Leroy Williams gets in the line, and when it's his turn, the preacher says: 'Hello, Leroy Williams, what do you want me to pray about for you?'

At that, the preacher puts a finger to Leroy's left ear, and places the other hand atop his head. Then he tilts his own head to the Heavens and begins praying with great gusto.

Leroy says, 'I don't know, Reverend, it ain't till next Wednesday.'

A teacher was talking to her class of six-year-olds about whales.
She insisted it was impossible for whales to swallow humans because, although they are very large, their throats are very small.
One young girl in front, Penny Dwyer, put her hand up to say that poor Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated to Penny that it is physically impossible for whales to swallow humans.
Undeterred, Penny retorted, 'When I get to Heaven I'm gonna ask Mr. Jonah myself.'
'Really, Penny?' responded the teacher. 'So... what if Jonah went to Hell?'
The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him'.

THE RIGHT SOLUTION, or not?
I heard my hero, Warlock Bones, playing the fiddle.
'Lostim, you pressed your trousers under a bed!'
'So, how do you know?'
'I've studied trousers over my lifetime. I noticed it once at your home.'
Then he said, 'In thirteen or so minutes, this man will arrive; a Finnish gentleman, he has a wife, two children, and three false teeth.'
'But how on earth can you tell?'
'Oh, he's a personal friend, regarding a stolen necklace.'
'But... the police?'
'The shortsighted dolts interrogated thirteen innocents, then will next arrest my poor friend's wife.'
'Frightful. Lord preserve us!'
'It is quite clear to me. Listen, the thief I'm loath to produce, but I can lay my hands on the gems.'
He went to his safe and extracted a case. It contained diamonds, shimmering in the lamp light.
'But - how... ?'
"I stole them,' said Warlock Bones.
