The Catholics and the Baptist

John Smith was the only Protestant to move into the
large Catholic neighborhood. On the first Friday of
Lent, John was outside grilling a big juicy steak on
his grill. Meanwhile all of his neighbors were eating
cold tuna fish for supper. This went on each Friday
during Lent. On the last Friday of Lent the
neighborhood men got together and decided that
something just HAD to be done about John, he was just
tempting them to eat meat each Friday of Lent and they
couldn't take it anymore. They decided to try and
convert him to be Catholic. They went over and talked
with him and were so happy that he decided to join all
of his neighbors and become a Catholic. They took him
to church and the priest sprinkled some water over him
and told him "Your were born a Baptist, you were
raised a Baptist and now you are a Catholic". The men
of the neighborhood were SO relieved, now their
biggest Lent temptation was resolved. The next year's
Lent rolled around. The first Friday of Lent came and
just at supper time when the neighborhood was setting
down to their fish dinner came the wafting smell of
steak cooking on a grill. The neighborhood men could
not believe their noses! What was going on??? They
called each other up and decided to meet over in
John's yard to see if he had forgotten it was a Friday
in Lent. The group arrived just in time to see John
standing over his grill with a small pitcher of water.
He was pouring small droplets over his steak on the
grill and saying, "you were born a cow, you were
raised a cow, and now you are a fish."
When Clinton left office they gave him a 21 gun salute. Its a damn shame they all missed....
