One Sunday, in counting the money in the weekly offering,

the pastor of a small Florida church found a plain pink envelope

containing $1000. It happened again the next week.

The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was

collected and saw a little old lady put the distinctive pink

envelope in the plate.

This went on for weeks until the pastor, overcome by

curiosity, approached her. 'Ma'am, I couldn't help but

notice that you put $1,000 a week in the collection plate, he

stated.

'Why yes,' she replied, 'every week my son sends me money,

and I give some of it to the church.'

The pastor replied, 'That's wonderful, how much

does he send you?'

The old lady said, '$10,000 a week.'

The pastor was amazed. 'Your son is very successful;

what does he do for a living?'

'He is a veterinarian,' she answered.

'That is an honorable profession,' the pastor

said. 'Where does he practice?'

The little old lady said proudly, 'In Nevada. He has

two cat houses in Las Vegas and one in Reno.'

What a nice old lady! Bet the pastor wouldn't turn down the money, even considering the source. I mean, what's he gonna do, tell the old lady not to take her son's money that he dutifully sends?

He could be in the Mafia, after all... that would be worse...

Reminds me of the scene in "The Jerk" where mama is reading a letter from Navin. She thought his girlfriend was really nice by offering him some work. Said that if he was good she would give him a couple of bl0w jobs. :sign5:
