Just a Minute
Here’s a belated Father’s Day present to all you
Dads out there...
A man was riding his Harley along a California beach when suddenly the sky
clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, ‘Because
you have tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one
wish.’ The biker pulled over and said, ‘Build a bridge to Hawaii so I
can ride over anytime I want.’ The
Lord said, ‘Your request is materialistic, think of the enormous
challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports required to reach
the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would take! It
would nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is
hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Take a little more
time and think of something that could possibly help mankind.’ The biker
thought about it for a long time. Finally, he said, ‘Lord, I wish that I
and all men could understand women; I want to know how she feels inside,
what she’s thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she
cries, what she means when she says nothing’s wrong...and how I can make
a woman truly happy.’ The Lord replied, ‘You want two lanes or four on
that bridge?’
