    Bicycle and the Lawnmower

    I heard something like this awhile back, but I still laughed. I hope You do too. Bill

    A preacher was making his rounds on a bicycle, when he came upon a little boy trying to sell a lawn mower.

    'How much do you want for the mower?' asked the preacher.

    'I just want enough money to go out and buy me a bicycle,' said the little boy.

    After a moment of consideration, the preacher asked, Will you take my bike in trade for it?'

    The little boy asked if he could try it out first, and, after riding the bike around a little while, said, 'Mister, you've got yourself a deal.'

    The preacher took the mower and began to crank it He pulled on the rope a few times with no response from the mower.

    The preacher called the little boy over and said, 'I can't get this mower to start.'

    The little boy said, 'That's because you have to cuss at it to get it started.'

    The preacher said, I can't cuss. It's been so long since I became a Christian that I don't even remember how to cuss.'

    The little boy looked at him happily and said, 'You just keep pulling on that rope. It'll come back to ya.

      I liked that one a lot!

      Reminds me of a story my grandpa used to tell. He bought a spiffy new powered lawn mower but the lawn never got mowed because my dad and uncle claimed the mower wouldn't start. After a few times my grandpa hung the new one up in the garage and gave them the reel mower again. A month later he got the new one back down and just left it for them to find. It always started after that.

      The chief cause of failure in this life is giving up what you want most for what you want at the moment.
