There was a Scottish painter named Smokey MacGregor who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further.

As it happened, he got away with this for some time. Eventually the local church decided to do a big restoration job on the outside of one of their biggest buildings.

Smokey put in a bid; and because his price was so low, he got the job.

So he set about erecting the scaffolding and setting up the planks, and buying the paint and, yes, I am sorry to say, thinning it down with turpentine.

Well, Smokey was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly completed, when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder, the sky opened, and the rain poured down, washing the thinned paint from all over the church and knocking Smokey clear off the scaffold to land on the lawn among the gravestones, surrounded by telltale puddles of the thinned and useless paint.

Smokey was no fool. He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty, so he got down on his knees and cried,

"Oh, God, Oh, God, forgive me.  What should I do?"

And from the thunder, a mighty voice spoke,



 





"Repaint! Repaint!

And thin no more!"

After a long car ride, a young man was disgusted when his car suddenly broke down. Getting out, he noticed that the road was purple. The grass to each side was purple as well, and there was a purple sky. There was also a purple path that led to a purple house. Deciding he'd follow the purple path, he came to the purple house and knocked on the purple door. A few minutes later the purple door was opened to reveal a man wearing a purple robe and purple slippers. He asked what the matter was, to which the young man replied, "Hi, my name is George. My car broke down on the road. Could I use your phone?" The man in the purple robe replied that he didn't have a purple phone, but he would be happy to let George stay in his purple house for the night, for there had just started a purple thunderstorm outside, and he would help George out in the morning. George gave his thanks. "Don't mention it," said the man in the purple robe, who closed the purple door, led him across the purple hallway that had a purple rug, through his purple livingroom, and to his purple stairs. At the top of the purple stairs, George noticed another purple hallway with another purple rug, and there was a row of several purple doors on either side of the purple hall. The purple-robed man led George to the first purple door, opened the purple door, gave the young man a second purple robe, and bade him goodnight.

About an hour later, there was another knock on the purple door. The purple-robed man came to the purple door and opened it, to reveal a rain-drenched man, who had also broken down, and revealed himself as Billy. The purple-robed man led Billy into his downstairs purple hallway with the purple rug, closed the purple door, and led him through the purple livingroom and up the purple stairs to the upstairs purple hallway with the purple rug, and led him to the second purple door. Opening the second purple door, the purple-robed man gave Billy a third purple robe and bade him good night as well.

About an hour later, once again, there was a third knock on the purple door. The purple-robed man opened it to reveal another rain-drenched man, who had also broken down outside, and his name was Dan. The purple-robed man led Dan into his downstairs purple hallway with the purple rug, closed the purple door, and led Dan through his purple livingroom, up the purple stairs, and into the upstairs purple hallway with the purple rug. The purple-robed man took Dan to the third purple door, gave him a fourth purple robe, and told him to have a good purple night.

The next morning, the three men opened their purple doors and came out into the upstairs purple hallway with the purple rug, all wearing their purple robes, and started down the purple stairs. Heading through the purple livingroom, they entered the purple kitchen where the purple-robed man was, preparing some breakfast. He asked the men what they would like, and they just decided on some cereal. The three men sat down at the purple table and the purple-robed man brought out Frosted Flakes and Cheerios. George picked Frosted Flakes, Billy Cheerios, and Dan Frosted Flakes. Now, what's the moral of this story?

Two out of three men prefer Frosted Flakes to Cheerios!

A bloke starts  his new job at the zoo and is given three  tasks. 
         
First is to  clear the exotic fish pool of weeds. 
         

As he does this  a huge fish jumps out and bites him. To show who  is boss, he beats  it to death with a spade. 
         

Realizing his  employer won't be best pleased he disposes of the fish  by feeding it to  the lions, as lions will eat anything. 
         

Moving on to the  second job of clearing out the Chimp house, he  is attacked by the  chimps that pelt him with coconuts. 
         

He swipes at two  chimps with a spade killing them both. What can he  do? 
         
Feed them to the  lions, he says to himself, because lions  eat  anything... 
         

He hurls the  corpses into the lion enclosure. 
         

He moves on to  the last job which is to collect honey from the  South American  Bees. 
         

As soon as he  starts he is attacked by the bees. He grabs the spade  and smashes the bees  to a pulp. 
         

By now he knows  what to do and shovels them into the lions cage  because  lions eat  anything. 
         

Later that day a  new lion arrives at the zoo.. He wanders up to  another  lion and says  "What's the food like here?" 
         

The lions say:  "Absolutely brilliant, today we had Fish and Chimps  with  Mushy  Bees

Do Las Vegas Churches accept gambling chips?
 
THIS MAY COME AS A SURPRISE TO THOSE OF YOU NOT LIVING IN LAS VEGAS,
BUT THERE ARE MORE CATHOLIC CHURCHES THAN CASINOS.
 
NOT SURPRISINGLY, SOME WORSHIPERS AT SUNDAY SERVICES WILL GIVE CASINO CHIPS RATHER THAN CASH WHEN THE BASKET IS PASSED.
 
SINCE THEY GET CHIPS FROM MANY DIFFERENT CASINOS, THE CHURCHES HAVE DEVISED A METHOD TO COLLECT THE OFFERINGS.
 
THE CHURCHES SEND ALL THEIR COLLECTED CHIPS TO A NEARBY FRANCISCAN MONASTERY FOR SORTING AND THEN THE CHIPS ARE TAKEN TO THE CASINOS OF ORIGIN AND CASHED IN.
 
 
 
THIS IS DONE BY THE CHIP MONKS.
