Don't Get Worms...!

Here is a little something I got from Baby Sis the other day, and I thought you might find it funny!

After all that's gone on the last week or so, we could all use a grin, I reckon! At least this one makes a little bit of sense to me!

Four worms and a lesson to be learned!!!!

A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.

Four worms were placed into four separate jars.

The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.

The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke.

The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup.

The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil.

At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following results:

The first worm in alcohol . . . . . . Dead .

The second worm in cigarette smoke . . . Dead .

Third worm in chocolate syrup . . . . Dead.

Fourth worm in good clean soil . . . Alive …

So the Minister asked the congregation, "What did you learn from this demonstration?"



Maxine was sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said . . . "As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't have worms!"

That pretty much ended the service!

Hey...the logic may be faulty but it still makes sense to me, in a Hermit kind of way! Know what I mean?

Coffee in the kitchen again this morning. The patio is still wet from the recent rains.
