The twinkies and root beer thing is somewhat
country, but I think you have something, maybe look into it and develop the
theme a bit, for us the stupid reader.

Subject: [FairfieldLife] Fwd: Twinkies
and Root Beer
A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long
trip to where
God lived, so he packed his suitcase with Twinkies and a
six-pack of
Root Beer and he started his journey.
When he had gone
about three blocks, he met an elderly man. The man
was sitting in the park
just feeding some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to him and opened his
suitcase. He was about
to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed
that the man
looked hungry, so he offered him a Twinkie.
The man
gratefully accepted it and smiled at boy. His smile was so
pleasant that
the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered him a
root
beer.
Again, the man smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat
there
all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a
word.
As it grew dark, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up
to
leave, but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned
around, ran back to the man, and gave him a hug. The man gave him
his biggest smile ever.
When the boy opened the door to his own
house a short time later,
his mother was surprised by the look of joy on
his face. She asked
him, "What did you do today that made you so
happy?
"He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother could
respond, he added, "You know what? God's got the most beautiful
smile
I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the elderly man, also radiant with joy,
returned to his
home. His son was stunned by the look of peace on his face
and he
asked, "Dad, what did you do today that made you so
happy?"
He replied, "I ate Twinkies in the park with God." However,
before
his son responded, he added," You know, he's much younger than I
expected."
