St Peter decides to take the day off to go fishing, so Jesus offers to keep an eye on the Pearly Gates. He is not sure what to do, so Peter tells him to find out a bit about people as they arrive in Heaven, and this will help him decide if he can let them in.
After a while, Jesus sees a little old man with white hair approaching who looks very, very familiar. He asks the old man to tell him about himself. The old man says, "I had a very sad life. I was a carpenter and had a son who I lost at a relatively young age, and although he was not my natural child, I loved him dearly."
Jesus welled up with emotion. He threw his arms around the old man and cried, "Daddy!"
The old man replied, "Pinocchio?"
An old one I know, but I like it.

Very good! I haven't visited the Ship of Fools for ages.
Good isn't it. It was posted a couple of years ago when they were looking at funny and edgy offensive jokes. I must admit I'm not religious but it is an interesting site.
Ha! :)
Good isn't it!
