In Another Woman's Arms
Among the
speakers were many well known motivational speakers. One such boldly approached the pulpit
and, gathering the entire crowd's attention, said, "The best years of my life were
spent in the arms of a woman that wasn't my wife!"
The crowd was shocked! He followed up by saying, "And that woman was my mother!"
The crowd burst into laughter and he gave his speech which went over well.
About a week later one of the ministers who had attended the seminar decided to use that
joe-k in his sermon. As he shyly approached the pulpit one sunny Sunday, he tried to
rehearse the joe-k in his head. It seemed a bit foggy to him this morning. Getting to the
microphone he said loudly, "The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of
another woman that was not my wife!"
His congregation sat shocked. After standing there for almost 10 seconds trying to recall
the second half of the joke, the pastor finally blurted out "... and I can't remember
who she was!"
