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 decided to talk 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 Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of
>grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The Priest was called
>immediately by the neighbors, and as he rushed into Bubba's yard
>clutching a rosary preparing 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."
