1)Did I ever tell you about the oysters? 2)Oysters? 1)Tell you about
the oysters? 2)No. 1) Just think about all the millions of oysters
just lyin’ around at the bottom of the ocean. Then one day God comes
along and says I’m going to make that one different. Know what he
does? Puts a little piece of sand in it. Guess what it can do that
the others can’t. 2)What? 1) It can make a beautiful pearl. 2)What if
God made a mistake? 1) Well, the way I figure it he never makes

beat you to the chocolate cake!
1- Think that’s a big lake? You should’a seen the one next to our house. We used to swim in it…fish. I sure do miss it – sure do.
2- Well, what happened to it? Did it dry up?
1- No, worse than that. See, last fall a big flock of ducks – about forty or fifty of ’em – landed right smack in the middle of it. While they were sittin’ there, this flipped thing happened. See, the temperature dropped so fast, that the whole lake froze in three seconds, just like that.
2- All those poor little ducks…did it kill them?
1- Nah, they flew off and took the lake with ’em! Why to this very day, that lake is somewhere in Georgia.

1-Did you know they took out my gallbladder?

2-Yeah…from the whole town.
1-Mrs. Couch? Mrs. Couch!? Do you have a problem with your sexuality?
2-Uh….No, ma’am. But, I do have a problem with my girdle. Would you excuse me for a moment?
1-Where the hell you goin’ with my money?
2-We’re going home.
1.what the hell is this? Are you trying to kill me? 2.If I was gonna kill you I’d use my hands.

I had a dream the other night. I dreamt that Buddy was gone. I ran to his crib and there he was, sleeping like an angel. And you know, I thanked God for letting me still have Buddy. And I remember having the same reaction after Frank would beat me, thanking the Lord for giving me the strength to take it. And I remembered thanking the Lord for each day that my motehr lived. Even when she was spittin’ up blood and prayin’ for me to kill her. I looked into my mother’s eyes, pleadin’ for me to help her, and all I could do was pray. While… while you were gone, and I was holding Buddy, I thought, if that bastard, Frank Bennett, ever tries to take my child, I won’t pray… I’ll break his neck.
