BUBBA DURING LENT
>
> Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his

> 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 that he
> become a
> Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba
> attended Mass.
> 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 filled
> the
>
> neighborhood. The priest was called immediately by the
> neighbors, and,
> as he rushed into Bubba's yard, clutching a rosary and
> prepared to
> scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
>
> There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water
