Weekend Humor


Monroe and his wife Martha went to the State Fair every year.


Every year Monroe would say, "Martha, I'd like to ride in that airplane."


And every year Martha would say, "I know, Monroe, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars."


 This one year Monroe and Martha went to the fair and Monroe said, "Martha, I'm 71 years old. If I don't ride that airplane this year I may never get another chance." Martha replied,


"Monroe, that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars."


The pilot overheard them and said, "Folks, I"ll make you a deal. I"ll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I won't charge you, but if you say one word it's ten dollars."


Monroe and Martha agreed and up they go. The pilot does all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is heard.


He does all his tricks over again, but still not a word. They land and the pilot turns to Monroe, "By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didn't."


Monroe replied, "Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, but ten dollars is ten dollars."




EVERYBODY HAVE A SUPER GROOVY WEEKEND!

KEEPING THE FAITH: RANDOM PRAYERS "ON THE DOWNLOAD"

DEAR GOD: Sometimes it is so hard to wait. To wait for new things to happen in my life. To wait for you to answer my prayers. To wait for the open doors that may lead me into a new way of being. During the time of waiting, it seems that all I can think of is having what it is I am waiting for. At times I feel weary of asking and waiting, and I wonder if you really hear my prayers at all, if you are ignoring me, or if you are simply refusing to give me my heart’s desire. A part of me knows that you want my best, and that your time is not my time, but Lord, it is still so hard to wait. Deepen my trust, O Lord, during the times when my heart longs for what can only come in the fullness of time. Give me a calm assurance that your will for me is grander than anything I could ever imagine. Still my mind and heart in your love so that I am mindful of the grace you are draping around me every single day, every single moment. I ask this for the sake of your love. Amen.
