Flanders the Odd, a born-again Christian, was expecting a visit from a girl he had been fond of called ‘Jodi the Brown.’  In their years away from each other, at first he had thought her to be a devout Christian; then, later, as a backslidden Christian; but now, as a non-Christian.  He had a burden for this pretty cheerleader in brown and white. And when she came, and they chatted, he found that she was bitter at her old church.  He preached salvation to her, and she agreed to get right with God with her soul, and she was just about to pray and get saved.  Behold, the three main men of her old church suddenly came storming into Flanders’s apartment.  He had hidden Jodi the Brown.  And the three men trashed his apartment in their wild search for the woman.
