We used to call that kicking in the after burners. Lol!Something funny today, my son met a man after Mass who played some very high level college football. This fellow told Joe to work on speed if he wanted to obtain his goal of playing wide receiver (right now he's a center and defensive end...football leagues for young kids have weight limits for ball carriers).
So he asked me for help in speed training and I got to tell him and his younger brother about an effective speed workout I use that is referred to by the (Swedish, I believe ) word for 'speed play'....the fartlek. Watching them laugh, at first not believing that was a thing, then figure out how they could add the word fart to other exercises, made for an amusing ride home.
Hope this doesn't offend anyone (I don't see why it would, but in this day and age........). Besides my priest told it.
The people ask Jesus what to do about the prostitute...
Jesus says "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
There's a brief silence.
Then, suddenly, a huge boulder comes crashing down on the prostitute!
Jesus looks up on the hill, and frowning with disgust, goes
"Mother, I thought I told you to stay home"
