Some Saturday Jokes For You

Story 1

High over the Alps, an airplane – carrying the pope, a famous soap – opera leading man, and a boy scout – caught on fire. The pilot, who was no hero, put on the first parachute he could find, told his passengers there were only two chutes left, and bailed out, leaving them short one parachute.

            “It pains me, but I must take one of the chutes,” said the actor. “People all over the world admire me, and millions of women adore me. I am the greatest actor in the world.” Just before jumping, he looked at the other two and intoned, “I must do this for my fans. Farewell!”

            Time was running out, so the pope said to the boy scout, “My child, I’ve had a good long life, and my faith tells me the next world will be a better place than this. You are young and have everything ahead of you. Take the remaining chute with my blessing.”

            “Not to worry, Your Holiness,” the boy said, “Mr. Vanity just bailed out with my knapsack on his back!” 

Story 2

Dad was giving Junior one of his Abe Lincoln lectures. “When he was your age, Lincoln walked seven miles to school – each way.”

            “Yes, sir. And when he was your age, he was President of the United States.” 

Story 3

            Just as the preacher was about to enter the pulpit, a woman in the congregation handed him a note requesting the congregation’s prayers for her husband. The note read: “Bill Adams having gone to sea, his wife desires the congregation’s prayers for his safety.”

            But the preacher was pressed for time and read the note a little too hastily, telling the congregation that, “Bill Adams, having gone to see his wife, desires the prayers of the congregation for his safety.”

Story 4

            The young seminarian was filling in for the church’s minister, a very popular preacher who had suddenly been taken ill. Although he was obviously nervous, the youth gave a respectable sermon, then concluded his prayers with a fervent, “And may Pastor Hale be filled full of fresh veal and new zigor!”

Story 5

            The wife had been talking for at least ten minutes before she looked over to where her husband was sitting, absorbed in the newspaper. “Why don’t you answer me?” she demanded.

            “I did,” he replied, turning a page.

            “No, you didn’t.”

            “I shook my head no.”

            “Oh, pardon me. I guess I didn’t hear the rattle.”

Inside My Heart - Robin Mcgraw

Just finished reading this book. It is written by Robin Mcgraw, the wife of Dr.Phillip Mcgraw. The book actually talks about the life-story of Robin herself. She basically shares the many important events in her life, her thoughts and feelings during the events that finally led to her reactions and choices at the time. As I read through the book, I couldn’t help but to be so emotional; one time I smiled, the other time I cried. In the first chapter, Robin pens “I am on a mission to get you excited about your life”, and I think that accomplished…well, at least for me. Her excitement is contagious. But overall, it is an easy read. I think I would recommend this book to all ladies.
