Apr 2015

It's a hot Southern day and 3 guys are having a beer in the local hangout - a blind guy, a guy with 1 arm, and a local redneck.

"You won't believe this," says the one-armed man. "But I see Jesus Christ sitting down at the end of the bar."

"No I don't believe it," says the blind guy. "What does he look like?"

"Just like in all the pictures. Hippie hair. Beard. Nail holes. Hey bartender! Give my man Jesus a beer!"

The bartender slides a beer down the bar. Jesus says "Thank you, my son." He gets up, walks down the bar, and touches the one-armed man gently on the shoulder.

"Holy shit! My damn ARM growed back!"

The blind man quickly yells for the bartender to set up Jesus. Again Jesus thanks him, and touches his eyes.

"I can SEE! I can SEE!"

The redneck gets up, starts for the door, and yells: "Don't you touch me, you bastard! I'm collecting Disability!"
