This smells fishy......................
Can You run away
From GOD,Jonah?
You promised us a joke once we reached Jonah—a fishing joke, I think.
He can try....
I went fishing one morning but after a short time I ran out of worms.
Then I saw a cottonmouth with a frog in its mouth.
Frogs are good bass bait.
Knowing the snake couldn’t bite me with the frog in its mouth, I grabbed it right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.
Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit. So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth. Its eyes rolled back, and it went limp.
I released the snake into the lake without incident and carried on fishing, using the frog.
Not long after, I felt a nudge on my foot. It was that dang snake… with two more frogs.
OK, sorry I asked.....................
Good Morning Dan, and happy new week to everyone.
One of our favorite Bible lessons; greatly appreciate the sculpture.
I don’t know how you find the time to post almost every day Dan, but your labor is deeply appreciated.
Answer: I’m retired, so I have the time, and God told me to spend it doing this.
One day, two guys Frank, and Bob, were out fishing. A funeral service passes over the bridge they’re fishing by, and Bob takes off his hat and puts it over his heart. He does this until the funeral service passes by.
Frank said, “Gee, Bob, I didn’t know you had it in you!”
Bob replied, “It’s the least I could do. After all, I was married to her for 30 years.”
One day a rather inebriated ice fisherman drilled a hole in the ice and peered into the hole and a loud voice from above said, “There are no fish down there.”
He walked several yards away and drilled another hole and peered into the hole and again the voice said, “There’s no fish down there.”
He then walked about 50 yards away and drilled another hole and again the voice said, “There’s no fish down there.”
He looked up into the sky and asked, “God, is that you?” “No, you idiot,” the voice said, “it’s the rink manager.”
More commonly told, I think, about golfers.
LOL
Three priests were fishing on a boat when they ran out of bait. The first priest got up and walked across the water to get some more bait.
After two hours they ran out of bait again and the second priest said he would go get more bait, so he got up and walked across the water.
After three hours of fishing, they ran out of bait again and the third priest said he would get more bait. So, he stepped out of the boat and went straight to the bottom.
The first priest turned to the second priest and asked, “Should we have told him where the rocks were?”
OK, that’s funny. 😄
Good Morning, Dan. :-)

Returning to the subject, since it appears you have tapped into the Mother Lode: do you suppose Jonah thought up any fish jokes during his Soggy Saga?
