  1. A Funny Story

    Share Share Post
    Once upon a time there was a special Service held in a church at which there was a great crowd. There were two women in a pew by themselves, one of them was very sleepy and when the minister went to preach she fell asleep, and woke up all of a sudden.
    "Oh said she to the other lady "how are your hens laying."
