A laywoman was driving down the street in a sweat
because she had an important meeting and couldn’t find a parking space.
Looking up toward heaven, she said, “Lord, take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I’ll go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of my life and give up drinking wine.”
Miraculously, a parking space opened up right in front of her destination.
The woman looked up to heaven and said, “Never mind, Lord; I found one on my own.”
Couple going out
A woman drove to a parking garage searching for an open space, but she found none.
Then she noticed a couple walking just ahead. She slowly pulled alongside them and rolled down her window. She called out hopefully, “Going out?”
“No,” the man said, “we’re just friends.”
A lawyer returns to the parking lot
to find his sports car with the headlights broken and considerable damage to the front end.
There’s no sign of the offending vehicle but he’s relieved to see that there’s a note stuck under the windshield wiper:
“Sorry, I just backed into your car. The witnesses who saw the accident are nodding and smiling at me because they think I’m leaving my name, address and phone number. But I’m not.”
An overweight business associate of mine decided it was time to shed some excess pounds.
He took his new diet seriously, even changing his driving route to avoid his favourite bakery.
One morning, however, he arrived at work carrying a gigantic coffee cake. We all scolded him, but his smile remained cherubic.
“This is a very special coffee cake,” he explained.
“I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning, and there in the window was a host of goodies. I felt this was no accident, so I prayed, ‘Lord, if you want me to have one of those delicious coffee cakes, let me have a parking place directly in front of the bakery.’
“And sure enough,” he continued, “the eighth time around the block, there it was!”
