The morning of the test, Joe entered the auditorium and took a seat in the front row. On the table in the front was a row of ten stuffed birds. Each bird had a sack covering its body, and only the legs were showing. When class started, the professor announced that the students were to identify each bird by looking at its legs and give its common name, species, habitat, mating habits, etc.
Joe looked at each of the birds' legs. They all looked the same to him. He started to get angry. He had stayed up all night studying for this test and now he had to identify birds by their LEGS? The more he thought about the situation, the angrier he got.
Finally he reached his boiling point. He stood up, marched up to the professor's desk, crumpled up his exam paper and threw it on the desk. "What a ridiculous test!" he told the prof. "How could anyone tell the difference between these birds by looking at their legs? This exam is the biggest rip-off I've ever seen!"
With that, Joe turned and stormed toward the exit. The professor was a bit shocked, and it took him a moment to regain his composure. Then, just as Joe was about to walk out the door, the prof shouted out, "Wait a minute, young man, what's your name?"
Joe turned around, pulled up his pant legs and hollered, "You tell me, professor! You tell me!"
On a lighter Note 3rd October 2014
So he calls his deacon to tell him he is sick. The deacon agrees to preach on his behalf.
So the priest grabs his golf clubs. He drives for a while, finding a course where he wouldn't be recognized, and starts playing his game.
He tees up on the first whole, squares off, and hits the ball. To his great surprise, it flies perfectly off the tee, heads downrange, and onto the green. To his further surprise, when he gets to the green, he finds that the ball had landed in the hole.
The priest it jubilant. Never, in 20 years of golfing has he been able to hit a hole in one. He grabs his ball and moves onto the next hole.
There he tees up, takes a few practice swings, and hits the ball. Again, it flies perfectly down the course, and this time before he even heads down the course he is sure the ball is in the hole.
Hole after hole this continues. The priest is jubilant. It's the best golf game he has ever had!
Up in heaven, Jesus is sitting beside God watching the priest. He looks over and says, "Are you really going to let him get away with this?"
God smiles. "Who is he going to tell?" He replies.
