Grillin'

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and Cook A venison steak. But, all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic ..
And since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a Problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their Priest.

The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested he become a Catholic.
After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass ... And as the Priest sprinkled Holy Water over him, he said, "You were born a Baptist, and Raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic."

Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the Wonderful aroma of grilled venison again filled the neighborhood.

The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors and as he rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.

There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted: you wuz born a deer, you wuz Raised a deer, but now you'se a catfish.

Ouch. Glad I'm a recovering Catholic. I'm wondering if that would work when I visit my folks during Lent........

I'm one of those guys.....

But I always figured if the big man was that serious about it he would make meat disappear during Lent
