Little Blessings Presents . . .

googleville
By the Cabin 3 Girls.  A skit about not following the crowd.

Narrator: "Once in the land of Googleville, lived a bunch of googles.  I present to you Google #1, Google #2, Google #3, Google #4, Google #5, and most importantly, the Google of all googles, 'The Google!'" 

All the googles are standing in a line, perfectly straight, the head google comes out on stage, stands in front of all the googles, facing the audience, and puts her hands on her hips.  All the rest of the googles put their hands on their hips, and do whatever else the head google is doing.

Narrator: "Though all the googles considered themselves to be "individuals" and though they all thought of themselves as "their own person", they thought that in order to be happy they had to do whatever "The Google" was doing.  For example, one day "The Google" came out wearing socks on her ears, sucking on a blue pen, and humming a google tune.  Sure enough all of the other googles followed wearing socks on their ears, sucking on blue pens and dancing to a google tune."

They hum a little catchy tune, and follow whatever kind of march the head google is doing.  The whole time looking absolutely ridiculous!  All googles exit stage.

Narrator: "The next day "The Google" came out drinking a nice cool glass of fabric softener, on ice of course!"

The head google pretends to drink a glass of fabric softener.  Chokes and gags continuously, but the whole time giving the thumbs up and proclaiming how wonderful it is.

Narrator: "And sure enough, all the other googles drank the fabric softener."

Googles enter one by one, each trying a glass of fabric softener, they too choke and gag, but look at each other and proclaim how wonderful it tastes.  All googles exit, following the head google.

Narrator: "One day a Bugle arrived.  She was a different kind of Google; she didn't wear socks on her ears, suck on blue pens, or listen to the google tune, and she didn't drink fabric softener!  All the googles said:"

Head Google:  "You're weird!"
All Googles: "You're weird!"

The googles one by one leave with their noses in the air, each saying "Tisk" on the way out.

Narrator: "But as the days went by, all the googles began to wonder.  How could this Bugle be so happy?" 

Head Google: "How come you are so happy?  We all know that you can't be happy unless you wear socks on your ears, suck on blue pens, and drink fabric softener."

Bugle: "I have Jesus in my heart.  He is the one who makes me happy.  I don't have to do all the silly stuff that you all do to be happy, it will never satisfy."

Head Google: "OoooKaaaay!" 

Head Google rolls eyes and walks away.  All the other Googles do the same thing, except one who stays behind with the Bugle.

Google who stayed behind: (to Bugle) "You are right, I don't need to do all that stuff.  I am missing something, I want to know Jesus, can you tell me how I can?"
