Subject: HUMOR: PECAN NUTS
At The Cemetery
On the outskirts of town, there was a big old pecan tree by the cemetery fence.
One day two boys filled up a bucket with pecans and sat down by the tree, out
of sight, and began dividing the nuts.
"One for you, and one for me. One for you, one for me," said one boy. Several
were dropped and rolled down toward the fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he passed, he thought
he heard voices from inside the cemetery. He slowed down to investigate.
Sure enough, he heard, "One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me."
He just knew what it was. "Oh my," he shuddered, "It is Satan and the Lord
dividing the souls at the cemetery."
He jumped back on his bike and rode off. Just around the bend he met an old man
with a cane, hobbling along.
"Come here quick," said the boy, "You won't believe what I just heard. Satan
and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up souls."
The man said. "Beat it, kid, can't you see it is hard for me to walk?"
When the boy insisted, the man hobbled to the cemetery. Standing by the fence
they hear, "One for you, one for me. One for you, one
for me"
The old man whispered, "You you've been telling the truth ! Let's
see the devil himself."
Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence, yet were still
unable to see anything. The old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron bars
of the fence tighter and tighter as they tried to
get a glimpse of Satan.
At last they heard, "One for you, one for me. And one last one for
you. That's all. Now let's go get those nuts by the fence, and we'll
be done."
They say the old guy made it back to town 5 minutes before the boy!!.
