Alabama Preacher

[Baz]

The Alabama preacher said to his congregation, "Someone in this congregation
has spread a rumor that I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a horrible lie and
one which a Christian community cannot tolerate. I am embarrassed and do not
intend to accept this. Now, I want the party who did this to stand and ask
forgiveness from God and this Christian family."

No one moved.

The preacher continued, "Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a
falsehood? Remember, you will be forgiven and in your heart you will feel glory.
Now stand and confess your transgression."

Again all was quiet.

Then slowly, a drop-dead gorgeous blonde with a body that would stop traffic
rose from the third pew.

Her head was bowed and her voice quivered as she spoke, "Reverend there has
been a terrible misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux
Klan. I simply told a couple of my friends that you were a wizard under the
sheets."

The preacher fainted, and the congregation roared.

This has some good embellishments. But I'm amazed it took 40 years to travel from Virginia to NSW.

Joe, don't accuse Canberra of being in NSW - residents of neither place will appreciate it.

Canberra is in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), which is a separate world bordered on all sides by NSW.

Somewhat akin to Washington DC, and just as much in touch with reality

Ooooops! I guess my map is too small scale; at the same scale DC would look like it's in Maryland. Maybe I should read the text too.

[Alas, DC's unreality extends into the MD and VA suburbs. (I lived there quite long enough to know.)]
