Redneck Lent A funny
REDNECK LENT
Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor
grill and cook a venison steak. But, all of Bubba's neighbors were
Catholic...and since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on
Friday.
The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing
such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their
priest. The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a
Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass...and as
the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, "You were born a Baptist,
and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic."
Bubba's neighbors were
greatly relieved, until the first Friday night arrived, and the wonderful
aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The neighbors called the
Priest immediately, and, as he rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary
and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully
sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:
"You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish."
