Subject: FWD: The Baptist Church dinner

 
    

A group of friends from the Cottonwood Baptist Church wanted to get together
on a regular basis, socialize, and play games. The lady of the house was to
prepare the meal. 

When it came time for Al and Janet to be the hosts, Janet wanted to outdo
all the 
 She decided to have mushroom-smothered steak. But mushrooms
are expensive. She then told her husband, "No mushrooms. They are too high."
He said, "Why don't you go down in the pasture and pick some of those
mushrooms? There are plenty in the creek bed." 

She said, "No, some wild mushrooms are poison." 

He said, "Well, I see varmints eating them and they're OK." So Janet decided
to give it a try. She picked a bunch, washed, sliced, and diced them for her
smothered steak. 

Then she went out on the back porch and gave Ol' Spot (the yard dog) a
double handful. Ol' Spot ate every bite. All morning long, Janet watched Ol'
Spot and the wild mushrooms didn't seem to affect him, so she decided to use
them. 

The meal was a great success, and Janet even hired a helper lady from town
to help her serve. After everyone had finished, they relaxed, socialized,
and played '42' and dominoes. About then, the helper lady came in and
whispered in Janet's ear. 

She said, "Mrs. Williams, Ol' Spot is dead." 

Janet went into hysterics. 

After she finally calmed down, she called the doctor and told him what had
happened. 

The doctor said, "That's bad, but I think we can take care of it. I will
call for an ambulance and I will be there as quickly as possible. We'll give
everyone enemas and we will pump out everyone's stomach. Everything will be
fine. Just keep them calm." 

Soon they could hear the siren as the ambulance was coming down the road. 

The EMTs and the doctor had their suitcases, syringes, and a stomach pump. 

One by one, they took each person into the bathroom, gave them an enema, and
pumped out their stomach. 

After the last one was finished, the doctor came out and said, "I think
everything will be fine now," and he left. They were all looking pretty weak
sitting around the living room and about this time the helper lady came in
and whispered to Janet, "You know, that fellow that run over Ol' Spot never
even stopped  

"
