170


______________________________________________________________________________________
A young Priest in Whyalla, South Australia, was asked by a funeral director to hold a grave-side service for a homeless man, who had no family or friends.
The funeral was to be held at a new cemetery way back in the country,
and this man would be the first to be buried there.
The Priest was not familiar with the bush and soon became lost.
Being a typical man, he did not stop to ask for directions.
He finally arrived an hour late.
The Priest saw the backhoe and the open grave, but the hearse was nowhere in sight.
The digging crew was eating lunch.
The priest apologized to the workers for his tardiness,
and stepped to the side of the open grave.
There he saw the vault lid already in place.
The priest assured the workers he would not hold them up for long,
as he told them that this was the proper thing to do.
The workers gathered around the grave and stood silent by,
as the Priest began to pour out his heart and soul.
As he preached about `looking forward to a brighter tomorrow'
and `the glory that is to come,'
the workers began to say
`Amen,' `Praise the Lord,' and `Glory!'
The fervor of these men truly inspired the priest.
So, he preached and preached like he had never preached before,
all the way from Genesis to Revelations.
He finally closed the lengthy service with a prayer,
thanked the men, and walked to his car.
As the priest was opening the car door and taking off his coat,
he heard one of the workers say to another,
`I ain't NEVER seen nothin' like that before,
and I've been puttin' in septic tanks for thirty years!'

Jeb and Jethro live in the hills, about 5 miles outside of town.
Jeb asks Jethro to go in to town to pick up some lumber.
Jethro walks the 5 miles to town to the locallumber yard.
"Jeb says we're gonna need some 4 x 2's"
Jethro tells the yardman.
"Do you mean 2 x 4's?" asks the yardman
."Well, I don't rightly know, I better go ask Jeb" says Jethro
and walks the 10 miles to the hills and back to town
."Jeb says we're gonna need 2 x 4's"
Jethro tells the yardman.
"Now, how many 2 x 4's will you need?" asks the yardman."
Well, I don't rightly know, I better go ask Jeb." says Jethro,
and again walks the 10 miles to the hills and back to town.
"Jeb says were gonna need about 40 of 'em"
Jethro tells the yardman.
"Now, how long will you need them?" asks the yardman.
"Well, I don't rightly know, I better go ask Jeb" says Jethro
and yet again walks the 10 miles to the hills and back to town.
Upon returning Jethro says to the yardman,
"Jeb says you better give 'em to us for a while
. . . we're gonna build a barn."

Role reversal..............Counting sheep





Boudreaux and Tibadeaux, cajun friends them,
went in together and bought a huntin' dog.
Several weeks after the purchase,
the dog came down sick and stopped pointin' like she was supposed to.
They put her in their pickup and took her to the Vet,
who told them the dog was severely dehydrated,
which was causing the dog to not hunt properly.
While driving back from the Vet's office along the levee Boudreaux remarked,
"If all our dog needs is water, we can get lots of water for her right here in the bayou, us."
To this Tibadeaux replied,
"How we gonna get her to drink enough water from the bayou?"
Boudreaux says, "Well, I'll hold her head under the water,
and you go 'round and suck on her hind end like a big soda straw.
That will fill her up with all the water she needs, her."
They take their sick dog down to water's edge
and position themselves as Boudreaux suggested
and start the rescue procedure.
After a short while, the dog gets a severe stomach pain
and craps directly into Tibadeaux's mouth.
Tibadeaux comes up from the water, spittin', coughin' and yellin',
"Boudreaux! Pick up her head!
She's suckin' mud, "
