A minister decided that a visual
demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon.
Four worms were placed into four separate jars.
The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup.
The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil.
At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the
following results:
The first w orm in alcohol - Dead.
The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead.
Third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead.
Fourth worm in good clean soil - Alive
So the Minister asked the congregation - What can you learn from
this demonstration?
A little old woman in the back quickly raised her hand and said,
"As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't
have worms!"
Don't you just love little old
ladies????

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD

2) Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can
get.
3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while
you're down there.

bothers to ask you the questions.
6) Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.
