New Florida Quarter

Gifts from God

There was a preacher whose wife was expecting a baby so he went to the congregation and asked for a raise. After much consideration and discussion, they passed a rule that whenever the preacher's family expanded, so would his paycheck.

After 6 children, this started to get expensive and the Congregation decided to hold another meeting to discuss the preacher's salary. There was much yelling and bickering about how much the clergyman's additional children were costing the church.

Finally, the Preacher got up and spoke to the crowd, “Children are a gift from God,” he said. Silence fell on the congregation. In the back of the room, a little old lady stood up and in her frail voice and said,” Rain is also a gift from God, but when we get too much, we wear rubbers.”

And the congregation said, “Amen”

Cutsey Kid Quotes

NUDITY
I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a Woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, "Mom! That lady isn't wearing a seat belt!

HONESTY
My son Zachary, 4, came screaming out of the bathroom to tell me he'd dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. So I fished it out and threw it in the garbage. Zachary stood there thinking for a moment, then ran to my bath room and came out with my toothbrush. He held it up and said with a charming little smile, "We better throw this one out too it fell in a week ago."

OPINIONS
On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a Note from his mother The note read, "The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents."

KETCHUP
A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup to come out of the jar. During the struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone. "It's the minister, Mommy, " the child said to her mother. Then she added, "Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you right now. She's hitting the bottle."

MORE NUDITY
A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women's locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, "What's the matter haven't you ever seen a little boy before?"

ELDERLY
While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. The various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs, unfailingly intrigued her. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, "The tooth fairy will never believe this!"

DRESS-UP
A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, "Daddy, you shouldn't wear that suit." "And why not, darling?" "You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning."

SCHOOL
A little girl had just finished her first week of school. "I'm just wasting my time," she said to her mother. "I can't read, I can't write and they won't let me talk!"

The Golden Years

A group of seniors were sitting around the pool in sunny Florida talking about all their ailments.

"My arms have gotten so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.


"Yes, I know," said another.


"My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee."


"I couldn't even mark an 'X' at election time, my hands are so crippled, "volunteered a third.


"What? Speak up, I can't hear you," said a fourth.


"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a fifth, to which several nodded weakly in agreement.


"My blood pressure pills make me so dizzy I can hardly walk," exclaimed another.


"I forget where I am and where I'm going," said an elderly gent.


"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he slowly shook his head.


The others nodded in agreement.


"Well, count your blessings," said one woman cheerfully.



"THANK GOD WE ALL CAN DRIVE!"

Not Terribly Funny


But I thought this was a very cool decoration for this time of year.
Fangs for your patience and Happy Halloween!
