A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of his father
as to when they could discuss his use of the car.
His father said he'd make a deal with his son: 'You bring your grades
up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, and get your
hair cut. Then we'll talk about the car.'
The boy thought about that for a moment, decided he'd settle for the offer,
and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks his father said, 'Son, you've brought your grades up
and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible, but you haven't
had your hair cut.
The boy said, 'You know, Dad, I've noticed in my studies of the Bible
that
Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long
hair...and there's even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.'
To this his father replied, 'Did you also notice they all walked everywhere
they went?' I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.
