Treadmill

Appointment Calendar Warning

"Caution: Future dates are much closer than they appear."

 

Food For Thought

A man identifying himself as a Christian wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me I can't remember a single one of them. So I think I'm wasting my time ... and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all." This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher: "I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But for the life of me, I cannot recall what the menu was for a single one of those meals. I do know this: they all nourished me and gave me strength. If my wife had not given me those meals, I would be dead today." That pretty much ended the discussion.

Generation Gap

 

During one "generation gap" quarrel with his parents, young Michael cried, "I want excitement, adventure, money, and beautiful women. I'll never find it here at home, so I'm leaving. Don't try to stop me!"  With that, he headed toward the door. His father rose and followed close behind.  "Didn't you hear what I said? I don't want you to try to stop me."  "Who's trying to stop you?" replied his father. "If you wait a minute, I'll go with you."

Good point!

The Bus Trip

The little old lady seated herself right behind the bus driver. Every ten minutes or so she'd pipe up, "Have we reached Oriskany Falls yet, sonny?"  "No, lady, not yet. I'll let you know," he replied, time after time.  The hours passed, the old woman kept asking for Oriskany Falls, and finally the little town came into view. Sighing with relief, the driver slammed on the brakes, pulled over and called out, "This is where you get out, lady."  "Is this Oriskany Falls?"  "YES!" he bellowed. "Get out!"  "Oh, I'm going all the way to Albany, sonny," she explained sweetly. "It's just that my daughter told me that when we got this far, I should take my blood pressure pill."

Wedding

 

A five-year-old boy was in church with his parents, witnessing the wedding of a family friend.  "Mommy," he whispered, "why does the lady wear white?"  His mother smiled and whispered back, "Because she is very happy to be getting married."  The little boy thought for a moment, then replied, "So why does the man wear black?"

  Milking It
   
  A lady went into the grocery and asked for fifty gallons of milk. The clerk, amazed, asked her what she was going to do with that much milk. "I have a skin problem and the doctor prescribed a milk bath." The clerk asked, "Pasteurized?" "Oh, no," she replied, "just up to my chin."
   
  Yes!
   
  Worship brings all kinds of responses, as I observed in church recently. An elderly woman was standing with eyes closed and hands raised in prayer and praise. The three-year-old standing in the pew in front of her turned around and gave her a high-five!
   
  Wake Up Call
   
  One night at an economy motel, I ordered a 6 a.m. wake-up call. The next morning, I awoke before 6, but the phone did not ring until 6:30.  "Good morning," a young man said sheepishly. "This is your wake-up call." Annoyed, I let the hotel worker have it. "You were supposed to call me at 6!," I complained. "What if I had a million-dollar deal to close this morning, and your oversight made me miss out on it?"  "Well, sir," the desk clerk quickly replied, "if you had a million-dollar deal to close, you wouldn't be staying in this motel!"
   
  The Arrest
   
  A police recruit was asked during the exam, 'What would you do if you had to arrest your own mother?' He answered, 'Call for backup.'

He stood with his hands on his hips and said, . . .  "I'm not  free. I'm four."

The Low Down Deed

Our manager at the restaurant where I worked was a friendly, jovial man, but there was one subject you didn't dare discuss in front of him — his height, or rather, his lack of it. He was very short and apparently sensitive about the subject. One day he stormed through the kitchen doors and announced angrily, "Someone just picked my pocket!" Everyone was speechless, except for one waitress who couldn't help herself as she blurted out, "How could anyone stoop so low?"

God Is...

When my youngest son was three years old, he sat in my lap at Church. (We had a guest speaker this particular Sunday.) The guest speaker was in the middle of a very loud sermon when he bent over the podium and started yelling "God is eternal," "God is eternal," while banging his fist for emphasis. My son looked very serious for a moment and then as young children do, he exclaimed very loudly, "Momma I didn't know God was a turtle." Needless to say, he had three rows of pews cracking up in the middle of the poor speaker's sermon.

Music's Importance

I attend a small village church in rural PA. On any given Sunday, we may have six or seven faithful little ones who come with their parents for the whole church service. Pastor has a white bag which gets passed from child to child, making sure they get equal turns to put something in for him to talk about. Each Sunday, Pastor calls all the little children up to him and he opens the bag to find a "surprise" on which he bases his children's sermon. Last week, the bag went home with a little guy who spends many hours a week on church related activities. His parents and older brother are very active and so, in turn, is he. When Pastor opened the bag, there was a copy of Handel's Messiah which was very appropriate for Easter Sunday. Pastor and the children had a lively discussion going on about the joy and happiness that music brings to the service. As he closed the little talk, Pastor said, "Yes, music is a wonderful part of our service. What would church be like if there was none?" Without skipping a beat, the little boy who had brought the music said, "About a half an hour!" Needless to say, everyone exploded into laughter which lasted for minutes. Finally, Pastor said, "There is no way I can top that so let's have a little prayer before you return to your seats."

The Wedding Question

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, 'Why is the bride dressed in white?''

Practicing

 

Joe's wife liked to sing so she decided to join the church choir. From time to time she would practice while she was in the kitchen preparing dinner. Whenever she would start in on a song, Joe would head outside to the porch.  His wife, with hurt feelings, said, "What's the matter, Joe? Don't you like my singing?"  Joe replied, "Honey, I love your singing, but I just want to make sure the neighbors know I'm not beating you."

 

Today’s Thought

A physician once said: "The best medicine for humans is love."  Someone asked, "What if it doesn't work?"  He smiled and said: "Increase the dose."
