After Leslie brought home her fiancé to meet her parents, her father invited the young man into his study to find out more about him.
"What are your plans?" he asked Joseph.
"I'm a scholar of the Torah," Joseph replied.
"Well, that's admirable," Leslie's father replied. "But what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter?"
"I will study, and God will surely provide for us," Joseph explained.
"And how will you buy her a nice engagement ring?"
"I will study hard, and God will provide for us."
"And children?" asked the father. "How will you support children?"
"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replied the fiancé.
The conversation continued in much the same fashion.
After Joseph and Leslie had left, her mother asked her father what he found out.
The father answered, "Well, he has no job and no plans, but the good news is that he thinks I'm God."
Cheers,

Paul (A.) scores again ... as always.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, I wish Paul (A.) was about the place rather more than he is.
ReplyDeleteSince y'all love his stuff so much, I'll check around to see if I have anything else from Paul (A.) that I have not posted.
ReplyDeleteSince you evidently didn't like the video from the other day, I just sent you a fresh joke. If you like it, post it.
ReplyDeleteWhere's the evidence that I didn't like the video, Mr Lawyer Man?
ReplyDeleteTom just now read the joke you sent and thought it was hilarious. I did, too. I may have posted the joke once before, but it was a long time ago, so it's time for a rerun.
