Samson's parents
I laughed out loud when I read Judges 13:22-23 last night. Previous to these versus the angel of the lord comes to samson's parents (Manoah and wife) and gives them the instructions for the pregnancy and then that samson must be a Nazirite and the no head shavy thing. In vs. 21 they figure out it was an angel of the lord. (so he must have seemed kinda ordinary?). In v.22 Manoah gets a bit dramatic, saying now they were going to DIE because they had seen an Angel of the Lord. And in v.23 the wife tells him to get a grip, because the Angel wouldn't have given them all these instructions if they were just about to DIE.I thought it was incredibly funny because it seemed so realistic and a very real funny conversation.

Oh my gosh, that IS funny, I have never seen it that way before. What would men do without us women to set them straight and make sense out of life :)
