THE WEEKEND THREAD

Good devotion, thanks.
Praying for you all.
Good morning (for another few minutes anyway)
That is priceless.
Mr. Kerry was going to visit the Catholic National Cathedral outside Washington as a campaign stop. Lockhart made a visit to the Cardinal and said to him, "We've been getting alot of negative publicity amoung Catholics because of Kerry's positions on abortion, gay marriage and the like. We'd gladly make a contribution to the church of $100,000 if during your sermon you'd say John Kerry is a saint."
The Cardinal thinks it over for a moment and agrees to do it. Kerry shows up, and as the Mass progresses the Cardinal begins his homily.
"John Kerry is petty, a self absorbed hypocrite and a nit wit. He is a liar, a cheat, and a thief. He is the worst example of a Catholic I've ever personally known. But next to Ted Kennedy, John Kerry is a saint!"
Ooooh ... ouch ... I like that swift shark preparing to dine on the shapeshifting cur.
No amount of seasoning could make such a scrawny morsel palatable ... that shark will chew him up and spit him out ... leaving the remains for the bottom feeders.

Yes, I meant to put their names under the picture and I forgot.
The little old couple walked slowly into McDonald's on a
cold winter evening. They looked out of place amid the young
families and young couples. Some of the customers looked
admiringly at them.
You could tell what the admirers were thinking.
"Look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together,
probably for 60 years or more!"
The little old man walked right up to the cash register,
placed his order with no hesitation and then paid for their
meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started
taking food off of the tray. There was one hamburger, one
order of french fries and one drink.
The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and
carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his
wife. Then he carefully counted out the french fries,
divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in
front of his wife. He took a sip of the drink, his wife took
a sip and then set the cup down between them.
As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the
crowd began to get restless. Again you could tell what they
were thinking.
"That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for
the two of them."
As the man began to eat his french fries one young man stood
and came over to the old couple's table. He politely offered
to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. The old man
replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing
everything.
Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady hadn't eaten
a bite. She just sat there watching her husband eat and
occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. Again the young
man came over and begged them to let him buy them something
to eat. The man again explained that no, they were used to
sharing everything together.
As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his
face neatly with a napkin, the young man could stand it no
longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy
some food. After being politely refused again, he finally
asked a question of the little old lady.
"Ma'am, why aren't you eating? You said that you share
everything. What is it that you are waiting for?"
She answered, "The teeth."
God Bless our Troops then and now! God Bless our Leaders! They are all the very best there is!
