Be careful what you say to a stewardess on your flight. It may be misconstrued and she's not taking any chances. This guy was escorted off the plane when he asked if there was a meal being served! Perhaps we are all getting too "terror" sensitive!!!
One morning a man came into the church on crutches. He stopped
in front of the holy water, splashed some on each leg, and then
threw away his crutches.
An alter boy witnessed the scene and then ran into the rectory to
tell the priest what he'd just seen.
"Son, you've just witnessed a miracle," the priest said. "Tell me
where is this man now?"
"Flat on his ass over by the holy water," said the boy.

I finally met the perfect girl I couldn't ask for more
She's blind and deaf and dumb as a rock
And owns a liquor store
