Next Friday I will post 10 new questions so study up!



A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter. So he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have circled the block 100 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment. FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES."

When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer along with this note. "I've circled this block for 10 years. If I don't give you a ticket, I'll lose my job. LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION."



Today is four weeks since my daughter's surgery...she is healing fine and we can finally laugh a little. Here are ten things you hope never to hear in surgery...in celebration have a laugh!




  • What's this doing in here?

  • DARN! Page 47 of the manual is missing!

  • I hate it when they're missing stuff in here.

  • Nurse, did this patient sign the organ donation card?

  • Don't worry. I think it is sharp enough.

  • That's cool! Now can you make his leg twitch?!

  • Well folks, this will be an experiment for all of us.

  • You sure it wasn't this leg?

  • OK, now take a picture from this angle. This is truly a freak of nature.

  • There go the lights again...

Here's a brain teaser...


FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE- SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF- IC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.


Now count aloud the ' F' s in that sentence.
Count them ONLY ONCE; do not go back and count them again.
The answer is at the bottom.



Answers: 1. Sarah 2. man, red earth 3. Mara 4. Daniel 5. Christ 6. God is salvation 7. Andrew 8. Paul 9. son of 10. Asa


Answer to brain teaser: There are six F's in the sentence. One of average intelligence finds three of them. If you spotted four, you're above average. If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody. If you caught six, you are a genius. There is no catch. Many people forget the OFs. The human brain tends to see them as "V's" instead of "F's".

That was fun! It reminded me of when I did use to post the trivia things.

I am glad that your daughter is healing great.
