An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the
boy should give some thought to choosing a profession.

Like many young men, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do,
and he didn't seem too concerned about it.

One day, while the boy was away to school, his father decided to try an
experiment. He went into the boy's room and placed on his study table
four objects.

A bible
A silver dollar
A bottle of whisky
And a playboy magazine.

'I'll just hide behind the door', the old preacher said to himself.
'When he comes home from school this afternoon, 'I'll see which object
he picks up.

If it's the bible, he's going to be a preacher like me and what a
blessing that would be!

If he picks up the dollar, he's going to be a business man, and that
would be okay, t oo.

But if he picks up the bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunkard, and
Lord, what a shame that would be.

And worst of all if he picks up that magazine he's going to be a
skirt-chasing bum.

The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his son's foot-steps as he
entered the house whistling and headed for his room.

The boy tossed his books on the bed, and as he turned to leave the room
he spotted the objects on the table.

With curiosity in his eye, he walked over to inspect them

Finally, he picked up the Bible and placed it under his arm. He picked
up the silver dollar and dropped into his pocket. He uncorked the bottle
and took a big drink while he admired this months centerfold.

'Lord have mercy.' the old preacher disgustedly whispered.

'He's gonna run for Congress.'

very funny!

OMG that's funny as hell!!1
