Ashley McKee Karl keeps sending me jokes so I’m sharing them with you: A Minnesota couple decided to vacation to Florida during the winter. They planned to stay at the very same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier.

Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday. His wife would fly down the following day.

The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the e-mail.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband’s funeral. He was a minister of many years who was called home to glory following a sudden heart attack.

The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends. After reading the first message, she fainted. The widow’s son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read: To: My Loving Wife Subject: I’ve Arrived Date: 16 May 2003. I know you’re surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send e-mails to your loved ones. I’ve just arrived and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is not as uneventful as mine was. P.S. Sure is hot down here! —kwc— A mother asked her 5-year-old what they taught in Sunday School this week.

She said, “Don’t worry you’ll get your blanket.”

Puzzled, the mother went to the teacher and ask what the lesson was, he said “The Comforter has come.” —kwc— A pastor went to the dentist for a set of false teeth. the first Sunday after getting his teeth, he preached for only eight minutes.

The second Sunday he preached for only 10 minutes.

But the following Sunday he preached nonstop for nearly three hours until the congregation realized he couldn’t quit and finally helped him sit down.

Concerned for his health they asked, “Are you Okay? What happened?”

The pastor explained, “Well, the first Sunday with my new teeth, my gums were so sore I couldn’t preach longer than eight minutes. The second Sunday I felt I could go a little longer to 10 minutes.

“But today I mistakenly put my wife’s teeth in and discovered I couldn’t shut up!” —kwc— How do we know that Jesus and his disciples drove a Honda?

Because the scripture tells us that they were all together in one Accord.
