Elijah

The Sunday school teacher was carefully explaining the story of Elijah the Prophet and the false prophets of Baal.

She explained how Elijah built the altar, put wood upon it, cut the steer in pieces and laid it upon the altar.

And then Elijah commanded the people of God to fill four barrels of water and pour it over the altar. He had them do this four times.

“Now, said the teacher, “can anyone in the class tell me why the Lord would have Elijah pour water over the steer on the altar?”

A little girl in the back of the room raised her hand with great enthusiasm. “To make the gravy,” came her enthusiastic reply.

Easiest To Operate On

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and discussing their work.

The first one said, “I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. Everything inside them is numbered.”

“I think librarians are the easiest,” said the second. “When you open them up, all their organs are arranged alphabetically.”

The third surgeon said, “I prefer to operate on electricians. Their organs are color-coded.”

“You’re all wrong,” said, the fourth. “Lawyers are easiest. They’re heartless, spineless, gutless and their heads and rear ends are interchangeable.”
