Dress Temptation

Struggling to make ends meet on a first-call salary, the pastor was livid when he confronted his wife with the receipt for a $250 dress she had bought.

"How could you do this?"

"I was outside the store looking at the dress in the window, and then I found myself trying it on,"  she explained.  "It was like Satan was whispering in my ear,  ' You look fabulous in that dress. Buy it! ' "

"Well," the pastor replied, "You know how I deal with that kind of temptation."  I say,  "Get behind me, Satan!"

"I did," replied his wife, "but then he said, ' It looks fabulous from back here, too! ' "

"Has he finished yet?" he was asked.

"Yes," said the man who had just escaped. "He finished long ago, but he just won’t stop."

I´d be glad to.

A man writing at the post office desk was approached by an older fellow with a post card in his hand.

"Certainly sir," said the younger man, "I'd be glad to."
He wrote out the address and also agreed to write a short message and sign the card for the man. Finally, the younger man asked, "Now, is there anything else I can do for you?"

The old fellow thought about it for a moment and said, "Yes, at the end could you just add,
PS:  Please excuse the sloppy hand-writing.?"
