The Good Samaritan
A man is in bed with his wife when there is a knock on the door.
He rolls over and looks at his clock, and it's half past three in the morning. "I'm not getting out of bed at this time," he thinks, and rolls over. Then, a louder knock follows.
"Aren't you going to answer that?" says his wife.
So he drags himself out of bed and goes downstairs. He opens the door and there is man standing at the door. It didn't take the homeowner long to realize the man was drunk. "Hi there," slurs the stranger, "Can you
give me a push?"
"No, get lost. It's half past three. I was in bed," says the man
and slams the door. He goes back up to bed and tells his wife what happened and she says, "Dave, that wasn't very nice of you. Remember that night we broke down in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up from the baby sitter and you had to knock on that man's house to get us started again? What would have happened if he'd told us to get lost?"
"But the guy was drunk," says the husband.
"It doesn't matter," says the wife. "He needs our help and it would be the right thing to help him."
So the husband gets out of bed again, gets dressed, and goes downstairs.
He opens the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he shouts, "Hey, do you still want a push?"
And he hears a voice cry out, "Yeah, please,"
So, still being unable to see the stranger he shouts, "Where are you?"
The drunk replies, "Over here, on the swing."

It was a poster advertising service. In big letters, it said "on sight child care!". These posters are up all over the place. Shouldn't it be "On-site"?
Ah well... I know why I don't go to church.
Here's one especially for Angie: A while ago, there were two headlines on a news site (I think it was Yahoo) right next to each other, saying
Ratzinger neuer Papst
Teufel tritt zurück
(maybe not these exact words, but something very similar)
English translation:
Ratzinger new Pope
Devil resigns
😉
While "Teufel" means "devil", it's also the name of a German politician (the devil sits in the Christian Democratic Union 😉 ).
