From "News Quirks" compiled by Roland Sweet comes yet another story that just makes you shake your head in bewilderment.
The Rev. Kyle Luke was stepping into a small pool to baptize a new member at University Baptist Church in Waco, TX, when he reached to adjust a microphone so he could be heard. (Was Kyle impersonating Homer Simpson? Why why why why OH WHY??) It produced an electric shock, which electrocuted Luke in the waist-deep water. Ben Dudley, the church's community pastor, said, "Everyone just immediately started praying."
Yeah, I guess everyone was so busy talking to God about a dead pastor that nobody remembered to call the operator to ask, "What's the number for 911???"

I heard about this one! When I was baptized a few months ago I kept a close eye on the microphone! It was sitting a little close for comfort. Don't they teach Pastors that you aren't supposed to play with electric appliances in the water!
