The Free Fridge

The Free Fridge

Raymond purchased a new fridge. The local council wanted $20 to remove his old fridge in an environmentally friendly fashion. So in order to save money he put it in his front garden with a sign that read, “Free to a good home. You want it, please take it.”

The fridge stood untouched for 4 days! Raymond changed his tactics.

He made a sign saying, 'Fridge for sale $50.' One day later the fridge disappeared and stolen.

The Easter Story

Jesus had many enemies who wanted to be rid of him. Jesus knew that he had only a short time left. The Thursday before he died, Jesus invited the disciples to have supper with him. It was their last meal together. “Remember me,” Jesus  told them, “when you eat the bread and drink the wine. I am going to live with my Father in heaven, but I will be with you wherever you go.” On Friday, soldiers arrested Jesus and nailed him to a cross. Jesus said to God: “Father, forgive them.

Make two cup of coffee too. A friend of mine will be coming soon. Make the mangoes and coffee when he comes,” Ramu took the mangoes to the kitchen and cut them with a knife. Then, to make sure they were not sour, he put one piece in his mouth. Ah, how sweet it tasted! If I eat just one more piece, the master will never know,” he thought. He put one more piece into his mouth, one more… In a few minutes, the plate was empty! Ramu felt a little frightened. The master was sure to beat him.

He had already eaten up the mangoes. He thought quickly, and got an idea. “Oh master,”he replied. “The knife is blunt. I can’t cut the ma

The Clever Student

One day a student was taking a very difficult essay exam. At the end of the test, the prof asked all the students to put their pencils down and immediately hand in their tests. The young man kept writing furioulsy, although he was warned that if he did not stop immediately he would be disqualified. He ignored the warning, finished the test 10 minutes later, and went to hand the test to his instructor. The instructor told him he would not take the test.The student asked, "Do you know who I am?" The prof said, "No and I don't care." The student asked again, "Are you sure you don't know who I am?" The prof again said no. So the student walked over to the pile of tests, placed his in the middle, then threw the papers in the air. "Good" the student said, and walked out. He passed.
