Leaving Minnesota for Colorado, I decide to make a stop at one of those rest areas on the side of the road. I go in the washroom. The first stall was taken so I went in the second stall. I just sat down when I hear a voice from the next stall… Hi there, how is it going? Okay, I am not the type to strike conversations with strangers in washrooms on the side of the road. I didnt know what to say so finally I say: Not bad… Then the voice says: So, what are you doing? I am starting to find that a bit weird, but I say: Well, Im going back to Colorado… Then I hear the person say all flustered: Look Ill call you back, every time I ask you a question this idiot in the next stall keeps answering me.
A lady is having a bad day at the roulette tables in Vegas. Shes
down to her last $50. Exasperated, she exclaims, What rotten luck!
What in the world should I do now? A man standing next to her,
trying to calm her down, suggests, I dont know… why dont you
play your age?
He walks away. Moments later, his attention is grabbed by a great
commotion at the roulette table. Maybe she won! He rushes back
to the table and pushes his way through the crowd. The lady is lying
limp on the floor, with the table operator kneeling over her.
The man is stunned. He asks, What happened? Is she all right?
The operator replies, I dont know. She put all her money on 29,
and 36 came up. Then she just fainted!

In the beginning,
God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach, green
and yellow vegetable of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and
healthy lives.
And Satan created McDonalds. And McDonalds brought forth the double-cheeseburger.
And Satan said to Man, "You want fries with that?"
And Man said, "Super size them." And Man gained pounds.
And God created the healthful yogurt, that woman might keep her figure
that man found so fair.
And Satan brought forth chocolate. And woman gained pounds.
And God said, "Try my crispy fresh salad."
And Satan brought forth ice cream. And woman gained pounds.
And God said, "I have sent your heart healthy vegetables and olive
oil with which to cook them."
And Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own
platter. And Man gained pounds and his bad cholesterol went through the
roof.
And God brought forth running shoes and Man resolved to lose those extra
pounds.
And Satan brought forth cable TV with remote control so Man would not
have to toil to change channels.
And Man gained pounds.
And God said, "Youre running up the score, Devil."
And God brought forth the potato, a vegetable naturally low in fat and
brimming with nutrition.
And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy centre
into crisps and deep-fat fried them. And he created sour cream dip also.And
Man clutched his remote control and ate the crisps swaddled in cholesterol.
And Satan saw and said, "It is good."
And Man went into cardiac arrest.
And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

There was this preacher who was an avid golfer. Every chance he could get, he could be found on the golf course swinging away. It was an obsession. One Sunday was a picture perfect day for golfing. The sun was out, no clouds in the sky, and the temperature was just right. The preacher was in a quandary as to what to do, and shortly, the urge to play golf overcame him. He called an assistant to tell him that he was sick and could not do church, packed the car up, and drove three hours to a golf course where no one would recognize him. Happily, he began to play the course.
An angel up above was watching the preacher and was quite perturbed. He went to God and said, Look at the preacher. He should be punished for what he is doing. God nodded in agreement.
The preacher teed up on the first hole. He swung at the ball, and it sailed effortlessly through the air and landed right in the cup three hundred and fifty yards away (as they say in basketball, nothing but net). A picture perfect hole-in-one. He was amazed and excited.
The angel was a little shocked. He turned to God and said, Begging Your pardon, but I thought you were going to punish him.
God smiled. Think about it — who can he tell?
Youre so poor that you put a Happy Meal from McDonalds on Lay-A-way.
A little old lady sold pretzels on a street corner for 25 cents each. Every day a young man would leave his office building at lunch time. As he passed her pretzel stand, he would leave her a quarter, but would never take a pretzel.
This went on for more than five years. The two of them never spoke. One day as the young man passed the old ladies pretzel stand and left his quarter as usual, the pretzel woman spoke to him: Sir, I appreciate your business. You are a good customer, but I have to let you know that the price of pretzels has increased to 35 cents.
