Flags: 000000000000 From: wgm@mbunix.UUCP (Woodhouse) Subject: Pastoral Visits Keywords: gross, smirk Date: 17 Nov 88 16:30:03 GMT Organization: The MITRE Corporation, Bedford, Mass. A pastor was visiting an elderly lady who was a "shut in." Since she didn't get very many visitors, she went on incessantly about her problems while the pastor nibbled on some peanuts on the coffee table in front of him. After about a half hour, and with his endurance almost expended, he politely interrupted, explaining that he had other appointments that afternoon and said, "I'm afraid I've eaten most of your peanuts while I was listening and I would like to leave you a couple of dollars so that you can get some more." "No," replied the woman, "With my dentures I can't chew them. It's all I can do just to suck the chocolate off them." -- G. Mark Woodhouse -- Edited by Brad Templeton.
