Subject: BLAGUES-L: Three couples From: Philippe Reid >From lmcnesa Tue Aug 6 19:42:51 1996 Three couples wanted to join a local church; an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple and a newlywed couple. They all went down front and made their intentions known to the minister. The minister told them that their church had a policy that you had to remain celibate for a month before you were allowed to join. They should go home and then return in a month to let them know how it went. One month later they returned and the minister started with the elderly couple and asked how it went. The gentleman replied: "Well, I didn't have any trouble at all until last night, but we made it! No sex for a month!" The minister said, "Well then, we're happy to have you as members of our church!" He then turned to the middle-aged couple and the gentleman replied: "Well, the first three weeks were no problem. However, the fourth week was rough and for the last two nights I had to sleep in the other room not to have sex with my wife but we made it! No sex for a month!" To which the minister replied, "Well then, we're happy to have you as members of our church!" He then turned to the newlywed couple and asked how it went. The the young man replied: "Well, the first day was no problem. The next three days were torture. I felt like I was going to explode. Then, on the fifth day, as my wife was bent over the freezer I couldn't control myself any more and I took her! Right there on the freezer!" The minister said, "Well, I'm sorry but you are not welcome as members of our church." The young man replied, "That's okay, we're not welcome at the supermarket anymore either!"
