A Man goes to Church

Murphy showed up at Mass one Sunday and the priest almost fell down 
When he saw him. He had never been to church in his life.
 
 
 
After Mass, the priest caught up with him and said, "Murphy, I am so 
Glad ya decided to come to Mass. What made ya come?"
 
Murphy said, "I got to be honest with you Father. A while back, 
I misplaced me hat and I really, really love that hat. I know that 
McGlynn had a hat just like mine and I knew he came to church every 
Sunday. I also knew that he had to take off his hat during Mass and 
Figured he would leave it in the back of church. So, I was going to 
Leave after Communion and steal McGlynn's hat."
 
The priest said, "Well, Murphy, I notice that ya didn't steal 
McGlynn's hat. What changed your mind?"
 
Murphy replied, "Well, after I heard your sermon on the 10 
Commandments, I decided that I didn't need to steal McGlynn's hat after all."
 
With a tear in his eye the priest gave Murphy a big smile and said; 
"After I talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Steal 'ya decided you would 
Rather do without your hat than burn in Hell?"
 
Murphy slowly shook his head. "No, Father, after ya talked about 
'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery', I remembered where I left me hat."

The Little White Lie

Alice   Grayson was to   bake a   cake for the  Baptist   Church Ladies' Group in Tuscaloosa, but forgot to do   it until the last minute.   She   remembered it the morning   of the   bake sale and after  rummaging   through cabinets, found an angel food cake mix   &  quickly   made it while drying her hair, dressing, and helping   her son pack for scout camp.     When she   took the cake from the oven, the center had dropped   flat And  the cake   was horribly  disfigured and she   exclaimed, "Oh dear,   there is  not time   to bake another cake!"   So, being   inventive, she looked around the   house   for   something to build up the center of the   cake. ...

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do.     Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.     He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazem e nt he quieted down.     A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. he would shake it off and take a step up.     As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would s...

Thank You Teachers!

In honor of Teachers everywhere - Teachers never know what they might have to do for their kids. A group of 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, accompanied by two female teachers, went on a field trip to the local racetrack, (Churchill Downs) to learn about thoroughbred horses and the supporting industry (Bourbon), but mostly to see the horses. When it was time to take the children to the bathroom, it was decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the boys would go with the other. The  teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the men's room when one of the boys came out and told her that none of them could reach the urinal. Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with their pants, and began hoisting the little boys up one by one, holding on to their 'wee-wees' to direct the flow away from their clothes. As she lifted one little guy, she couldn't help but notice that he was unusually well endowed. Trying not to sh...
