JOKE of the Day
The Reverend Lewis was completing a temperance sermon and with great expression he said, 'If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river.'
With even greater emphasis he added, 'And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river.'
Finally, the Reverend Lewis said, 'And if I had all the whisky in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river.'
He sat down.
The Curate, Roger Marples, then stood up very cautiously and announced with a smile, 'For our closing hymn let's sing number 365, "Shall We Gather at the River."

That weather thread is now posting that we could have snow on Christmas Day. That would be a first.
Got one hell of a bad head this morning. Don't know if it was from drinking or not.
