Baptism

"Road to Tuscaloosa"

A tourist on his way to Tuscaloosa, came to a fork
in the road and stopped. There was no sign
indicating which route went where.

Spotting a boy by the road, he yelled out, "Hey, kid,
does it matter which road I take to Tuscaloosa?"

"Not to me it don't." replied the boy.

"Before a Meal"

A young lady, having committed some small
offense, was made to eat dinner alone, at a
little table in the corner of the kitchen.

The rest of the family was paying her no attention
until she began to pray in a loud voice, "I thank
you, Lord, for preparing this table before me in
the presence of mine enemies..."

"Baptism"

Before performing a baptism, the priest
approached the young father and said solemnly,
"Baptism is a serious step. Are you prepared for it?"

"I think so," the man replied. "My wife made
appetizers last night and we have a caterer
coming this morning with roast beef, fried chicken
and potato salad."

"I don't mean that," the priest responded. "I mean,
are you prepared spiritually?"

"Sure," came the reply. "I've got a keg of beer and
a case of bourbon."
