MAMA'S BIBLE

Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors
and lawyers.

One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed
the Christmas gifts they were able to give their elderly mother who moved to Florida.



The first said, "You know I had a big house built for Mama."


The second said, " And I had a large theater built in the house."


The third said, "And I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her."


The fourth said, "You know how Mama loved reading the Bible and you
know she can't read anymore because she can't see very well. I met this preacher who told me about a parrot that can recite the entire Bible.

It took ten preachers almost 8 years to teach him. I had to pledge to
contribute $50,000 a year for five years to the Church, but it was
worth it. Mama only has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot
will recite it."


The other brothers were impressed. After the holidays Mom sent out her Thank You notes.



She wrote: " Milton, the house you built is so huge that I live in only
one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway."



"Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home, I have my groceries
delivered, so never use the Mercedes. The thought was good. Thanks."



"Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound and it can hold 50 people, but all of my friends are dead. I've lost my hearing
and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. Thank you for the gesture just
the same."



"Dearest Melvin,

You were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought
to your gift. The chicken was delicious.

Thank you so much."


Love, Mama”
