Now, said the Sunday School teacher, who was not glad to hear of the Prodigal Son's return? Please, Sir, replied one little boy, the fatted calf! An old lady was posting a gift of a Bible to a relative. The post office clerk examined the heavy parcel and enquired if it contained anything breakable. Nothing, the old lady replied, but the Ten Commandments. ************************ God promises a safe landing but not a calm voyage. Bulgarian proverb.
