HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS

***** A while back I was rolling down Union in my old truck heading for the river . I had about 20 empty Coke cans in the back which made quite a noise when I stopped .

You know the lights on Union last a long time . Sometimes you think the light has fizzed out & stuck on red . So, you might wind up behind somebody for a while .

Well, I rolled up behind a brand new Mercedes - Benz. It was a beautiful silver color . E550 was across the back .

I knew the price of this ride was north of 50,000 dollars . Lord have Mercy, that is more than Chilli Pepper & I paid for our first two houses.

What was so unusual about this car was the bumper sticker . You don't see many 50,000 dollar cars with bumper stickers .

I knew they must have strong feelings about the message. The sticker said HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS !

Well, sitting there at the endless red light gave me time to think . I thought I certainly do love Jesus . So I gave 'em a good long toot.

The Mercedes door opened & out stepped Dorothy of the Golden Girls .Looked just like her anyway . Diamond necklace & a Diamond ring strutting her stuff.

I am thinking she's going to tell me " Praise The Lord or maybe Love You Brother ." I leaned out the window to get my praise .

She put one hand on her hip & pointed at the red light with the other . She said " You Fat Old Fool , You see that light is red'.

She then got back in the Mercedes ,slammed the door & roared off when the light changed .

I was so stunned I just sat there a moment . Then all the cars behind me began to blow their horns & yell go ,go , go.

I don't think I will do anymore Honking no matter what the sticker says.
