A young journalist gets a job…
A young journalist gets a job at a provincial newspaper in the middle of the prairies. His first assignment was to write a human-interest story. Driving through the cornfields, he spied an old farm-hand and introduced himself.
“Out here in the middle of nowhere – has anything ever happened that made you happy?”.
“Yup!” he exclaimed, suddenly.
“One time my neighbour’s daughter, got lost. So we formed a posse, we eventually found her. After we all screwed her, we took her home.”
The young journalist blanched. “I can’t print that!”.
“Has anything else happened?” The farmer thought again.
”Yeah!” he said. “One of my neighbour’s sheep got lost. We found it and all screwed it before we took it back home.”
“
Christ!” yelled the young man. “I can’t print that either!”.
”OK – has anything around here that made you particularly sad?”
The old man looked at the ground. “Well,” he said sheepishly. “I got lost, once.”

Forgiveness
The Alabama preacher said to his congregation, “Someone in this congregation has spread a rumor that I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a horrible lie and done which a Christian community cannot tolerate. I am embarrassed and do not intend to accept this. Now, I want the party who did this to stand and ask forgiveness from God and this Christian Family.” No one moved.
The preacher continued, “Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a falsehood? Remember, you will be forgiven and in your heart you will feel glory. Now stand and confess your transgression.” Again all was quiet.
Then slowly, a drop-dead gorgeous blonde with a body that would stop traffic rose from the third pew. Her head was bowed and her voice quivered as she spoke, “Reverend there has been a terrible misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I simply told a couple of my friends that you were a wizard under the sheets.” The preacher fell to his knees, his wife fainted,
and the congregation Roared!
