stickers on cars

[John9362]

The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.

As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer
Ordered her to exit her car with her hands up..

He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a holding cell.

After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him.

I noticed the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me to Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally....

I assumed you had stolen the car."

True story.  In my sordid youth, I drove my VW bug with it's Jesus bumper stickers to an adult book-store.  So as not to be a 'bad witness', I covered them with a rag.  Then I forgot to remove the rag on the way home, and the exhaust pipe burned it.  That rag was about as holy (holey) as I was.

So true of all of us.

How we have tried to live up to the ideals of Christendom.  And failed.

Thank God, I'm done with all those stickers.  And the facade of Christendom.

That's a funny story Dave! I'm curious, what made you forget the rag?

OOOOH MAAAN! YOU CRACKED ME UP!!!!

[Dave in Tenn]

I don't remember what made me forget.  I'm not as young as I used to be, nor as good-looking.

Hey Dave,
Since we are telling stories on ourselves from our youth, why not show us a photo of yours from the days of your wild youth. Go ahead, take a chance!

Not wild at all, but from about that time.  I'm so glad Jesus came to save sinners.

I don't have many pics, Bob, and much fewer digitized.  I'll try to dredge one up.  You have to go too, though.

Actually, that pic on this page is about as good a one as I have.
