Lights flash, horns blow, bells ring, and the gates of heaven open wide and the nun enters. Well the second nun steps up and says I guess I will go next. St Peter asks her “Who was the first woman on Earth?” She answers thats easy Eve was the first woman on Earth. Lights flash, horns blow, bells ring and the gates of heaven open up and that nun enters. The last nun steps up and says I guess it is my turn now. St Peter then asks her “What were the first words Eve said to Adam?”. The nun thinks and thinks and she cant come up with what Evesaid to Adam first so she looks at St Peter and says “Thats hard”.

The Pope was told, however, that it would take about 24 hours to fix the problem and correct the error.

The next day, the Pope was called in and the devil said his good-bye as he went off to heaven. On his way up, he met Clinton who was on his way down, and they stop to chat.

Pope: Sorry about the mix up.

President Clinton: No problem.

Pope: Well, I’m really excited about going to heaven.

President Clinton: Why’s that?

Pope: All my life I’ve wanted to meet the Virgin Mary.

President Clinton: You’re a day late

Minister Billy Graham

The Reverend Billy Graham tells of a time early in his ministry when he arrived in a small town to preach a sermon. Wanting to mail a letter, he asked a young boy where the post office was.

WHY GOD MADE WOMEN

A man was talking to the Lord about women. “Lord why did you make women so
beautiful?”

The answer came, “So you would look at them.”

Dos ancianos a�oraban casarse, as�

Dos ancianos a�oraban casarse, as� que se dirigieron al cura m�s cercano. Cuando llegaron el cura les pregunt�, “�en qu� les puedo ayudar?”

El anciano le responde: “�Deseamos casarnos!”

Comienzan una peque�a charla, ya que el cura no los quiere casar, debido a que por su avanzada edad si sosten�an relaciones continuamente uno de los dos pod�a morir. Al final llegan a un arreglo y deciden que �nicamente pueden hacer el amor cada quince d�as.

Durante un largo tiempo los ancianos cumplen con este requisito, cuando en una noche
la anciana se dirige muy cautelosamente hacia la habitaci�n del anciano. Cuando el anciano se da cuenta de la presencia de su esposa le dice:

“MIJA, acu�rdese del compromiso que hicimos con el cura de solamente hacer el amor cada quince d�as, y recuerde que apenas ayer fue el d�a.”

Y la venerable anciana le contesta:

“�MIJO, ES QUE YO VENGO A VER SI ME ADELANTA UNA QUINCENITA!”
