ENJOYING THE FIRST BLOOMS IN MY GARDEN THIS SPRING OF 2009 in BEAVERTON MI

As I shared in one of my previous blogs, my sister sends me emails with ....

well, you really just don't know where it came from or what's coming next. Most

are quotes of inspiration, some even by famous people, like Abraham Lincoln

or Bob Hope. Despite the origin, I always enjoy. This, I thought was worth sharing.....

> REDNECK LENT
>
> Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor
> grill and cook a venison steak.
>
> But, all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic..And since it was
> Lent , they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.
> The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing
> such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to
> their priest.
>
> The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a
> Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass...and
> as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, 'You were born a
> Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.'
>
> Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night
> arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the
> neighborhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and, as he
> rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him,
> he stopped and watched in amazement.
>
> There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which
> he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:
> You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish!

Happy Spring to ya'll !
