Enemies

Here’s a giggle from someone we haven’t heard from for a while…our darlin’ Ami over at Ami's StarsongSmile

Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"

80% held up their hands.


The Minister then repeated his question.

All responded this time, except one man, an avid golfer named Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.


"Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf.  It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"

"I don't have any," he replied gruffly.


"Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?"

"Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands.


"Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down to the front and tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years and not have an enemy in the world?"


The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply,  "I outlived the bastards."

  3. Ha! Talk about Grumpy Old Men. However, if I make it to 98, I want to be just as blunt and forthright. The really crazy old bat in the nursing home! When is Happy Hour?
