REDNECK LENT

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and
Cook a venison steak But, all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic, and
Since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday. The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their Priest.

The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass ....And as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, 'You were born
a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.'

Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and, as he rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted: 'You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you a catfish.'

Whenever I accompanied my aunt on her visits to the Dr. she would complain to me about the long delay she always endured. It seemed inevitable that---no matter when she scheduled her appointment---she'd have to wait.   One day when my aunt's name was finally called, she was asked to step on the scale. "I need to get your weight today," explained the nurse. Without a moment's hesitation, my aunt replied, "One hour and forty-five minutes."

Medical Instructions:    A man went to the Dr. and told him he wasn't feeling well. the Dr. examined him, left the room and came back with three bottles of pills.   He told the patient.

"How did you do it?" asked Johnny's father.

"Well, he looked at my beard and said, 'Sir, is that beard 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!"

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".
