                              Nick's G-Rated Humor List
=======================================================================

When you are young, you want to be the
master of your fate and the captain of
your soul.  When you're older, you'll
settle for being the master of your
weight and the captain of your bowling
team.

==================================
Phill M. offers some thoughts
concerning the left arm/leg jokes...

I heard about the guy who lost his left arm and leg in a car crash.
Off handed, I would say he was left out. However, I still do not
think he was right at the time.

AND concerning the 'other side'
   They do not seem truly right. I have to say they are a little off
handed. I think it is bias that you LEFT out the people who have lost
their right arm and leg?? They can not be left out!! I think we should
put them right in there and tell jokes off-handely about their detachment
from what was once right and talk about what's left.

=============================  SERIOUS STUFF

For Your Inspiration:

As you sit in your house
you hear a sound.
You search for the source,
at the front door it's found.

You open the door and
there stands a man
that you've never met,
with a checkbook in hand.

He says, "Go gather your bills
and add them today.
I have this checkbook,
and I'd like to pay."

You pause for a moment.
This cannot be real.
But you would be foolish
to not take this deal.

Now here's the surprise
this story is true!
The door's not in your house,
it's inside of you.

The 'debt' is your sin
that you carry around.
But Jesus will pay it,
now how does that sound?

Yes, a check he will write
with salvation's pen.
There's a knock at your door,
won't you let him in?
