Ok looks like everyone is sleeping here so here is another one enjoy,




[font=Courier New][size=2]As a young minister, I was asked by a funeral director to hold a


>grave-side service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends. The

>funeral was to be held at a cemetery way back in the country, and this

>man would be the first to be laid to rest there.

>

> As I was not familiar with the backwoods area, I became lost; and

>being a typical man did not stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late.

> I saw the backhoe and the crew, who was eating lunch, but the hearse

>was nowhere in sight.

>

> I apologized to the workers for my tardiness, and stepped to the

>side of the open grave, where I saw the vault lid already in place. I assured

>the workers I would not hold them up for long, but this was the proper

>thing to do. The workers gathered around, still eating their lunch. I

>poured out my heart and soul.

>

> As I preached the workers began to say "Amen," "Praise the

> Lord," and "Glory," I preached, and I preached, like I'd never

>preached before: from Genesis all the way to Revelations.

>

> I closed the lengthy service with a prayer and walked to my car.

>

> As I was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of

>the workers saying to another, "I ain't never seen anything like that

>before, and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."
