Christian Humor

This is one of the best clean jokes I've seen in awhile!

Jesus and Satan were having an on-going argument about who was better on the computer. They had been going at it for days, and frankly God was tired of hearing all the bickering.

Finally fed up, God said, 'THAT'S IT! I have had enough. I am going to set up a test that will run for two hours, and from those results, I will judge who does the better job.'

So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away.

They moused.

They faxed.

They e-mailed.

They e-mailed with attachments.

They downloaded.

They did spreadsheets!

They wrote reports.

They created labels and cards.

They created charts and graphs.

They did some genealogy reports

They did every job known to man.

Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and Satan was faster than hell.

Then, ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of course, the power went off.

Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld.

Jesus just sighed.

Finally the electricity came back on, and each of them restarted their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming:

'It's gone! It's all GONE! 'I lost everything when the power went out!'

Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours of work.

Satan observed this and became irate.

'Wait!' he screamed. 'That's not fair! He cheated! How come he has all his work and I don't have any?'

God just shrugged and said,

JESUS SAVES

I am...







What obsolete skill are you?




You are 'French'. In the nineteenth century, it was the international language of diplomacy. It is a 'beautiful' language, meaning that it is really just a low-fidelity copy of Latin.You know the importance of communicating 'diplomatically', which for you means both being polite and friendly when necessary and using sophisticated, vicious sarcasm when appropriate. Your life is guided by either existentialism or nihilism, depending on the weather. You have a certain appreciation for the finer things in life, which is a diplomatic way of saying that you are a disgusting hedonist. Your problem is that French has been obsolete for a long time.

A week of mixed emotions

This is the most personal entry I will ever post in this blog.

Last week was filled with mixed emotions for me and my wife.

After almost a year, we finally got what we were praying for. Cherry got a two-liner in her pregnancy test kit. She was pregnant. We were very excited with this development. Cherry started making lists of potential godparents while I was already thinking of a possible layout for the announcement postcard.

Last Wednesday, we went for her first ultrasound. We were saddened when the OB sonologist told us that she was having an ectopic pregnancy, with the baby stuck in her right fallopian tube. Her OB's reliever told us that it has to be removed right away to avoid endangering CHerry's life if her fallopian tube ruptured. Right there and then, we were advised to have her operated on the same day. We called her cousin, who is a nurse, to ask her if she can refer us to an OB we can trust since her original OB was on leave. turns out her cousin has an OB for a sister-in-law.

And so she was operated on, and the baby, and her right fallopian tube was removed. Our spirits were down because we just lost our first baby. But we knew we couldn't dwell on it for too long. As for me, I'm just glad I still have Cherry and we still have a chance to have a family.

A Moment Ago

On this starlit stroll in the park
loves mystic hand touched our soul
breathless whispers in the dark
our hearts touched, we were whole.
Trembling lips part with desire
fevered kisses fuel love's fire
eyes aglow with passions light
with looks of love... we ignite.
Oh, in a wondrous place
love brings its sweet embrace
so short this time, we both know,
we were only friends... a moment ago.
