A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer. "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it you." The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?" The boy takes the quarters and leaves. "What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!" Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?" The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!"
MY STORY
Everyone loved Priest John. He was a happy jolly fellow always willing to help or lend a hand. One time, John was walking down the street humming a tune when he saw a little boy trying to reach the doorbell of a nearby house.
“Hey there son”, said John “let me help you out”, and with that John reached out and pressed the bell.
“Anything else I can do for you?”, asked John with a smile.
“Yes”, said the boy. “Run! We’ve only got a few seconds before they come!”
