         Winter  2004

From classmate Rev. Rudy Roell….

    A  highway  patrol  officer  was  driving  behind  a  man who was
weaving all over the road.  The officer stopped the man and asked "Sir, have you been drinking ?"  The man said, "No sir, I'm a preacher."

The officer asked: "What's in that wine bottle beside you ?"  The man answered, "Water of course !"  The officer opened the bottle, took a sniff, and said, "Sir, there is wine in this bottle !"

The preacher then replied: "PRAISE THE LORD, HE HAS DONE IT AGAIN !"
                           ***************************

A young couple invited their pastor for Sunday dinner.  While the were in the kitchen preparing the meal, the minister asked the son what they were having.   "Goat,"  the little boy replied.  "Goat ?" asked the startled man of the cloth, "Are you sure about that ?"

"Yep," said the youngster.  "I heard Dad say to Mom, 'Might as well have the old goat for dinner today as any other day."

  *****************************

A minister parked his car in a No Parking zone in a large city          because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a   parking meter.  Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read:  "I have circled the block ten times.  If I don't park here I'll miss my appointment.  Forgive us our trespasses."

When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer, along with this note: "I've circled this block for ten years.  If I don't give you a ticket I'll lose my job.  Lead us not into temptation."

"Time capsules"  that missed the last issue………  Some things get to the Editor's desk just a bit too late.  That happened to a couple of photos that deserved to be with copy the last time around.  We felt certain they belonged here  rather than the waste basket, and trust you agree.

A Note from the Editor………
(That fancy feline with the furry finery above)

Here we are again with some bits and pieces that  we trust  will  merit your interest.   Some usual segments have been moved around  or shortened to make room for the report on  the current  batch of  young  Tigers who are getting ready  to go out and cope with world affairs -- and,  we're  sure,  improve  them.    In  the meantime, if you have comments, suggestions, news, photos or 'funnies' to share,  please send them along  to our cub reporter:
