On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big,
old pecan tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two
boys filled
up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight,
and began
dividing the nuts.
"One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me,"
said one boy. Several dropped and rolled down toward the
fence.
Another boy came riding along the road on his
bicycle. As he passed, he thought he heard voices from inside
the cemetery. He
slowed down to investigate.
Sure enough, he heard, "One for you,
one for me. One for you, one for me."
He just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike
and rode off. Just around the bend he met an old man with a
cane,
hobbling along.
"Come here quick," said the boy, "you won't believe
what I heard! Satan and the Lord are down at the cemetery
dividing up the
souls."
The man said, "Beat it kid, can't you see it's hard
for me to walk." When the boy insisted though, the man hobbled
slowly
to the cemetery.
Standing by the fence they heard, "One for you, one
for me. One for you, one for me."
The old man whispered, "Boy, you've been tellin' me
the truth. Let's see if we can see the Lord."
Shaking with fear, they peered through the fence,
yet were still unable to see anything. The old man and the boy
gripped the
wrought iron bars of the fence tighter and tighter as they
tried to get a
glimpse of the Lord.
At last they heard, "One for you, one for me. That's
all. Now let's go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done."
They say the old man made it back to town a full 5
minutes ahead of the
kid on the bike.
SMILE, God Loves You!

Sam: Uh, you do realize she's an evil mind-controlling spirit from another dimension?
Tucker: Yeah, but you said the same thing about Paulina.
