Jesus is watching you

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables when a voice in the dark said,

‘Jesus knows you’re here.’

He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze. When he heard nothing more, after a bit, he shook his head and continued. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard,

‘Jesus is watching you.’

Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.

‘Did you say that?’ he hissed at the parrot.

‘Yep’, the parrot confessed, and then squawked, ‘I’m just trying to warn you that he is watching you.’

The burglar relaxed. ‘Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?’

‘Moses,’ replied the bird.

‘Moses?’ the burglar laughed. ‘What kind of people would name a bird Moses?’

‘The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler Jesus.’

RCMP Bravery – Frozen Caburetor

They complain about the RCMP, but you rarely hear about the positive things that they do, such as this one.

In the fun world of the administration of justice, not all the laughs are in the court-room. Indeed, giggles and guffaws can erupt at almost any time or place.
For example:

On a bitterly cold winter’s day several years ago in Northern British Columbia, an RCMP constable on patrol came across a motorcyclist, who was swathed in protective clothing and helmet, stalled by the roadside.

“What’s the matter?” asked the Policeman.

“Carburetor’s frozen,” was the terse reply.

“Pee on it. That’ll thaw it out.”

“Can’t.”

“OK, Watch me and I will show you.”

The constable lubricated the carburetor, as promised.

The bike started and the rider drove off, waving.

A few days later, the detachment office received a note of thanks from the father of the motorbike rider.

It began: “On behalf of my daughter, who was recently stranded . . . .”

Cowboy Honeymoon

A cowboy and his new wife had just got married and found a nice hotel in High River for their wedding night.
The man approached the front desk and asked for a room. He said, ‘Howdy, we’re on our honeymoon and we need a nice room with a good strong bed.’
The clerk winked, ‘You want the Bridal’?
The cowboy reflected on this for a moment and then replied,
‘Nope, I reckon not. I’ll just hold onto her ears until she gets used to it.’

The decision

A man wakes up in the hospital, bandaged from head to foot

The doctor comes in.

“Ah, I see you’ve regained consciousness. Now, you probably don’t remember, but you were in a pile-up on the freeway. You’re going to be okay and you will walk again. However, something else happened. I’ll try to break this to you gently. The fact is, your willy was chopped off in the wreck and we were unable to find it.”

The man groans.

The doctor goes on, “You do have $9,000.00 in insurance compensation coming and we do have the technology to build you a new willy that will work as well as your old one did – better in fact! But the thing is, it doesn’t come cheap. It’s $1,000 an inch.”

The man perks up at this.

So,” the doctor says, “It’s for you to decide how many inches you want. But it’s something you’d better discuss with your wife. I mean, if you had a five inch one before, and you decide to go for a nine incher, she might be a bit put out. But if you had a nine inch one before, and you decide only to invest in a five incher this time, she might be disappointed. So it’s important that she plays a role in helping you make the decision.”

The man agrees to talk with his wife.

The doctor comes back the next day. “So,” says the doctor, “have you spoken with your wife?”

“I have,” says the man.

“And what’s the decision?” asks the doctor.

“We’re getting granite counter tops.”

Strange Court Ruling

Ontario Judge makes unprecedented ruling – another case of truth being stranger than fiction…

TORONTO, ONTARIO (CP)

A seven-year-old Toronto, Ontario boy was at the centre of a Toronto city courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law & regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy alleged they had also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references & confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Toronto Maple Leafs, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone!
