Finally, the Baptist and Catholic got together on something:
A priest and a Baptist pastor invite the local rabbi to go fishing at their favourite spot, and spend a fine morning out on the lake, lines over the side of the boat, enjoying the day and each others' company so much, that in the style of all fishermen, they don't really care if they catch anything or not. After all, they can always pick something up at the supermarket on the way home. About noon, the priest pulls out his bag, then announces he has forgotten his lunch in the car. He vaults over the side of the boat, walks on the water to the shore and fetches it, walks back and re-enters the boat. At this point the pastor asks, "Did you bring the coffee thermos?" When it becomes apparent the priest forgot, the pastor also jumps over the side of the boat, walks on water to the parking lot and retrieves the missing elixir. The rabbi, noting all this, and grumbling silently to himself over the theological implications of what he has seen, finally offers a quiet prayer, announces that he, too, has left something of importance in the car, and, before either of his friends can stop him, steps out of the boat. He immediately sinks like a stone. Several minutes later, the others pull him in. He's sadly waterlogged, and unconscious from striking his head on an oar they had extended. After determining that he is, more or less, none the less worse for wear, the pastor turns to the priest. "Do you suppose," he asks thoughtfully," we oughta tell him about the rocks?"

Heeheehee...
A man was told that both his father and grandfather had been able to walk on water on their twenty-first birthdays. Hoping some of the luck had passed down to him, he took his boat out on the pond, stepped overboard, and sunk. Again and again he tried to walk on water, and came home a bedraggled failure.
"Hey, mom! I'm twenty-one today, and I can't walk on water! My ancestors did! What's the deal?"
"Son, they were born in January..."
**********
A man is lucky enough to discover a dog that can walk on water. He takes a pessimistic friend on a fishing trip to show him this dog's excellent talents.
On the boat, the pessimist complains constantly, about his life, the heat, the possibility of a leak, and about the dog-smell.
"Sir," said his friend, "I'm going to show you that life isn't as bad as you think, and miracles can happen. This dog can walk on water!" So, at a word from its master, the dog climbs out of the boat, and walks on the surface of the lake.
"Humph," says the pessimist. "You bought a dog that can't swim?"

Love It! This last one reminds me of someone I know and guess what, I'm always shocked with those comments. I just never expect people to be thinking negatively of something that seems so positive. Oh well!!
