After 130 FIMM episodes, the FIMM Archives were getting too long even to include links to all of them here!  Our new eBook, "FIMMology 101: The Humorous Sins of our Mouths" contains the BEST of Foot in Mouth Man episodes, but here are a few of FIMM's past episodes for your reading pleasure:

Episode 84: The Legend of Foot in Mouth Man

FIMM was born Franklyn Ignacious McMillner Possible on a bloggy September day in the year of our Lord 1952.  Very soon his parents noticed that FIMM was different.  Instead of sucking his thumb, he preferred his foot.  While other parents were finding little pet names for their children, FIMM's parents called him their little Foot in Mouth Man!  FIMM for short.

FIMM was a sweet child but he had difficulty expressing himself.  When at 13-months-old FIMM pointed to his mouth, his parents mistakenly thought he was hungry.  It took them several years to figure out that, to FIMM, this meant that he wanted his toy car.

As he grew older, his communication skills didn't improve very much.  FIMM had trouble finding FIMMployment!  He had difficulty with customers.  He had trouble giving directions!  FIMM had an enormous amount of problems dating!   Even when he met the girl of his dreams, he had some problems popping the question!  Poor Bonnie felt the pain of some engagement ring black and blues!  Though he was on fire for Jesus, FIMM made some church blunders!  And, though he means well, FIMM knows that he sometimes appears to be "agrumenterary".  FIMM has not been very successful in business.  His attempts at marketing a second income have been met with some difficulty.  Even little things like leaving a note for the repairman have caused FIMM a great deal of misunderstanding.

But as God often does, He uses FIMM's unfortunate and complete lack of effective communication skills in order to entertain and educate the rest of us.  FIMM actually takes great pride in being used in this way to further the cause of effective communication that was previously relegated to the dull and boring text books.  It gives FIMM great joy to know that he has been responsible for helping the Christian community to come to realize that effective communication isn't just for politicians and lawyers!  It is something that touches every aspect of our lives.

The legend of Foot in Mouth Man is a comical reminder to all of just how important communication skills can be in all areas of life.  FIMM's prayer is for you all to learn from his mistakes.

Now that you know the secret lessons of the legend of FIMM...don't be like himm!

Episode 74: Argumenterary
 
FIMM was trying to purchase some things for the baby to surprise Bonnie.  He asked the salesman a bit about the infant bedding but he didn't understand what the padding with the little ties was for.  The salesman was trying to explain but there was a lot of noise in the store.  After trying to talk over the other customers, the salesman was getting a bit frustrated.  The salesman asked FIMM if he understood what he said.

FIMM:  Well, not really.  You are a bit argumenterary and are not pronunciating your words. 

Episode 80: Christmas Checks!

FIMM was so busy and he really didn't know what to get many of his relatives for Christmas anyway.  So he decided to send them what he thought was a very generous check instead of buying a gift.  He carefully wrote the notes on the cards: "Buy your own present!"

At the family gathering he noticed that nobody said thank you for their gifts.  He was feeling quite upset with his relatives until he happened by his desk and saw all of the checks still sitting there!

Episode 94: Birth Announcement

FIMM and Bonnie have been keeping a secret!  Not only from you, their fans, but also from their family.  Thought you might like to see the birth announcement.
