Miss Bea was in her 80's and much admired for her sweetness and kindness
to all. The pastor came to call on her one afternoon early in the Spring
and she welcomed him into her Victorian parlor. She invited him to have
a seat while she prepared a little tea. As he sat facing her old pump organ,
the minister noticed a cut glass bowl setting on top of it, filled with
water. In the water floated, of all things, a condom. Imagine his shock
and surprise. Imagine his curiosity; surely Miss Bea had flipped! But he
certainly couldn't mention the strange sight in her parlor. When she returned
with tea and cookies they began to chat. The pastor tried to stifle his
curiosity about the bowl and its strange floater, but soon it got the best
of him, and he could resist no longer. "Miss Bea," he said, "I wonder if
you would tell me about this." Pointing to the bowl. "Oh, yes," she replied,
"Isn't it wonderful! I was walking down town last fall and I found this
little package. It said to put it on your organ and keep it wet, and it
would prevent disease. And you know, I think it is working, I haven't had
a cold all winter!"
Q) Why did the condom fly across the room?
A) It got pissed off!
