CLOSE THE GATES

Close The Gates
There's this cathedral that's still being worked on, and the
workers have rigged a "cage elevator" inside so they can get
material up and down to the upper floors. A characteristic of
these "cage elevators" is that the doors (gate) must be closed
manually for them to be "called" to another floor.
One day one of the workers, named Peter, takes the elevator
to the top floor, and it is subsequently needed on the first
floor by the sexton. Unfortunately, Peter forgot and left the
door open. After the sexton rings for the elevator a couple
times, to no avail, he yells up for the worker to send the lift
back down. Visitors to the cathedral were treated to this sight:
The sexton of the cathedral, head tipped up, yelling up to
the heavens:"Peter! CLOSE THE GATES!!!"
Tee ShirtMy kindergarten-aged daughter suddenly announced just before school
that she needed to take a clean tee shirt to class. She told us the
teacher
was going to iron an anti-drug message on it. My wife frantically swept
through my daughter's room, finding nothing usable but one tee shirt
that
already had something printed on one side. She sent it off to school
with
my daughter.That afternoon, my daughter returned and happily showed off her shirt.
On one side it said, "Families are Forever." And on the other,
"Be Smart, Don't Start."Science Teacher"Now remember boys and girls,"said the science teacher.
"You can tell a tree's age bycounting the rings in a cross section.One ring for each year."
Alec went home for dinnerand found they were having a
jelly roll for dessert."I'm not eating that, Mom,"he said,"It's five years old!"Have a Blessed DayDave and BarbaraNecessary Legal InformationI do not mail clean-hewmor unsolicited.
