Pay Up
A nervous taxpayer was unhappily conversing with
the IRS Tax Auditor who had come to review
his records.
At one point, the auditor exclaimed, “Mr. Carr,
we feel it is a great privilege to be allowed to live
and work in the USA. As a citizen you have an
obligation to pay taxes, and we expect you to
eagerly pay them with a smile.”
“Thank goodness,” returned Mr. Carr, with a giant grin
on his face. “I was afraid you wanted me to pay
with cash.”

Be Careful Following The Crowd
A missionary recruit goes to Venezuela for the
first time, struggling with the language.
He visits one of the local churches and sits in the
front row. So as not to make a fool of himself,
he decides to pick someone out of the crowd
to imitate. He decides to follow the man sitting
next to him in the front pew.
As they sing, the man claps his hands, so the
missionary recruit claps, too. When the man stands up
to pray, the missionary recruit stands up, too.
When the man sits down, the missionary sits down.
Later in the service, the man next to him stands up
again, so the missionary stands up, too.
Suddenly a hush falls over the entire congregation.
A few people gasp. The missionary looks around
and sees that no one else is standing. So he sits down.
After the service ends, the missionary recruit greets
the preacher. “I take it you don’t speak Spanish,”
the preacher says.
The missionary replies, “No, I don’t. It’s that obvious?”
“Well yes,” the preacher says. “I announced that the
Acosta family had a new-born baby boy, and I asked
the proud father to please stand up…”
