>> A preacher was making his rounds to his parishioners on a bicycle,
>> when he came upon a little boy trying to sell a lawn mower. "How much
>> do you want for the mower?" asked the preacher. "I just want enough
>> money to go out and buy me a bicycle", said the little boy.
>>
>> After a moment of consideration, the preacher asked, "Will you take
>> my bike in trade for it?" The little boy asked if he could try it out
>> first, and after riding the bike around a little while said, "Mister,
>> you've got yourself a deal."
>>
>> The preacher took the mower and began to try to crank it. He pulled
>> on the rope a few times with no response from the mower. The preacher
>> called the little boy over and said, "I can't get this mower to
> start."
>>
>> The little boy said, "That's because you have to cuss at it to get it
>> started."
>>
>> The preacher said, "I am a minister, and I cannot cuss. It has been
>> so long since I have been saved that I do not even remember how to
> cuss."
>>
>> The little boy looked at him happily and said, "Just keep pulling on
>> that rope. It'll come back to ya!"
