"Advertising Problems"
During the summer months, the Acme Ajax
Picture Theatre did a terrific business.
But when January came around, the proprietor
noticed a big fall-off in business.
The whole thing puzzled him. The other picture
houses were doing business--why not his?
Maybe there was something wrong with the
ushers-maybe it was the box office girl-what
was wrong in his theatre that was keeping the
customers away?
He soon found out on one bitter, January day.
Walking in front of the theatre he saw a sign
that nearly made him keel over-the sign still
hanging there read:
"Forty degrees cooler inside than on the street."

"Clarification"
If you've ever wanted a child to not bear his/her
testimony, (an LDS Church practice) you'll
appreciate this one!! At a recent testimony
meeting, a five-year-old little girl stood up
and bore her testimony. After mentioning
everyone and everything she was thankful for,
she ended with this: "I am especially grateful
that our house has been much happier since
our family stopped using The "S-word" and the "F-word."
As the little girl proudly walked back to her seat,
nobody could say a word. Needless to say they
were a little shocked by what the stake
president's daughter had just said.
Quickly, the red-faced stake president stood up,
smiled shyly, and went to the podium. "I feel I
should make a clarification as to what my daughter
meant. In our house the "S-word" is Shut-up
and the "F-word" is F*rt."
