Linguistic Languor

I was ready to use my new KiKaonde phrase that I had memorized, a greeting in the Lord.  A visiting Kaonde evangelist was just the right audience.  After greeting him, he looked a bit angry.  Then he asked me, “Why did you greet me in the name of your dog?”  Obviously something had gone terribly amiss.“But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.”

Colossians 3:8  KJV

Skating too close to blasphemy on that one,

Brian, Sondra, Noah, & Bryson

Pictured:  Kambo = Lord; Kabwa = dog.  That’s important to know.
