A man walked into a restaurant in a strange town. The waiter came and asked him for his order. Feeling lonely, he replied, “Meat loaf and a kind word.”<\/p>\n
When the waiter returned with the meat loaf, the man said, “Where’s the kind word?”<\/p>\n
The waiter put down the meat loaf and sighed, bent down, and whispered, “Don’t eat the meat loaf.”<\/p>\n

A man lying on his deathbed called to him, his lawyer, his doctor, and his pastor. “I am going to die tonight,” and I want to prove that when you go to heaven you can take it all with you. So to my three most trusted friends, you three of course, I am leaving 50,000 dollars in these envelopes. When I die you must come to my funeral and put the envelopes in my coffin with me.” The man handed the three men identical envelopes.<\/p>\n

Then the lawyer said plainly \u201cYou bunch of crooks! I wrote him a check for the full amount!”<\/p>\n

This offering went on for more than three years. The two of them never spoke.<\/p>\n
