A circus owner walked into a restaurant to see everyone crowded around a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside down pot and a duck tap dancing on it.

 

The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing, they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot.

 

Three days later the circus owner runs back to the restaurant in anger, "Your duck is a rip-off! I put him on the pot before a whole audience and he didn't dance a single step!"

 

"So?," asked the duck's former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?"

A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender, "If I show you a really good trick, will you give me a free drink?" The bartender considers it, then agrees.

 

The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out a tiny rat. He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out a tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues. The bartender pours the man a drink on the house and he puts the rat and piano away.

 

After the man finished his drink, he asked the bartender, "If I show you an even better trick, will you give me free drinks for the rest of the evening?" The bartender agrees, thinking that no trick could possibly be better than the first.

 

The man reaches into his pockets again and pulls out the tiny rat and tiny piano. The rat stretches, cracks his knuckles, and proceeds to play the blues. The man reaches into a third pocket and pulls out a small bullfrog, who begins to sing along with the rat's music.

 

While the man is enjoying his beverages, a stranger confronts him and offers him $100,000.00 for the bullfrog. "Sorry," the man replies, "he's not for sale." The stranger increases the offer to $250,000.00 cash up front. "No," he insists, "he's not for sale." The stranger again increases the offer, this time to $500,000.00 cash. The man finally agrees, and turns the frog over to the stranger in exchange for the money.

 

"Are you insane?" the bartender demanded. "That frog could have been worth millions to you, and you let him go for a mere $500,000!"

 

"Don't worry about it," the man answered. "The frog was nothing special. You see, the rat's a ventriloquist."

"Wow, that's great", said Jennifer, "I'll take 12 yards".

To the preacher he said, "My son, do you see that little cottage with the white gate and all the flowers down there in the valley? The one over there just beyond the creek?" The preacher said he did. The Lord then told him that this was now his heavenly home and this is where he would be spending eternity.

The Lord then turned to the bus driver and said, "My son, do you see that big stately mansion up there in the hills? The one just to the right of the waterfall where the golden path leads up to it?" The bus driver said he did. The Lord then told him that this was now him heavenly home and this is where he would be spending eternity.

With this the preacher turned to the Lord and with amazement exclaimed that there must be some mistake. "I have been your loyal servant all of my life." He went on to explain to the Lord that he was truly a man of God. The preacher said, "Lord, I accepted you as my savior when I was just a child. I studied your word as a young man, than preached your gospel the rest of my life. How can it be that I am to spend eternity in this small cottage when the bus driver gets the mansion in the hills?"

The Lord replied. My son, it is true that you have been my loyal servant. And, both of you have been in a position to influence my children.

However, while you preached, my children slept. It was while he was driving that they prayed!
