My colleague and I were making a sales call to a rural church.
At the end of our presentation to the church committee, the chairman
knelt before the alter.
After about a minute of silent prayer, he returned and announced in a
solemn tone, "the Lord tells me we should wait a while on this purchase."
My colleague responded by walking to the altar and kneeling down.
Then he returned to the group, looked at the chairman, and declared, "He
wants to talk with your again."

Dear Abby,
I have been engaged for almost a year. I am to be married next month.
My fiancée's mother is not only very attrac tive but really great and
understanding.
She is putting the entire wedding together and invited me to her place to
go over the invitation list because it had grown a bit beyond what we had
expected it to be.
When I got to her place we reviewed the list and trimmed it down to just
under a hundred...then she floored me.
She said that in a month I would be a married man and that before that
happened, she wanted to have s-e-x with me.
Then she just stood up and walked to her bedroom and on her way said
that I knew where the front door was if I wanted to leave.
I stood there for a few moments, and finally decided that I knew exactly
how to deal with this situation. I headed straight out the front door.
There, leaning against my car was her husband, my father-in-law to be.
He was smiling. He explained that they just wanted to be sure I was a
good kid and would be true to their little girl. I shook his hand and he
congratulated me on passing their little test.
Abby, should I tell my fiancée what her parents did, and that I thought
their "little test" was asinine and insulting to my character?
Or should I keep the whole thing to myself including the fact that the
reason I was walking out to my car was to get a condom?
Signed,
Perplexed
