A man who went to church with his wife
always fell asleep during the sermon. One Sunday, the wife decided to do something about
it, so she picked up a long hat pin and took it with her to church.
While sitting in church, the wife noticed
that her husband was once again falling asleep, and as the preacher got to a part in the
sermon where he shouted out "... and who created all there is in 6 days?" she
poked her husband who jumped from the pew and shouted, "Good God all mighty!"
The minister looked at the man and said,
"That's right, that's right," and he continued with the sermon. The man sat back
down, muttering under his breath.
Later on, once again the man began to doze
off, and just as the minister reached "... and who died on the cross to save us from
our sins?" the wife again poked her husband, and he leaped from the pew and shouted,
"Jesus Christ!"
The minister again looked at the man and
said, "That's right, that's right," and went on with the sermon. The man sat
back down, and gave his wife an angry look.
Even so, the man was tired and ten minutes
later he was feeling incredibly sleepy, so he closed his eyes and leaned his head back.
His wife noticed that he was about to fall asleep again, so she pulled out the hat pin,
and just as the minister said, "...and what did Eve say to Adam after the birth of
their second child?" she poked him as hard as she could. The man sprang from the pew
and shouted, "If you stick me with that thing again I'm going to break it in
two!"
