A young boy had just gotten his driving permit. He asked
his father, who was a minister, if they could discuss his use of the car. His
father 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, then we will talk about
it."
A month later the boy came back and again asked his
father if they could discuss his use of the car. His father said, "Son,
I'm 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. I've read in the bible that Samson had long
hair, Moses had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long
hair."
His father replied, "Yes son, and if you read on
further you'll find out that they walked everywhere they went!"

Out in space, two alien forms are speaking with each
other.
The first spaceman says, "The dominant life formed
on the earth planet have developed satellite based weapons."
The second alien, who looks exactly like the first, and
asks, "Are they an emerging intelligence?"
The first spaceman says, "I don't think so. They
have them aimed at themselves."

A Sunday School teacher was telling the story of the Good
Samaritan to her class of 4 & 5 year-olds. She was making it as vivid as
possible to keep the children interested in her tale.
Then she asked the class, "If you saw a person lying
on the roadside all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?"
A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence,
"I think I'd throw up."

Becky prepared a pasta dish for a dinner party she was
giving. In her haste, however, she forgot to refrigerate the spaghetti sauce,
and it sat on the counter all day. She was worried about spoilage, but it was
too late to cook up another batch. She called the local Poison Control Center and
voiced her concern. They advised Becky to boil the sauce again.
That night, the phone rang during dinner, and one of the
guests volunteered to answer it. Becky's face dropped as the guest called out,
"It's the Poison Control Center. They want to know how the spaghetti sauce
turned out."
