An old snake goes to see his doctor. He says "doctor I need something for my eyes, I can't see well these days".
The doctor fixes him up with a pair of glasses, and tells him to return in two weeks. The snake comes back in two weeks, and tells the doctor he's very depressed. The doctor says "what's the problem, didn't the glasses help?" "The glasses are fine doc. I just discovered I've been living with a water hose for the last two years". |

A couple had two boys aged 8 and 10, who were excessively mischievous. They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew that if any mischief occured in their town, their sons would get the blame.
The boy's mother heard that a clergyman in town had been successful in disciplining children. So she asked if he would speak to the boys. The clergyman agreed and asked to see them individually. So, the mother sent her 8 year old first, in the morning, with the 10 year old in the afternoon. The clergyman, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "where is God"? The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there with his mouth hanging open. the clergyman repeated the question, "where is God"? Again the boy made no attempt to answer. So the clergyman raised his voice some more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "where is God"? The boy screamed and bolted from the room. He ran directly home and climbed into his closet, slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, "what happened"? The younger brother, gasping for breath replied, "we are in big trouble this time. God is missing and they think we did it". |

Hi Krummhorn, ![]() ![]() Not a joke, but certainly humorous "alternate" lyrics for the well known hymn tune: St. Denio: (Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise) Immoral, impossible, God only knows how tenors and basses, sopranos, altos at service on Sunday are rarely the same as those who on Thursday to choir practice came. Unready, unable to sight-read the notes nor counting, nor blending, they tighten their throats. The descant so piercing is soaring above the melody only a mother could love. They have a director, but no one knows why. No one in the choir deigns turn him an eye. It's clear by his waving, he wants them to look, but each of them stands with his nose in the book. Despite the offenses, the music rings out. The folks in the pews are enraptured, no doubt. Their faces are blissful, their thoughts are so deep, But it is no wonder, for they are asleep |

Thanx you most blessed, honored, and most dear Krummhorn for sharing the alternate text to the St. Denio tune. I heard it many years ago and busted my ribs with laughter. Again you brought me great mirth and merriment
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you dear sir, Corno Dolce ps. Sooooooooo true - life does imitate art - you can wave all you want as choir director but sometimes being a choir director is like herding cats. |

That alternate text was really funny.
Here's more laughter I hope. A new paster moved into town, and went out one Saturday to visit his parishioners. All went well until he came to one house. It was obvious that someone was home, but no-one came to the door, even after he had knocked several times. Finally he took out his card, wrote on the back "Revelation 3:20" and stuck it in the door. The next day as he was counting the offering, he found his card in the collection plate. below his message was a notation "Genesis 3:10". Upon opening his Bible to the passage his face turned red, and he let out a roar of laughter. Revelation 3:20 reads "Behold, I stand at the door and knock, if any man hear my voice, and opens the door I will come in to him, and will dine with him and he with me". Genesis 3:10 Reads "And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked". |
