Greetings Saints in Jesus name!

I've heard all of these before (but I tell them in slightly
longer version)... nonetheless, they are wonderful little
stories that'll cause you go grrrrroooooooaaaaaaan at the 
moral at the end of each.... enjoy!

Bro. Tyler

While a King is out of the country, a neighboring evil wizard steals
his golden throne.  When the king returns, he sends an expedition
out to recover it.  The wizard is out at the time as they arrive and
his castle looks to be undefended with the drawbridge down.  The foot
soldiers are sent across first.  As they get half way across,
suddently, giant yellow hands come out of the moat and fling them
off the bridge to drown. All the mounted knights go charging across
next. Again, the yellow hands toss them into the river and they all
drown. All that's left are a handful of young pages. They tiptoe
quietly across the bridge and the yellow hands don't detect them.
They grab the throne and get away.  

Moral: Let your Pages do the Walking thru the Yellow Fingers.

Part II: On the way home they get tired. A farmer & his wife who
live in a sod house let them stay overnight in their barn.  While
they are sleeping, the greedy farmer kills them and puts the golden
throne in his attic.  But the weight of the throne is too heavy, and
it bursts through the attic floor, killing the farmer & his wife
below in bed as they sleep.  

Moral:  People who live in Grass houses shouldn't Stow Thrones.

Part III: Meanwhile back at the castle, the king discovers that one
of his Counts helped the wizard with the theft.  He threatens to chop
his head off unless he tells who else was involved in the plot.  The
count denies all knowledge of the affair and is sent to the block. 
The executioner raises his axe but the count still won't talk. As the
axe starts to fall, the Count blurts out: "Wait! I'll tell you
every.....urk" but it's too late to stop the blow.  

Moral: Don't Hatchet your Counts before they Chicken.
