Thursday's Funnies
Granny
was in her eighties and much admired for her sweetness and kindness to
all. The pastor came to call on her one afternoon early in the spring
and she welcomed him into her parlor. He took a seat while she prepared
some tea. As he sat facing her old pump organ, the minister noticed a
cut glass bowl sitting on top of it, filled with water. In the water
floated, of all things, a condom.
Imagine his shock and surprise! And curiosity! Surely, Miss Granny had flipped!! But he felt he couldn't mention the strange sight in her parlor.
When she returned with the tea and cookies they began to chat. The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and the floating item, but soon it got the better of him and he could resist no longer.
"Miss Granny," he said while pointing to the bowl, "I wonder if you could tell me about this?"
"Oh, yes", she replied, "Isn't it wonderful! I was walking down town last fall and I found this little package. The directions said to put it on the organ, keep it wet, and it would prevent disease. And you know. . . I haven't had a cold all winter."

That's it for me this morning. I think I'm ready for another coffee. Have an enjoy day wherever you are. I'm hearing thunder in the far distance. There will be no golfing today. Maybe tomorrow.
See ya.
I will take some of that rain. Anytime.
ReplyDeleteLoved all the jokes and especially the grandma and the birth control. Smart grandma.
We are heading to the boat today for the weekend. We've a cruise this weekend with our yacht club. I won't be around much.
Have a fabulous day my friend. ☺
Had to laugh at the title "Thunderstorm Thursday" we haven't had rain here for a few days which is unusual lol
ReplyDeleteLoved the jokes and pics :-)
Have a pooltastic day :-)
Paul, thanks so much for the laughs. It was dull here in Montreal today. I love the rain...and yes, thunderstorms, too. Of course I don't enjoy disaster, nobody does, but I do like a good storm, it definitely has its purpose. April showers bring May flowers. I love the fresh smell of the air when it rains, and I like the sound of the rain, too. Great post, thank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteDropping by from Linda's blog and I am glad I did. Your post made ne really smile and I can relate with the weather condition:)
ReplyDeleteGlad it stopped raining long enough for horse riding. Loved the granny condom joke. And fun cruise photos, although we try to hit the pool in the off hours when there are fewer people (during the other dinner seating is a good time).
ReplyDeleteGot rain here in Chattanooga and back in N GA. It is great for washing away all this pollen.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laughs. Big hugs, honey...
