A Joke for Your Evening

This comes by way of Phoebe. Always good to break up the serious with the silly:

A burglar breaks into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables, when he heard a voice in the dark:


"Jesus knows you're here!"


He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze.


When he heard nothing more, after a bit, he shook his head and continued.


Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, he heard clear as a bell:


"Jesus is watching you!"


Freaked out, he shined his flashlight around frantically, looking for the source of the voice.


Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on... a parrot.


"Did you say that?" he hissed at the parrot.


"Yep", said the parrot and then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you that he is watching you!"


The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?"


"Moses" said the parrot.


"Moses?!" the burglar laughed, "What kind of people name a bird Moses?"


"The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler Jesus!"

Phoebe, that is too funny. I even had Susan's brother Ed laughing at this one. Bless you.
