Johnny Misunderstood the Plaque
One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Johnny was standing and staring up at the large plaque that hung in the foyer of the church.
The young man of seven had been staring at the plaque for some time,
so the pastor walked up and stood beside him.
Gazing up at the plaque, too, he said quietly,
“Good morning son.”
“Good morning pastor” replied the young man, not taking his eyes off the plaque.
“Sir, what is this?” Johnny asked.
“Well son, these are all the people who have d*ed in the service,” replied the pastor.
Soberly, they stood together staring up at the large plaque.
Little Johnny’s voice barely broke the silence when he asked quietly,
“Which one sir, the 8:30 or the 10:30 service?”

“Hey, Mom,” asked Little Johnny,
“can you give me twenty dollars?”
“Certainly not!” answered his mother.
“If you do,”
Little Johnny went on,
“I’ll tell you what dad said to the maid when you were at the beauty shop.”
His mother’s ears perked up and, grabbing her purse, she handed over the money.
“Well? what did he say?”
“He said, ‘Hey, Juanita, make sure you wash my socks tomorrow.’”
