Title: Jokes of the Day: Good King Wenceleslas
Post by: Shin on August 13, 2010, 09:05:56 PM
Good King Wenceleslas went out to the pizza parlour and ordered a pizza. The assistant asked Do you want your usual? Deep pan, crisp and even?


Adam was walking outside of the Garden of Eden with Cane and Abel when the boys were young. Cane and Abel looked into the garden and viewed waterfalls, lovely birds, lush forests and fruit trees bending over because of the large amounts of fruit on them.

Then they took a long look at where they lived at. It was dry, dusty with weeds and sickly-looking trees.

"Daddy? Why don't we live in there instead of out here?" they asked innocently.

Adam said, "Well sons. Eve and I use to live in there at one time. But your mother ate us out of house and home."


After a very long and boring sermon the parishoners filed out of the church saying nothing to the preacher. Towards the end of the line was a thoughtful person who always commented on the sermons."Pastor, today your sermon reminded me of the peace and love of God!" The pastor was thrilled. "No-one has ever said anything like that about my preaching before. Tell me why." "Well - it reminded me of the Peace of God because it passed all understanding and the Love of God because it endured forever!"

You have to listen to the Christmas carol, 'Good King Wencelaus'! It's one of my all-time favorites!

Bing Crosby did a great job of it!

The third one is especially hilarious.

Patricia, I had to read the first one twice before I got it and luckily I'd sung it a number of times in school.

I always felt drawn to sing Christmas carols every August. It's good to know I'm not the only one.
