    Bible Salesman
    A pastor concluded that his church was getting into very serious financial troubles. While checking the church storeroom, he discovered several cartons of new bibles that had never been opened and distributed.
    So at his Sunday sermon, he asked for three volunteers from the congregation who would be willing to sell the bibles door-to-door for $10 each to raise the desperately needed money for the church.
    Jack, Paul and Louie all raised their hands to volunteer for the task.
    The minister knew that Jack and Paul earned their living as salesmen and were likely capable of selling some bibles. But he had serious doubts about Louie who was a local farmer, who had always kept to himself because he was embarrassed by his speech impediment. Poor Louie stuttered badly, but not wanting to discourage Louie, the minister decided to let him try anyway.
    He sent the three of them away with the back seat of their cars stacked with bibles. He asked them to meet with him and report the results of their door-to-door selling efforts the following Sunday.
    Anxious to find out how successful they were, the minister immediately asked Jack, "Well, Jack, how did you make out selling our bibles last week?"
    Proudly handing the reverend an envelope, Jack replied, "Using my sales prowess, I was able to sell 20 bibles, and here's the $200 I collected on behalf of the church."
    "Fine job, Jack!" The minister said, vigorously! Shaking his hand. "You are indeed a fine salesman and the Church is indebted to you."
    Turning to Paul, "And Paul, how many bibles did you sell for the Church last week?"
    Paul, smiling and sticking out his chest, confidently replied, "I am a professional salesman. I sold 28 bibles on behalf of the church, and here's $280 I collected."
    The minister responded, "That's absolutely splendid, Paul. You are truly a professional salesman and the church is indebted to you."
    Apprehensively, the minister turned to Louie and said, "And Louie, did you manage to sell any bibles last week?" Louie silently offered the minister a large envelope.
    The minister opened it and counted the contents. "What is this?" the minister exclaimed. "Louie, there's $3200 in here! Are you suggesting that you sold 320 bibles for the church, door to door, in just one week?"
    Louie just nodded. That's impossible!" both Jack and Paul said in unison. "We are professional salesmen, yet you claim to have sold 10 times as many bibles as we could."
    "Yes, this does seem unlikely," the minister agreed. "I think you'd better explain how you managed to accomplish this, Louie."
    Louie shrugged. "I-I-I re-re-really do-do-don't kn-kn-know f-f-f-for sh-sh-sh-sure," he stammered. Impatiently, Peter interrupted. "For crying out loud, Louie, just tell us what you said to them when they answered the door!"
    "A-a-a-all I-I-I s-s-said wa-wa-was," Louie replied, "W-w-w-w-would y-y-y-you l-l-l-l-l-like t-t-to b-b-b-buy th-th-th-this b-b-b-b-bible f-f-for t-t-ten b-b-bucks o-o-o-or wo-wo-would yo-you j-j-j-just l-like m-m-me t-t-to st-st-stand h-h-here and r-r-r-r-r-read it t-to y-y-you??"

    RED SKELTON'S RECIPE FOR THE PERFECT MARRIAGE


    1. Two times a week, we go to a nice restaurant, have a little beverage, good food and companionship.
    She goes on Tuesdays, I go on Fridays.

    2. We also sleep in separate beds.
    Hers is in California and mine is in Texas .

    3. I take my wife everywhere.....
    but she keeps finding her way back.

    4. I asked my wife where she wanted to go for our
    anniversary. 'Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!' she said. So I suggested the kitchen.

    5. We always hold hands.
    If I let go, she shops.

    6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster and electric
    bread maker. She said 'There are too many gadgets and no place to sit down!' .. So I bought her an electric chair.

    7. My wife told me the car wasn't running well because
    there was water in the carburetor. I asked where the car was; she told me 'In the lake.'

    8. She got a mud pack and looked great for two days.
    Then the mud fell off.

    9. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling 'Am I too late
    for the garbage?' .... The driver said 'No, jump in!'

    10. Remember: Marriage is the number one cause of divorce..

    11. I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her
    first name was Always.

    12. I haven't spoken to my wife in 18 months.
    I don't like to interrupt her.

    13. The last fight was my fault though.
    My wife asked 'What's on the TV?'
    I said 'Dust!'

    Can't you just hear him say all of these?
    I love it..........this is the good old days
    when humor didn't have to start with a four letter word........ just clean and simple fun
