INNOCENCE IS PRICELESS


One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alexis standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names and small American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the little girl, and said quietly, 'Good morning Alexis.'
'Good morning Pastor,' she replied, still focused on the plaque. 'Pastor, what is this? '
The pastor said, 'Well, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service.'
Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque. Finally, little Alexis's voice, barely audible and trembling with fear asked,'Which service, the 8:30 or the 10:30?'

I'm so glad that you've finally admitted that you are a 6'1", bmxing, polka lover. I was tired of you acting like a loser.
