Church Humor

A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is, to shake hands. He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.

The Pastor said to him, “You need to join the Army of the Lord!”

My friend replied, “I’m already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor.”

Pastor questioned, “How come I don’t see you except at Christmas and Easter?”

He whispered back, “I’m in the secret service.”

An atheist scientist came to God and said, “We’ve figured out how to make a man without you.”

God said, “OK, let me see you do it.”

So the atheist bent down to the ground and scooped up a handful. But God stopped him and said, “Oh, no you don’t. Get your own dirt!”

My wife is in the other room explaining to the cat that even though we are going to bed early, he (the cat) is welcome to stay up.

I saw a bumper sticker today that said, “I am a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal.”  Suddenly, I realized how many proctologists are on the roads….

My teacher told me not to worry about spelling, because in the future there will be autocorrect, and for that, I am eternally grapefruit.

A man goes to the cinema and is surprised to see a pig sitting in the seat next to him.

“What are you doing here?” he asked the pig.

“Well, I enjoyed the book”.

The wife pulled a little prank on me the other day.  She put all my stuff where I couldn’t find it.  She put my shoes in the shoe closet; put my jacket on a hanger, and my keys on the key-hook.

A teenage girl had been talking on the phone for about half an hour, and then she hung up.
“Wow!,” said her father, “That was short. You usually talk for two hours. What happened?”
“Wrong number,” replied the girl.

Remembrance/Veterans Day

No matter what you call it, this is a little reminder that today is Remembrance/Veterans Day.  Take two minutes at 11:00 AM to stand quietly and remember, respect and honor those in the Armed Services, past and present, who have given so much, so that we can have peace and security.

Take some time today – Hell, take all day if you want, and take a bit of time any other day, whenever it’s possible – to shake the hand of a veteran, or current Serviceman, elbow-bump, or otherwise COVID-acknowledge them.  Smile behind your mask, and say, “Thanks!”
