Because this blog has been a little sad lately…

January 26, 2007 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Humor, Minnesota Me, odds and ends 5 Comments

Here are a couple of happy diversions!

The first is in the form of a very cute joke that my husband sent me.

And the second–perhaps our favorite–an internet quiz!

I. Very Cute Joke

One day God was looking down at Earth and saw all of the rascally behavior that was going on.

So he called one of his angels and sent the angel to Earth for a time.

When the angel returned, he told God, “Yes, it is bad on Earth. 95% are misbehaving and only 5% are not.”

God thought for a moment and said, “Maybe I had better get a second opinion.”

So he sent another angel down to Earth for a time.

When that angel returned he went and reported to God, “Yes, it’s true. The earth is in decline. 95% are misbehaving and only 5% are being good.”

God was not pleased. Not pleased at all.

So he decided to e-mail the 5% that were good, because he wanted to encourage them and help them multiply.

Do you know what the e-mail said?

OK, I was just wondering, because I didn’t get one either….

II. Internet Quiz

How Smart Are You? Have the kids take this one! You’ll be surprised (or not) at how clever your offspring can be!

Have a blessed weekend, everyone! : )

    Thanks for the great laughs this morning! No email here either!
    My son and I got a 2 on that silly test! Have a great weekend! I am going to a Catholic Women’s conference in Rockville tomorrow, so I won’t get a chance to check, but you will be in my prayers!

    well…Ok, I will probably check late tomorrow night! šŸ™‚

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♄
