Here's something that my friend Freddie sent to me a few days ago. Have a good laugh and think of how it may actually happen in Bolehland. No offence to any Catholic. This was posted for the same of humor. Take care and enjoy the weekend!
Painting the Church
There was a Scottish painter named Smokey Macgregor who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further.
As it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually a Catholic Church decided to do a big restoration job on the outside of one of their biggest buildings.
Smokey put in a bid, and, because his price was so low, he got the job.
So he set about erecting the scaffolding and setting up the planks, and buying the paint and, yes, I am sorry to say, thinning it down with turpentine..
Well, Smokey was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly completed, when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder, the sky opened, and the rain poured down washing the thinned paint from all over the church and knocking Smokey clear off the scaffold to land on the lawn among the gravestones, surrounded by telltale puddles of the thinned and useless paint.
Smokey was no fool. He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty,
so he got down on his knees and cried:
"Oh, God, Oh God, forgive me; what should I do?"
And from the thunder, a mighty voice spoke.."Repaint! Repaint! And thin no more!"

Anonymous PURIFY THE MIND -
It's not mine, Please don't mind. Cleanse the mind, It's a gold mine. Read these poetic lines, May your pure mind, emit a brilliant shine, stay on cloud nine, all the time kind, and fine as a rhyme. So, when is the best time to meditate or train the mind? If prime time is not mine DAWN is the best time! YOUNG is the best time! Now is the best time!
