Pastor Jones was out on Wednesday night visitation. He had decided to visit Mrs. Smith, an elderly widow who had been housebound for many years.

As he sat talking with her, he kept helping himself to the dish of peanuts on the coffee table. After an hour of conversation he realized that he'd eaten all the peanuts from the dish.

"I'm so sorry, Mrs. Smith, I really didn't mean to eat all your peanuts."

"Oh, that's perfectly OK, Pastor." she said. "Ever since I got these new dentures, the best I've been able to do is lick all the chocolate off them."
