Career Move…
An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the
boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like many
young men,
"I'll just hide behind the door," the old preacher said to himself, "and
when he comes home from school this afternoon, I'll see which object he
picks up." If it's the Bible, he's going to be a preacher like me,
and what a blessing that would be! If he picks up the dollar, he's
going to be a businessman, and that would be okay, too. But if he
picks up the bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunkard, and, Lord,
what a shame that would be."
The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his son's footsteps as he entered the house whistling and headed for his room. He tossed his books on the bed, and as he turned to leave the room he spotted the objects on the table. With curiosity in his eye, he walked over to inspect them. Finally, he picked up the Bible and placed it under his arm. He picked up the silver dollar and dropped it into his pocket. He uncorked the bottle and took a big drink.
"Lord have mercy," the old man whispered, "he's gonna be a Congressman!" |

Sunday, January 31st, 2010 is Backwards Day 
the
boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't seem too
concerned about it. One day, while the boy was away at school, his
father decided to try an experiment. He went into the boy's room
and placed on his study table three objects: a Bible, a silver dollar,
and a bottle of whisky.
