Have You Been To Grace?
 

There IS a Grace, NC, which I am only mentioning so I can relate a little *funny* ... :p

AMAZING GRACE

After twenty years of shaving himself every morning, a man in a small Southern town decided he had had enough. He told his wife that he intended to let the local barber shave him each day. He put on his hat and coat
and went to the barbershop, which was owned by the pastor of the town's Baptist church.

The barber's wife, Grace, was working that day, so she performed the task. Grace shaved him and sprayed him with lilac water and said, "That will be $20." The man thought the price was a bit high, but he paid the bill and went to work.

The next morning the man looked in the mirror and his face was as smooth as it had been when he left the barbershop the day before. "Not bad," he thought, "At least I don't need to get a shave every day." The next
morning the man's face was still smooth! Two weeks later the man was STILL unable to find any trace of whiskers on his face. It was more than he could take, so he returned to the barbershop.

"I thought $20 was high for a shave," he told the barber's wife, "but you must have done a great job. It's been two weeks and my whiskers still haven't started growing back."

The expression on her face didn't even change, as she was expecting his comment. She responded, "You were shaved by Grace. Once shaved, always shaved." ;;)

...TTT...

Surely, one of my Southern Baptist, Protestant or Evangelical friends on Fodors *got* this and smiled??? :p Maybe I just have a silly sense of humor.... :-d

I got it! I got it! and I'm Catholic!! You have a great sense of humor bonnieb! :-)

dcespedes, delighted that you are smiling with me! :-d I was SURE someone was! (I also like the one about the horse sitting down at the bar, and the bartender asking him why he has such a long face........ :p )

I loved it, and will pass it on if you don't mind! :)

Bonnie - Thank you for topping this as I missed it the first time! I will definitely share this with my morning bagel group as they will find it a hoot! In fact, I can think of several places to pass it on to! Don't know the one about the horse, tho....

I don't either, continue please... ;-)

:-D I get it, Bonnie! I'll have to share this with my pastor. Thanks for the chuckle!

Well, guys, regarding the horse ...
it's just plain silly ... you need to think about it! :-) ;;)

"A horse walks into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender serves him, and says, "Ahhhhhhhhhh, fellow, you can talk to me! Why the long face?" :-d

hee,hee :D By golly, I got it!

Bonnie, that is too cute! :-D
