It’s not unusual

img_3606

“World’s Most Unusual Family”   Check out the “Families” section of Lp Cover Lover for more “unusual” families.   Only this family had the balls to claim the title.   Maybe they are all intermarried – that would be unusual.   Maybe they are like the Brady Bunch.   They seem to be divided down the middle, maybe half the family are Republicans and the other half Democrats (one of the guys is wearing a red tie and the other a blue one).

Nope.   According to the liner notes, they just pray and preach more than any other family.
