wept bitterly.
Hahaha! I never saw Die Hard, but I love it: "Hey Zeus!!" (Like Airplane: "Surely you must be kidding." "I am not kidding, and stop calling me Shirly.")
Okay, specifically, it is "Die Hard 3: Die Hard With a Vengeance".
And I went and looked up a transcript:
Zeus: Why do you keep calling me 'Jesus'? Do I look Puerto Rican to you?
John McClane: Guy back there called you 'Jesus'.
Zeus: He didn't say 'Jesus'. He said, "Hey, Zeus!" My name is Zeus.
John McClane: Zeus?
Zeus: Yeah, Zeus. As in father of Apollo? Mt. Olympus? Don't fuck with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass? Zeus! You got a problem with that?
Thing 1 and Thing 2 are MY saviors.
HPD: We need a recipe featuring cat (hat optional) and jesus.
@ Miss Scarlet in in the Study - No I really couldn't - I'm stuffed ..couldn't stand the thought of another bite...
HPD made my day.
p.s. Do you have a real job???
hpd is now my savior.
Fooch couldn't spell today
Jesus loves you!
Jose does, too.
Miguel just wants to get in your pants.
The sun did not shine.
It was too wet to play.
So we sat in the house
All that cold, cold, wet day.
But in three days
He arose again
And took away
All of our sin.
Willy.
Or do I just have a dirty, dirty mind?
