HOLY HUMOUR
LONG HAIR WALKS.
A young boy had just gotten his driving permit.
He asked his father, who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the car.
His father took him to his study and said to him, “I’ll make a deal with you.
You bring your grades up, study your Bible a little and get your hair cut and we’ll talk about it.”
After about a month the boy came back and again asked his father if they could discuss use of the car.
They again went to the father’s study where his father said, “Son, I’ve been real proud of you. You have brought your grades up, you’ve studied your Bible diligently, but you didn’t get your hair cut!”
The young man waited a moment and replied, “You know Dad, I’ve been thinking about that. You know, Samson had long hair, Moses had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long hair….”
To which his father replied, “Yes, and they walked everywhere they went!”
BABY SITTER
A Sunday School teacher asked her class why Joseph and Mary took Jesus with them to Jerusalem.
A small child replied: “They couldn’t get a baby sitter.”
WRITE ON DAD!
Three boys are in the school yard bragging about their fathers.
The first boy says, “My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a poem. They give him N2000.”
The second boy says, “That’s nothing. My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a song. They give him N40,000.”
The third boy says, “I got you both beat. My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a sermon, and it takes eight people to collect all the money!”
THE SUNDAY JOKE
Biggest lie.
A clergyman was walking down the street when he came upon a group of about a dozen boys, all of them between 10 and 12 years of age.
The group surrounded a dog.
Concerned lest the boys were hurting the dog, the clergyman went over and asked “What are you doing with that dog?”
One of the boys replied, “This dog is just an old neighborhood stray. We all want him, but only one of us can take him home. So we’ve decided that whichever one of us can tell the biggest lie will get to keep the dog.”
Of course, the reverend was taken aback.
“You boys shouldn’t be having a contest telling lies!” he exclaimed.
He then launched into a ten-minute sermon against lying,
beginning, “Don’t you boys know it’s a sin to lie,” and ending with, “Why, when I was your age, I never told a lie.”
There was dead silence for about a minute.
Just as the reverend was beginning to think he’d gotten through to them, the smallest boy gave a deep sigh and said,
“Oh…All right, he won…give him the dog.”
