We walked in, sat down, and within 5 minutes I started getting angry. Up and down the aisles you had these ushers handing out little bags of toys. I couldn't believe it. Well time went on and we got to the sermon and the more the pastor spoke, the angrier I got. You think I could find one of those ushers with the little bags of toys?"
I too have heard this story.

As to the "Joke Assassination" the only advice I can offer is "Never give up. Never surrender!"
