"Free Paper"
My dry cleaner very generously gives each customer a free copy of the daily newspaper. As I took my copy, I told him, "I hope the business grows enough to offset the cost of the papers."
"Oh, don't worry about us," he said. "Nothing dirties clothes more than newsprint."

A pastor thought that the reason he had no one coming to the altar week
after week was because his sermons were too short. The next week he decided
to preach for an hour and a half. Sure enough, 18 people came down the aisle
to the altar to lay down after the first hour of preaching.
He thought it was odd, though, that none of them got up after he was done.

will!"
