Old Bones

"Drawing"

A teacher asked her students to draw a picture
of their favorite Old Testament story, and as
she moved around the class, she saw there
were many wonderful drawings being done.
Then she came across Johnny who had
drawn a man driving an old car. In the back
seat were two passengers, both scantily dressed.

"It's a lovely picture," said the teacher, "but
which story does it tell?"

Johnny seemed surprised at the question.
"Well," he exclaimed, "doesn't it say in the BIBLE
that G~d drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden?"

"Old Bones"

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural
History were marveling at the dinosaur bones.
One of them asked the guard, "Can you tell me
how old the dinosaur bones are?"

The guard replied, "They are 3 million, four years,
and six months old."

"That's an awfully exact number," says the tourist.
"How do you know their age so precisely?"

The guard answered, "Well, the dinosaur bones
were three million years old when I started working
here, and that was four and a half years ago."
