Three Men friends from an Al-Anon group decided to spend a Saturday hiking and enjoying nature. By mid afternoon they were tired, frustrated, and even though they all knew it.... none of the three would admit to being lost. They continued to walk until they stumbled across a raging river. They realized with darkness only hours away their only hope was to cross the raging river because they could see civilization in the distance on the other side. But they had no means to cross the river.
After much thought the first man asked his HP to give him the strength and courage to cross the river...Poof....The man was given swimming gear, fins and gargles. He jumped in the river fighting the current for 45 minutes going under twice and almost drowning. Finally exhausted and coughing up water he reached the other side.
The second man realizing there was no way he could possibly swim across the river asked his HP for a canoe and paddles to take him to safety on the other side....Poof....a canoe with two metal paddles appeared at the edge of the river. He jumped in the canoe and began to paddle but the current was so swift it pushed him downstream hundreds of yards, he was thrown from the canoe twice but fought the battle of his life and eventually by the grace of God reached the other side and safety.
The third man didn't have a clue how he would get to the other side, because he couldn't swim and was terrified of water.
He thought for a few minutes and then asked his HP for "Super Intelligence", "knowledge", and the "Commom Sense", to cross the river.....Poof....He was turned into a woman and given a map. After checking the map for only a minute "she" walked up stream a few hundred yards and crossed a bridge to the other side.
The ladies in my home group and MIP raised me in this program. Much credit goes to you ladies helping me to safety on the "other" side of a raging river. Thanks.
Ok the laughter I got from this deserves an I love you.hahahahaha
I do love men. I think it is cool that "some" men admit to women also having a huge part in intelligence.AND that that intelligence does not deminish the mans cute bum....(c:
One of the Al-Anon jokes that always made me smile.....
Several people were in line awaiting execution at the guillotine..... The 3rd person in the line happened to be an Al-Anoner..... The first person in the lineup puts his head in the guillotine, and the executioner drops the blade, only to have it hang up by a mechanical malfunction, just inches from the person's neck.... The executioner decides that this surely must be a "sign from above", and lets the person go free. The second person goes to the guillotine, and the exact same thing happens, and he also gets set free. The third person - the Al-Anoner - prior to putting his head in the guillotine tells the executioner "I think I can fix that!!"
Thanks for the smile Tom
