                    A pastor told about how he had to rushed his baby daughter to the emergency room to have her stomach pumped.  She was born without the ability to smell.  One day, she was crawling around on the floor, and she came upon a bowl of turpentine, paint thinner.  It looked like milk, and she couldn’t

                    Four people—a pilot, a professor, a pastor, and a hiker—were flying in a small plane when 
the engines died. The pilot said, “There are only three parachutes. Since this is my plane, I’m taking one of them.” He put it on and jumped out. The professor said, “I’m brilliant and the world needs me, so

                    A few years ago at the Women’s Banquet, I was the head cook and decided to make meatballs, along with pasta, Italian bread, and salad.  I announced we had plates with 1 meatball for a small serving and 2 meatballs for a regular serving.  Some people were saying, “they are going to starve us.”  They

                    Assumptions can be quite dangerous.  For example, the photographer for a national magazine was assigned to get photos of a great forest fire. Smoke at the scene hampered him and he asked his home office to hire a plane. Arrangements were made and he was told to go at once to a nearby airport, where

A little boy came running to his mother, shouting, “Mother, I am nine feet tall.”  
His mother responded, “Don’t talk such nonsense.”  
“But,” he said, “I really am nine feet tall.  I measured myself.”  
“Well, how did you measure yourself?” asked his mother.
