your son of gambling," he said.
"How did you do it?" asked Johnny's father.

real or false? I wouldn't mind betting five dollars that is is false.'
'Al right,' I replied. 'I'll take your bet. Now
pull it and
see.' Of course, my beard is real," said the principal.
"He had to pay me five dollars, so I'm sure that will cure him of gambling."
"Oh, no!" groaned the father. "Last night he bet me ten
dollars that you'd let him pull your beard!"

learned at Sunday school.
"Well, Mom, our teacher told us how God sent Moses behind enemy lines on a rescue mission
to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. When he got to the Red Sea, he had his engineers build a pontoon bridge and all
the people walked across safely. Then he used his walkie-talkie to radio headquarters for reinforcements. They
send bombers to blow up the bridge and all the Israelites were saved."
"Now Kyle, is that really what your teacher taught you?" his mother asked.
"Well, no. But if I told it the way the teacher did, you'd never believe it."

As the dog left the butcher closed down the shop and decided to follow it. The dog gets to the bus stop
and waits. A few buses pass and the dog ignores them still not eating the meat. Finally bus 923 arrives and the dog pulls
a ticket out of its collar, gives it to the driver and hops on.

follows him every time. The dog got off of the last bus and began to walk still not have eaten the meat. Finally the dog walks

went to the priest. The first crook said "Oh, Father! I have killed an innocent man and now I am feeling very guilty! Please
ask god to forgive me!" The priest murmured a blessing and told the crook "God has forgiven you my son, and now go and drink
the water from the well of purity". The Father pointed toward a fountain with sparkling water. The first crook went and drank
the water. "The water tastes weird" he said and went away.
The second crook came to the priest and said "Oh, Father!
I have stolen alot of money from many people and now I am feeling very guilty! Please ask god to forgive me!" The priest murmured
a blessing and said "God has forgiven you my son, and now go and drink the water from the well of purity". So the second crook
went and drank the sparkling water in the fountain. "This water tastes funny", he said and went away.
Now only the
third crook remained. "What is it that you did wrong, my son?" the priest asked. With an uneasy look the last crook said,"I
peed in the well".
