A clergyman was walking down the street when he came upon a group of about a dozen boys, all of them between 10 and 12 years of age.
The group surrounded a dog. Concerned lest the boys were hurting the dog, he went over and asked "What are you doing with that dog?"
One of the boys replied, "This dog is just an old neighborhood stray. We all want him, but only one of us can take him home. So we`ve decided that whichever one of us can tell the biggest lie will get to keep the dog."
Of course, the reverend was taken aback. "You boys shouldn`t be having a contest telling lies!" he exclaimed. He then launched into a ten minute sermon against lying, beginning, "Don`t you boys know it`s a sin to lie," and ending with, "Why, when I was your age, I never told a lie."
There was dead silence for about a minute. Just as the reverend was beginning to think he`d gotten through to them, the smallest boy gave a deep sigh and said, "All right, give him the dog."

Wanting to help, he asked the man, 'Do you live here?'
'Yesh,' the man slowly replied.
'Would you like me to help you upstairs?' Banta asked.
'Yesh,' the man slowly sputtered. - War Veterans Santa mistakenly gets on a bus full of war veterans, but upon discovering it is going his way, decides to stay on for the ride.
He sits down next to a guy that jerks his head to the left every few seconds, over and over.
This really bothers Santa so he asks him, 'What's wrong with you?'
The reply is, 'I got this in the war.'
