My One Request

"There Is No Atheist In A Fox Hole"

An atheist was spending a quiet day fishing when
suddenly his boat was attacked by the Loch Ness
monster. In one easy flip, the beast tossed him
and his boat high into the air. Then it opened its
mouth to swallow both.

As the man sailed head over heels, he cried out,
"Oh, my G~d! Help me!"

At once, the ferocious attack scene froze in place,
and as the atheist hung in mid-air, a booming
voice came down from the clouds, "I thought you
didn't believe in Me!"

"Come on G~d, give me a break!!" the man
pleaded. "two minutes ago I didn't believe in
the Loch Ness monster either!"

"My One Request"

One night a blonde nun was praying in her room
when G~d appeared before her.

"My daughter, you have pleased me greatly. Your
heart is full of love for your fellow creatures and
your actions and prayers are always for the benefit
of others. I have come to you, not only to thank and
commend you, but to grant you anything you wish,"
said G~d.

"Dear Heavenly Father, I am perfectly happy. I am
a bride of Christ. I am doing what I love. I lack for
nothing material since the Church supports me.
I am content in all ways," said the nun.

"There must be something you would have of me,"
said G~d.

"Well, there is one thing," she said.

"Just name it," said G~d.

"It's those blonde jokes. They are so demeaning to
blondes everywhere, not just to me. I would like for
blonde jokes to stop."

"Consider it done," said G~d. Blonde jokes shall be
stricken from the minds of humans everywhere. But
surely there is something that I could do just for you."

"There is one thing. But it's really small, and not
worth your time," said the nun.

"Name it. Please," said G~d.

"It's the M&Ms," said the nun. "They're so hard
to peel..."
