Little Johnny at Church

Week 1:

After Sunday school, the teacher releases the kids to go to church and reminds them, “You all know to be very nice and quiet in the church. And why is that?”

Little Johnny offers, “Miss, it’s so we won’t wake all those people sleeping.”

Week 2:

The Sunday school teacher asks Johnny, “Come now, Little Johnny, tell me the truth, do you say your prayers before eating?”

Little Johnny smiles proudly, “No Miss, there’s no need, my mom cooks really well.”

Week 3:

The Sunday school teacher asks Little Johnny, “Johnny, do you believe in the Devil?”

“No,” replies Little Johnny knowledgeably. “It’s just like with Santa Claus — I know it’s really my dad.”

Week 4:

“And that’s the story of Noah’s ark,” the Sunday school teacher says, closing her Bible. “Johnny, you have a question?”

“Yes,” replies Little Johnny, holding his calculator. “According to my calculations, raising the level of the oceans to 29,000 feet in forty days would require a 30-foot-per-hour rainfall, equivalent to the force of a fire hose. Wouldn’t the ark have been blown apart under those circumstances?”

The Sunday school teacher resigned before the next week.

Never ask your three-year-old brother to hold a tomato.

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD

Time may be a great healer, but it’s a lousy beautician.

It’s frustrating when you know all the answers but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

You’re getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.

When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you’re down there.

Growing up is mandatory; growing old is optional.
