In honor of Sunday, I will post a Jesus joke
Ok, it's not really a joke, it's more of a story.
It's a story about an incident that happend a long long time ago, when people were far less civilized than we are today.
The story is about a young woman who had been 'convicted' and sentenced to death by stoning, for being a 'less than virtuous' woman. A large crowd had gathered to carry out the deed. The crowd consisted of all the townspeople, men, women, and children, young and elderly alike. The townspeople were gathering stones for the execution. The strong gathered large stones, while the young and elderly gathered smaller stones. They were all crowding around the young woman just about to do her in, when out of nowhere appeared Jesus himself. Realizing what was about to happen, Jesus questioned the mob, "Who among us is without sin? Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone". A look of collective guilt came over the mob. Faces and eyes were cast downward in shame, as rock after rock fell safely to the earth as the angry grips loosened. Then, just as the danger was about to pass, one elderly woman emerged from the crowd, charged the young lady, and crushed her to death with a single blow from a stone. Jesus turned to the elderly woman and said, "Mom, sometimes you piss me off."

Please pardon the blasphemy.

Funny as hell.

3. All this talk of stones and Jesus reminds me
of a song by the "Stones" ... a little something that ah goes like this:

I was driving one Sunday morning through Bakersfield listening to the gospel radio station when the preacher comes on and says,"YA KNOW YA ALWAYS HAVE THE LORD RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE". I was so pleased to be informed of this that I ran twenty red lights in his honor.


GET A GIRL WITH FAR AWAY EYES!!!!
