Joel Osteen goes back to court

Oh no. What now?

I hope Victoria didn’t fly coach and a melee broke out when the peanuts were a little too salty. Maybe the Osteens pet poodle got a sperse overfluffed with the humidity back in the fuelisage baggage area. Thankfully, nothing like that.

No, televangelist fans. Joel got Jury Duty!

“It’s very ironic, and that’s what everybody’s kidding me about, saying ‘Haven’t you had enough of this place?’” Joel Osteen said.

Nice. Thanks to the story in the Houston Chronicle, we learn good ol’ Juror #35 was being interviewed for the panel to hear a caretaker accused of injuring a disabled person.

You know, many people accuse Joel of milquetoast ministry and pukey pablum, but at least he keeps it real.

Osteen said he was like the 59 other prospective jurors — happy to do his civic duty, but hoping he wasn’t selected. He wasn’t.

At least he admitted it. Maybe Joel slid over to the other side of the table to give the elderly lady his book, “Your Best Life Now.” In case she wins the law suit, I’m sure she’ll be interested in all that.
