The Manhattan Commuter train was packed. Suddenly there was a jingle on the floor. Most necks were craned. One elderly gentleman, however, bent down and picked something up.
"Did anyone drop a toonie?" he asked.
"I did," answered three men at once.
"Well," said the elderly gent with a smile, "here's a dime of it."

You should always let weeping logs dry.

This morning around 11 am, my 12 year old son, Michael, and I stopped at a coffee shop so I could get some coffee. Michael came in with me and spied the Chocolate Oreo brownie.
I rarely splurge on treats like this, but since his brother and Dad were away on a scout camp trip, I decided I would pamper Michael a bit and get it for him.
When he was half done, I realized he hadn't even had breakfast yet!
I said "Michael, you need to take care of your body, and breakfast is included in that taking care of it. Your body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit."
After a very short pause, he replied: "But Mom, the Holy Spirit wasn't hungry this morning."
