AN ITEM OF HARMONY
"tanks" here---time for a laugh:-
MY EXPERIENCE IN VICTORIA.
>
> When returning to Perth from a meeting in Melbourne I found myself in a
Christian Book Shop and I saw a bumper-bar sticker, which read "Honk if you
love Jesus", I thought that was a good idea, so I bought one and put it on
my car bumper-bar.
> Gee I'm glad I did; what an uplifting experience followed!!. I stopped at
a red light outside the railway station at Swanson Street Bridge and I was
lost in thought about the Lord and how good he is. I did'nt notice that the
lights had changed.
>
> It's a good thing that someone else loves Jesus because if they had'nt
honked I'd never have noticed them. Then I found Lots of people love Jesus.
While Iwas sitting there a man in a car behind me started honking like crazy
and he leaned out of his car window and screamed "For the love of God -
Go-Go-Go!. What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus! -Everyone started
honking.
>
> I leaned out of my window and started waving and smiling at all of those
loving people. I even honked my horn several times to share in the
celebrations. I saw another man waving in a funny way with only his Middle
Finger stuck up in the air.
>
> I asked my young grandson in the back seat what that meant. He said it was
probably a Melbournian good luck sign or something. Well I've never made
friends with anyone from Melbourne, so I leaned out the window and gave him
the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out laughing --even he was
enjoying this religious experience.
>
> A couple of people were so caught up in the joy of the moment they got out
of their cars and started walking towards me. I bet they wanted to pray or
ask me what church I attended. But this was when I saw the lights had
changed, so I waved to all my new brothers and sisters and drove on through
the intersection.
>
> I noticed that I was the only car that got through the lights before they
changed again. I felt kind of sad that I had to leave them after the love
we had shared, so I slowed down, leant out of the window and gave them all
the Melbournian good luck sign one last time as I drove away.
>
> Praise the Lord for such wonderful people.
>
> Now that I'm in Broome I have noticed many of them up here on holidays. I
know this because my motor scooter has a maximun speed of about 45-50 kph.,
and while I have been riding the scooter in the 90 kph., section of Broome
Highway to go into Chinatown for the mail they all give me the Good Luck
sign and honk their horn.
I'm now 87 years old, having experienced another birthday, and I'm still living in WA, single (gave up looking), white hair, no teeth, no money, no worries.
I plan to have another birthday next year.

Re: AN ITEM OF HARMONY
Well,
The ones I associate with certainly do.
I've passed on a few jokes that have popped up here and in my email in-box.
They've all laughed, and not that nervous 'polite' laugh...

BTW,
I really like the Parking Inspector's funeral.

Re: AN ITEM OF HARMONY
I knew the priest at Beechworth he was an Irish fella and would come into the pub every night for a beer or two, he had the best selection of jokes and never got on his priestly soap box when a naughtier joke was let out. He ended up leaving the church, got married and spent the rest of his life a happy joke telling X priest. I reckon it is the "fake" ones that say they don't like a good joke here and there.
