Joke - Just Keep It Wet!
JUST KEEP IT WET
Miss Bea was in her 80's and much admired for her sweetness
and kindness to all. The pastor came to call on her one afternoon
early in the Spring and she welcomed him into her Victorian parlor.
She invited him to have a seat while she prepared a little tea.
As he sat facing her old pump organ, the minister noticed a cut
glass bowl setting on top of it, filled with water. In the water
floated, of all things, a condom.
Imagine his shock and surprise. Imagine his curiosity;
surely Miss Bea had flipped! But he certainly couldn't
mention the strange sight in her parlor.
When she returned with tea and cookies they began to chat. The
pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl and its strange
floater, but soon it got the best of him, and he could resist no
longer. "Miss Bea," he said, "I wonder if you would tell me about
this." Pointing to the bowl.
"Oh, yes," she replied, "Isn't it wonderful! I was walking down
town last fall and I found this little package. It said to put
it on your organ and keep it wet, and it would prevent disease.
And you know, I think it is working, I haven't had a cold all winter!"
