unccpathfinder Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it was getting time the boy should give some thought to choosing a profession. Like any young men, the boy didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he didn't seem too concerned about it. One day, while the boy was away at school, his father decided to try an experiment. He went into the boy's room and placed on his study table four objects: - A Bible - A silver dollar - A bottle of whisky - And a Playboy magazine Having done this, the old preacher said to himself, "I'll just hide behind the door" and w hen he comes home from school this afternoon, I'll see which object he picks up first. If it's the Bible, he's going to be a preacher like me and what a blessing that would be! If he picks up the dollar, he's going to be a businessman, and that would be okay, too. But if he picks up the bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunkard, and, Lord, what a shame that would be. And, worst of all, if he picks up that magazine he's gonna be a skirt-chasing bum." The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his son's footsteps as he entered the house whistling and headed for his room. The boy tossed his books on the bed, and as he turned to leave the room he spotted the objects on the table. With curiosity in his eye, he walked over to inspect them. Finally, he picked up the Bible and placed it under his arm. He then picked up the silver dollar, did a coin flip and dropped it into his pocket. Next he uncorked the bottle whisky and took a big drink while he admired this month's centerfold. Having just witnessed this sequence of events the old preachers legs grew weak and he said to himself, "Sweet Jesus have mercy us" the old preacher whispered, "he's gonna run for Congress".
