Christmas Laughs


Christmas Laughs

Good morning my fellow Rotarians. The Christmas season is well upon us and for our news this morning, I thought I’d share a few humorous Christmas stories…

Trust Him?
On the Sunday before Christmas Reverend Billy Graham was visiting a town where he was to give a Christmas message. That afternoon he went to visit a parishioner; however, he needed to drop a package off and asked a young boy where he could find the post office. When the boy gave him directions, Reverend Graham thanked him and said, 'If you'll come to the Church this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to heaven.'

The boy replied, 'I think I'll pass sir. If you don't even know your way to the post office, how do you know the way to heaven?'

Christmas Spirit
It was just before Christmas and the magistrate was in a happy mood. He asked the prisoner who was in the dock, 'What are you charged with?' The prisoner replied, 'Doing my Christmas shopping too early.' 'That's no crime', said the magistrate. 'Just how early were you doing this shopping?'

'Before the shop opened', answered the prisoner.

On Christmas Eve, Nathan thought it would be nice to buy his wife a little gift for the next day. Always short of money, he thought long and hard about what to buy.' Unable to decide, Nathan visited the cosmetics section of a local store and asked the clerk, 'How about some perfume?' She showed him a bottle costing $150. 'Too expensive,' he muttered.

The young lady returned with a smaller bottle for $75. 'Oh dear,' Nathan groused, 'still far too much.'

Growing rather annoyed, the sales girl brought out a tiny $20 bottle and offered it to him. Nathan became really agitated, 'What I mean', he whined, 'is I'd like to see something really cheap.'

So, the sales girl handed him a mirror.

So, guys, how is your shopping coming along? And that’s the bottom of the news on this Friday December 14, 2012.
