"Holy Humor" Posted 1 Mar 2021
if you need an ark to save two of each animal i Noah guy creating Eve was the first known example of splitting the Adam fastest sinner in the Bible? Moses broke 10 commandments at once first tennis player in the Bible? Joseph - he served in Pharaoh's court loudest motorcycle? Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the land they say that before Boaz got married the guy was Ruthless

i'm not an underachiever my boss is an overexpecter if you wanted it yesterday you should have asked for it tomorrow everyone brings joy to my office some when they come, some when they go i deserve Oscars for all those times i've feigned interest in meetings just had a 4-hour meeting on improving productivity working hard has never killed a single person but why take the chance?

it's easy to buy clothing for fortune tellers they're all mediums Orion's belt is a huge waist of space (silly joke - only 3 stars) my friend fell into an upholstery machine he's recovered now so is it good or bad to own a vacuum cleaner that really sucks? when you get a run in your stocking and have no spare you're kind of hosed the only living producers of dragon milk are short legged cows

if nothing sticks to Teflon then how does Teflon stay stuck to the pan? why do we call them 'apartments'? shouldn't they be called 'togetherments'? somebody at the airport asked, "how do I get off a non-stop flight?" doesn't it seem rather cruel that the word "lisp" has an "s" in it? why do we call the time of day with super slow traffic 'rush hour'? what would the world be like without hypothetical situations?

i spent yesterday trying to daydream but my mind kept wandering everywhere is within walking distance if you have enough spare time if anybody here has telekinetic powers raise my hand experience is something you don’t get until after you need it when they asked George Washington for ID did he whip out a quarter? the check-out sign said "eight items or less" so I changed my name to Les at the grocery store I saw a sign that said "pet supplies" so I did

Thanks Gershon, I hope I have not been sacrilegious by finding humor in the sacred. I'm so glad you enjoyed ~ 4th John

Hi Andrea, I'm sorry if I didn't respond. I hope you had a good time with Natalyn. Tell her we miss her here at PS. I wonder if she is still writing?

Thank you Tom, you're such a kind soul to visit so often. Sorry these got a late start; usually I post before bed, but didn't remember until I woke up today. Glad it made it to you before your Monday ended! Enjoy your week ~ John
